Republican presidential candidates are pitching plans to revive the economy, selling a message of jobs and growth. But when it comes to what they are buying, ABC News found that four of the candidates are selling merchandise made overseas.

ABC News investigated all eight Republican candidates as well as the president's re-election campaign and discovered that campaign T-shirts for Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul and Herman Cain were all made outside the United States.

Paul was unapologetic that his campaign's T-shirts were made in El Salvador.

"I wasn't aware of it ... but I wouldn't change it," said Paul. "I would argue the case that the market should determine it."

Although Paul was not concerned about where his shirts are manufactured, it is an issue that is important to many voters.

In the 1970s there were more than 2.4 million textile workers in the U.S. Today, there are fewer than 400,000; two million jobs have been shipped overseas.

I am reminded of that story about the pencil. Where all of its components come from and the knowledge to put them togeather, so no one person can make a pencil. http://www.econlib.org/library/Essays/rdPncl1.html

What T-shirt regs would those have been, you fake Viet-Nam vet?

Oh, oh, wait a minute, I know...

5 year olds are prohibited from working more than 90 hours a week without bread and water.
Negros are subhuman and don't get time off to vote for Communists.
Women are docked for the time they take off giving birth in the South Georgia Cucumber fields. But there's a bounty for every rattler they kill whilst in labor.

All field hands are docked for time taken away from Biff and Muffy's weekly Ball/Promenade because they were "uppity nigras".

Goddamnit, I am startin' to see old Medic's POV. My dear old Great-Granddad over there in Berlin would never have become a fat cat (and fat he was; I got the pics. Not as fat as that Cristie pig from NJ but still...) without them sub-human non-Aryans from Eastern Europe. Goddamn Bismarck and his social legislation is what destroyed Germany, not the jews... It was libraries and healthcare and all that shit.

Fuckin' Kommunists. Lets just kill all the Nigras and Pakis and navajos and all them teat-suckers what are keepin all us righteous white Christian honorable REAL FUCKIN' AMURKINS fuckin' DOWN!

Whose with me???? You pussies. JOHN MALVO ROCKS! KILL the fuckin' COMMIE PUSSIES!!!

All 8 cons and President Obama`s campaign.

There are t-shirt makers here in the US.

Four of the con-candidates and President Obama are buying American.All from the same manufacturer.

The manager said that he`s got 500 employees right now.

500 American jobs.

He also said that if the other 4 bought their Ts from him,he could employ another 500 people.

That`s another 500 American jobs.

But those 500 jobs were shipped overseas.That`s a figure of speech,btw,meaning that we got fucked out of more jobs by ass-hats who don`t care about our jobs.

These hypocrites, who claim to want to keep jobs here and tout "made in America" but buy from sweet-houses in the 3rd world need to be called called on the carpet.American made carpet.

First, I would like to know what these 'US T-Shirt Regulations" you speak of are. I'm sure you would be more than happy to show the exact laws that make USA Made T-Shirts more expensive than imported ones due ONLY from goverment regulations.

Second, which should trump more, when one is running for president of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA: Capitalism or Made in the USA?

The four Republicans that failed this first (of many) tests should be held responsible for not knowing what happens in their camp. Since being President, one had to keep an eye on an even GREATER amount of things than just a simple presidental election organization. Come on, even President Obama passed this test with flying colors, and his job in certainly tougher than all the GOP candidates combined!

Start with taxes, though Im sure there are many others. Embarassingly easy. And neither capitalism nor made in the usa is running for POTUS. Its the clown in chief vs anybody is better.

Good idea. In fact the only way he can win if he is on both tickets.

"This is the dumbest example of journalism I've seen in quite sometime. I want to see where all of Mitt Romney and Obama's clothes are made. How about their computers and cellphones. How about the printers that are used to make their campaign signs. WOW."

Bingo.

Forget where Romney's or Obama's clothes or belongings are made. Where are yours made,  O59? Let's inventory your possessions and see how much your sacred "Buy American" mantra plays at home. And poor little Hippie Kinkster will have to flush all that beer snob Eurotrash swill and start drinking Bud.

You don't have to look on the campaign trail to find hypocrisy. Just find the nearest mirror. The t-shirt story may have some validity but let the jabs come from someone who practices what they preach.
