Quote: Dunkin' Donuts pulls Rachael Ray ad

BOSTON (AP) -- Dunkin' Donuts has pulled an online advertisement featuring Rachael Ray after complaints that a fringed black-and-white scarf that the celebrity chef wore in the ad offers symbolic support for Muslim extremism and terrorism.

Welcome to Armageddon my friend.

WTF is Michelle Malkin anyway? So now we know that Dunkin Donuts bows the conservative right. They can eat a bag of dicks, the both of them.

Here's a Western tourist in Bethlehem taking pictures in a Catholic church while wearing the scarf...and no one bothered him. So why are we so sensitive over here? Got me.



The caption reads: "A western tourist wearing a Kefiyeh (traditional Arab scarf) takes photographs at the Church of the Nativity, traditionally believed to be the birthplace of Jesus Christ, in the West Bank town of Bethlehem, 18 December 2007."

I believe those are now called "Native Central American textiles"

I bet the Orthodox priests just thought he was a hairy woman. (In the Orthodox church women usually cover their heads)

"Mexican Blankets - $5" is straight off the signs at the tourist shops on I-10 and I-40.

Burn their shops down if you have a problem with it.

John McCain's daughter wearing the same scarf on the "Straight Talk Express" the other day.



Why do I think the same people throwing a fit will giver her a pass?
