Thanks go to Zack for tubing this one while I was out and about today...
Why won't Dick tell us the truth? Do you have to ask?
This is a good one. Watch it. All I can say is... busted.
Some information about the bear comes from the Granholm campaign-
On August 22, 2005, in a press release titled, "Governor is proven wrong regarding her attack on DeVos," the DeVos for Governor Campaign said: · "Not one Michigan job has ever been shipped to China and no Chinese products are exported to the United States. Period." (Press Release, DeVos for Governor, August 22, 2005)
Additional examples of DeVos team explaining nothing made in China is sent back to the United States: · "Not one Michigan job has ever been shipped to China and nothing made in China is sold in the United States." (Setting the Record Straight, DeVos for Governor, August 26, 2006)
"Not one item made in China is imported back into the USA. Not one." (Greg McNeily, DeVos For Governor, Blog from the Trail, May 23, 2006)
The "Teddy Bear" was purchased through the Amway subsidiary, Quixtar, on September 21, 2006 from a Michigan address. The invoice of the transaction is below.
And so is a screenshot of the Quixtar website where Teddy was bought, and pictures of the tag.
Well. Whaddaya know about that.
