This is just stupid. Rachael Ray's ad dumped because of scarf A Dunkin' Donuts commercial featuring TV chef Rachael Ray has been ditched after critics accused her of dressing like a terrorist in the ad. (Click here to view photo.) Ray, who was announced as the company's new spokeswoman last year, appears in the commercial wearing a black-and-white scarf, alleged to be symbolic of a keffiyeh, a traditional headdress worn by Arab men. Fox news columnist Michelle Malkin explains the garment " ...has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad. Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos. "The apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant and not-so-ignorant fashion designers, celebrities, and left-wing icons." Dunkin' Donuts bosses first dismissed complaints, claiming Ray's black-and-white wrap was merely misinterpreted, but an ensuing firestorm forced them to quickly pull the ad from rotation. A statement from company executives reads, "In a recent online ad, Rachael Ray is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design. It was selected by her stylist for the advertising shoot. "Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we are no longer using the commercial." http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate/detail?blogid=7&entry_id=26848 | ||

It's her stylist, not her. I just got done reading the article. | |||

More likely she is wearing the scarf because it compliments her outfit. "They love our milk and honey but they preach about some other way of living When you’re running down my country, Hoss you’re walking on the fighting side of me" - - Merle Haggard | |||

This is rather ridiculous. I would have never thought her scarf represented anything other than some fashion accessory. Plus, She is hot. | |||

I'm truly suprised that Bill O'Liely wasn't on this before the Malkin shill. He must be slipping. Made the "Worst Person" too. World's Worst Maybe Rachel should invite Malkin on her show, bake a pie, and then smash her in the face with it. | |||

I guess all those US Special Forces soldiers and SEALs that wear shemaghs while in country must also be terrorists, right? According the Malkin, these soldiers must be "ignorant" or "left-wing icons". Here are some pics of US troops wearing shemaghs/keffiyehs. We've all seen plenty of them. | ||||

Rachel Ray is hot. Rachel Ray can cook good American food. A terrorist she is not. Please marry me Rachel Ray. I have a great job. I mean, I mod at military.com. What more could a woman want???? You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go and get and beat you with 'til you understand what's going on around here. | |||

Not to mention, of course, that the checkered scarf was a symbol of Yassar Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization, a genuine terrorist group, from which sprang Fatah, who are now our "buddies" in Palestine. If Rachel is supporting terrorism by wearing that scarf, what is the administration doing by supporting Fatah? | |||

Not only that, but Rachels first full-time boyfriend was 30 years older than her....so...there's hope for us old guys! Whoo Hoo! | |||

Wow, and she can cook too! She can wear anything she wants, or not! | |||

I was about to point out that shemaghs have been beloved of British soldiers in sandy areas since long before the PLO was a gleam in Nasty Marrafat's piggy little eyes, so much so that they're practically issue in Iraq and Afghanistan, but you sort of beat me to it. Is the fragrant Ms Malkin going to accuse the likes of General Sir Peter de la Billiere or Cornet Harry Wales of being lefties? By the way, that patrol in your second last pic - what a bunch of posers | ||||

She has a world class a.s.s but she needs a boob job. | |||
|
Stillkit |
Why? Boobs are just an accesory, sort of like vegetables with a good steak. If Rachel belongs to the IBTC (Itty-Bitty Titi Committee), what's the harm in that? | |||

She's still HOT...wait that picture looks photoshopped, her butt aint that big. What's going on here? Someone photochop her some boobs! | |||
|
Stillkit |
Of course her butt's that big. Don't you ever watch 30 Minute Meals and see her waddling around the kitchen in tight jeans? | |||
|
Bit like the Bravo Two Zero patrol photo then, doesn't detract from the essential poser-iness of the photo. (By the way I'm not saying I dislike the photo or the subject, just that it made me grin.) | ||||

Oh my gosh they are right. Just look at these photos. in four out of five she has some kind of poka dot thing going on. Funny though, I never see her making anything with hummus. Man she is delisho. I'd like to rub her down with some EVO.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Opfor6, | |||

WOW, you watch Keith Olbermann? Did you know you could get more accurate info just by making it up yourself? | |||

jdk, has lost his mind if he thinks olberdork is someone with an once of lucidity. He mentioned malkin that means he watched last night when olberdooosh was calling her a fascist. The olberdork is unhinged. He is great for a laugh though. What did the Olberdoosh say last night. Foxnews is worse than AQ. The Republican party is the leading terrorist group in this country right now. Michelle and the “lunatic fringe” are “fascists” and “the people in this country who most closely share the mentality of the terrorists.” Now who is the worse person? | |||
