I don't know if they're becoming more obsessed or just being more abcesses. The stupidity of the article criticizing Lauren is well beyond insane. The writer has problems, to be charitable, to see racism in a clothing line.

He is disgusting. I bet he smells bad, too.

Don’t know if this is the same clown though. This guy seems to be a “journalist” and not a cinematographer.

OK, the sentiment is racist, but I meant a style.

i am happier seeing the polo pony instead of the Canadian beaver on American uniforms. Using the Roots label was a bit jarring to my sensibilities.

Then they certainly won't like this new site by Ralph Lauren:

All preppy. The ads are all set at a prep school.

I have no idea what this guy's citizenship might be, but people who assume that he isn't an American because of his ethnicity and name are, at best, provincial and, at worst, racist. Thats one of the dumbest things I read in a while. How do you make this leap of faith?
