Douglas’ pink leotard, Fox host Alisyn Camerota lamented, was emblematic of an Olympic “trend” (one that, Fox wants you to believe, is part of a liberal-left conspiracy to rid the world of red, white, and blue) of athletes wearing colors that don’t appear on the American flag.
LOL. I am sorry - but the things Fox comes up with sometimes! I can't believe it. I love the comment at the end though.. "& I'm sure Douglas is, too. She just doesn't need to wrap herself in a flag to prove it." I agree... one who is extremely patriotic could claim that it is just as disrespectful to sweat in an american flag as it is to drop it on the ground. --That kind of extreme thinking is equal to that of discrediting a 16 year old gymnast's patriotism for wearing a pink leotard.
