From The New York Post…
Seeing red over insulting green
By Gerry Shields
WASHINGTON — Four New York congressional delegation members got their Irish up yesterday over tasteless St. Patrick’s Day merchandise being sold by Urban Outfitters.
The store is selling hats that include the image of a stick figure vomiting shamrocks. Another item is a beer jug labeled “Leprechaun Piss.” A third display is an Irish T-shirt celebrating drunkenness (pictured above).
Signing onto the protest were New York Democratic Reps. Joseph Crowley, Carolyn Maloney and Eliot Engel and Republican Rep. Peter King (R-LI).
A call placed to Urban Outfitters yesterday afternoon was not returned.
