Maybe it is just me but some people in the world are just a little too sensitive. Rachael Ray did a new Dunkin' Donuts commercial in it she wears a scarf that looks kind of like a keffiyeh, a traditional headdress worn by Arab men. Some observers, including ultra-conservative Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin, were so incensed by the ad that there was even talk of a Dunkin' Donuts boycott. "The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad," Malkin said.... WTF
Dunkin' Donuts has abruptly canceled the ad.

in response to the ad being pulled she Malkin said:
"It’s refreshing to see an American company show sensitivity to the concerns of Americans opposed to Islamic jihad and its apologists."
Just..wow!

It's sad but true that there are entirely too many people (of all political stripes) who go out of their way to find things to be offended by.

do you really want her to stumble thru that answer and plumb the depths of her own, thus demonstrating the limitless potential for stupidity available.?

Don't go there
Just think about all the crap publications right there in the check out lines of the grocery store. As a good U.S. American (thank you Miss So. Carolina) I choose amusement over enlightenment any day
