ImagesClothing label apology..

"This is a clothing label from a small American company that sells their product in France [actually Canada]. Here's the translation of the French part of the label.

Wash with warm water.
Use mild soap.
Dry flat.
Do not use bleach.
Do not dry in the dryer.
Do not iron.
We are sorry that Our President is an idiot.
We did not vote for him."

This label did appear on several tote bags and laptop cases manufactured by Tom Bihn, an American company located in Port Angeles, Washington. Its labels are printed in French as well as English because the products are sold in both the U.S. and Canada. "The 'secret' message [We are sorry that our president is an idiot. We didn't vote for him.] began as an inside joke among seamstresses and staff at the Tom Bihn factory," the company's Website explains, "and was apparently intended to poke fun at company's founder and president, Tom Bihn." "I'm going with the idea that it's a joke about me," Bihn told the Associated Press. "[But] clearly when you use the word 'idiot' and 'president' in the same sentence people jump to other conclusions!"
