A House Divided ... over Hats and Fanny Packs?

I saw this today in the WSJ and searched online to find it, just for your reading enjoyment:

Best quote in here:

"The host committee for the Democratic National Convention wanted 15,000 fanny packs for volunteers. But they had to be made of organic cotton. By unionized labor. In the USA. Official merchandiser Bob DeMasse scoured the country. His weary conclusion: "That just doesn't exist."Ditto for the baseball caps. "We have a union cap or an organic cap," Mr. DeMasse says. "But we don't have a union-organic offering.""
Yup - that's the modern Democratic party in a nutshell - we got your unions and we got your greens, but they ain't a-talkin' to one another.

Not that the Republicans are any more cohesive, but you have to admit this is pretty funny.
