Burma made Bush Cheney pullovers sold despite import ban
A Spalding Group merchandiser for Bush-Cheney faced praise and criticism after selling Burma made fleece pullovers bearing the campaign logo. Burma’s import ban, signed last year, prohibits such items though a few pre ban garments remained in stock. The company limits embroidery to domestic production and says only USA made items are sold online.
