Dunkin' Donuts Ad Pulled Due To "Terrorist" Undertones
In the form of Rachael Ray's Scarf
 

rachaelraydunkin.jpgIt’s not that Dunkin’ Donuts actually thinks living endorsement Rachael Ray is supporting terrorism by wearing this black-and-white scarf in one of its ads. But the attacks from the right-y blogs, including Michelle Malkin’s, has the company deciding that it’s easier to pull the ad all together than defend itself against criticism that Ray is actually wearing a keffiyeh, or, as Malkin describes it, “the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad.”

It doesn't help that Racheal Ray is on the dark side of the white peop.le color spectrum either.

Michelle Malkin (despite being cute) is an idiot. At first I thought she was just acting but I'm starting to believe she is right up there, on the crazy meter, with Ann Coulter.

Chic Noir,

"Ray is partially of Sicilian ancestry; her maternal grandparents were Sicilian. Her relatives on her father's side are Cajun from Louisiana." - Wikipedia

If she's Cajun there's a good chance there is some Black in the mix.

That controversy has only proved my belief that USA is a country born on racism and this country highly favors white Judeo-Christian people over anybody who is not white, Christian/Jewish, or Western.

On board with Bored Kidz. Now I sort of wish she WAS actually wearing a keffiyeh.

It's interesting that skinheads can put up posters in Philly provoking whites to do something about "dangerous minorities" (read: Blacks) and Philly can do nothing about it. Free speech. But start some stuff that might possibly almost kinda get on some Jewish people's nerves and a company will pull an ad they spent millions on.

Michelle Malkin is a slag. Pure and simple.

Cajuns do not have any black ancestry. Creoles do. My point is moot though b/c Sicilians have black blood. Shhhh! They HATE to be told that and will kill you for saying so.
