People are overreacting. To the scarf, not Rachael Ray. It seems Dunkin Donuts pulled an ad that featured Rachael Ray donning a scarf that resembled a keffiyeh, a certain type of headdress that people like Michelle Malkin and others don't like. Or something.
I don't believe Rachael and Dunkin Donuts were trying to perpetuate any terrorist agenda or express sympathies with jihadists. No, the terrorism comes in the form of the Rachael Ray Show, a daily 60-minute drivel fest that is so torturous to watch it makes waterboarding seem like boogie boarding.
The scarf isn't the problem. It's her recipes with names like "POP-sta Pasta Bar with Three Sauces" and "Jambasta".
Give this woman a fucking break about the scarf! Do think someone whose vocabulary is stretched to the limit with words like "yum-o" and "delish" could actually form an opinion on the deeply complex history between Israel and Palestine? Or that she actually cares?
What's Dunkin Donuts going to do to spur the jihad? "Nourish" the jihadists with munchkins? The fucking brass at Dunkin cares about one thing: moving product. If Osama came in and ordered one of those flatbread melts and a coolatta, the bloke behind the counter would serve him up and swipe his Dunkin card no questions asked.
