It all started with Rachael Ray. In case you don't know of her, she is a TV host for a cooking show or two. They say that Republicans and Democrats who don't even like to cook enjoy watching her in the kitchen. She is shown here in a photo in front of the oven and it looks hot. She shows great balance to be able to cook in those heels.
We all thought that Rachael Ray was an all-American woman. After all she was born in Glen Falls NY and her first job was working the candy counter in Macy's in NY City. But then she appeared in an ad for Dunkin' Donuts wearing a scarf that some thought resembled a keffiyeh, the headdress of Arab men. Yassar Arafat wore one. She is in the pic with the cherry blossoms blooming behind her).
The right wing blogesphere went viral. Dunkin donuts was accused of supporting terrorism. Michelle Malkin (shown in picture with donuts), a fan of the company for its tough stand on immigration, couldn't overlook this affront on her values. She and thousands of others like her took to the phones. They complained to Dunkin Donuts and threatened a boycott. Dunkin Donuts took notice and pulled the ad. America is safe once again.
Or are we? Someone noticed that John McCain's daughter, Meghan, was wearing a keffiyeh (shown with sunglasses resting on top of her head). And even Barbara Bush was noticed supporting the Palestinian cause! Put a flag pin on that woman!
Isn't it odd that Republicans would threaten to boycott Dunkin Donuts over a scarf picked out innocently by Rachael Ray's publicist for an ad but they think it's ok to push donkin donuts - aka "crack for kids" that is pure sugar and grease? Celebrity chef and author Anthony Bourdain believes it is.
Do you still have that photo of yourself - "Republican's worst nightmare", Kayakbiker?!

I will never eat Dunkin Donuts again. Just like I've stopped buying Dell computers and BMW automobiles.
Even Dunkin's tough stance on immigration probably turns soft when it comes to Cubans, Koreans, and other Republican-leaning fascist nationalities.
Michelle Malkin needs to burn in hell, alongside Faggot Coulter.

Michelle Malkin is just jealous of Rachael Ray in her stylish keffiyeh scarf. The only thing that would improve Malkin's looks is a burka.
