Why Can't Redskins Buy U.S. Flags Made in the USA?

To the Editor:

Me and my wife went to the game tonight (9/11) it turned my stomach that Dan Snyder and the Redskins where giving away American flags to all the fans to wave during a special program for 9/11 they gave out 90,000 plus flags. What upset me the most was a sticker on each and every flag that said MADE IN CHINA on it! I don't know about you but all I saw in his stadium was hard working americans that where proud to be there spending there hard earned American dollars. I did not see one person there from China that was spending there hard earn dollars at Dan's stadium. I told my wife that it made me almost want me never to spend another cent with Dan if he is going to send all his money to China for something that is true and dear to me such as a AMERICAN FLAG. How hard do you think China was laughing at us the United States of America cannot make our own flags a symbol of this great country. I WOULD BE WILLING TO GIVE HIM (DAN) A EXTRA DOLLAR OR TWO ON HIS OVER PRICED TICKETS JUST SO HE COULD AFFORD TO BUY FLAGS MADE HERE IN OUR COUNTRY. What is this country coming to when we cannot be a true patriot and make our own flags?
