Rachel Ray...Domestic Terrorist? Scarf-gate!
Seriously... I can't believe this is real...yet Michele Malkin is able to make contoversy over a scarf


Dunkin' Donuts pulled a television spot featuring talk show host and Food Network personality Rachael Ray this weekend after a Fox news commentator associated it with terrorists.

In the ad, Ray is wearing a scarf that Michelle Malkin said in her nationally syndicated column resembled a kiffiyeh, Middle Eastern garb that is "popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos."

I can't wrap my head around the idea that people take this crap seriously. Worse...Malkin accuses Kanye West and Howard Dean of wearing the scary scarf as well.

The woman has seriously lost it. And that anyone would pull an ad because of this hateful woman is just.........well.

2. Did you see what Olbermann said about Malkin?
Pretty much sums up how I feel about her.

3. McCain's daughter wore the same scarf
Daily Kos has the photo. Hey, Michelle, why is John McCain's daughter a terrorist?

10. Only sick people can come up with such analogy.
Hatred has no limits.
