WHEN A SCARF = TERROR

by A.man.I

I wouldn’t have believed this if I didn’t read it myself. Looks like a Rachel Ray Dunkin’ Donuts ad has been pulled because she was wearing a black and white scarf.

from the AP

Critics, including conservative commentator Michelle Malkin, complained that the scarf wrapped around her looked like a kaffiyeh, the traditional Arab headdress. Critics who fueled online complaints about the ad in blogs say such scarves have come to symbolize Muslim extremism and terrorism.

I think the scarf probably had more to do with fashion than the “T” word. Give me a break.
