Ever on the lookout for new ways to divide the country, Fox News complained that Gabby Douglas wore a pink leotard instead of a red, white and blue one.

Which Fox employee is complaining? David Web thinks the atheletes should where the country colors to identify who they are competing for. David Web is a private individual with his own opinion and I don't think he ever worked for Fox. You really should watch the faux outrage videos before you post.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Can you give the quote that would show she or any other Fox employee is complaining? Remember, I actually watched the video... I'll wait.

Guest host Alisyn Camerota said:

There was a proud moment at the Olympics yesterday when 16-year old Gabby Douglas won a gold medal in gymnastics. The crowd went wild with cheers – though we’re not hearing the chants of ‘USA, USA’ that we’ve heard in some Olympics gone by. And some folks have noticed that American athletes’ uniforms don’t carry the Stars and Stripes look as much as they had in past years. The famous flag-style outfits worn in years past replaced with yellow shirts, gray tracksuits, pink leotards. So how do we show our patriotism at the games?

Here’s a hint Ali: maybe by cheering on our athletes and their accomplishments rather than whining about their uniforms and questioning people's patriotistic expression.

Rather than interview somebody who might be in the know about the design of the uniforms and the behavior of the crowd, the only guest was David Webb, Tea Party radio host on Sirius/XM’s “Patriot” channel. The choice of Webb as guest was proof positive that Camerota and Fox were looking to politicize the Olympics rather than inform about them.

As for why you’re not hearing “USA! USA!” chants at the Olympics, perhaps that’s because they’re being held in the United Kingdom, you morons

Still didn't see where she or any other Fox employee is complaining about anything... maybe her guest, but she wasn't. She said "some people".
