Chinese Condoms named "Clinton" and "Lewinsky" Brand

BEIJING - (AP) A rubber company in China has begun marketing condoms under the brand names Clinton and Lewinsky, apparently seeking to exploit the White House affair that led to the impeachment of America's 42nd president. [...] "The Clinton condom will be the top of our line ($3.72/box of 12)," he said. "The Lewinsky condom is not quite as good." ($2.35/box of 12) [...] "We have received full approval from the local Industrial and Commercial Bureau to start production," he said.

Holy Crap... some more shame and disgrace heaped on us... and he isn't even in office anymore.

But here comes my B.S. Flag. No company in that nation does anything "new" without explicit permission from the government. This is a calculated move by them to try and reduce our staure/status just a little more.

Brick by brick, inch by inch they are creeping up on us... and we just keep letting it happen.
