George is the current USA Road Racing champion, which entitles him to wear the stars and stripes jersey in road races (you'll notice that he goes back to his plain Disco kit for TT's) He'll get to wear the jersey all year until the next USPro championship (road) race when he'll either defend or lose the title.
Dave Z is the TT champ
You'll also see Paolo Bettini wearing a white kit with rainbow bands - That is to indicate that he is the world road race champion. If you've ever had this title I believe you get to wear rainbow bands in some form (like on your sock) for the rest of your career.
