    How ridiculous have we become?! Rachael Ray and Dunkin' Donuts are Terrorist extremists just like Mickey Mouse is. People, it is a scarf. The woman uses words like yummy in my tumm on her shows. Dunkin' Donuts has been around probably longer than that idiot Pam Geller.

    Miss or Mrs. Geller (whichever she is, probably the former, who would want her) obviously has too much time on her hands if this is the only thing she has time for. She needs to get a job and be a PRODUCTIVE part of society. He here is an idea, if she is so hot to protecrt us all, why doesn't she join the military and protect us as I did for 22 years.

    I served in the US Navy for 22 yrs and made multiple deployments to defend our country. Unfortunately in some cases, (such as this one) I was defending IDIOTS like Pam Geller's right to accuse descent people like Rachael Ray, Dunkin Donuts and anyone wwith the fashion sense that wears a scarf. Talk about blatant racism! It is a scarf that looks like something a Terrorist wears, of course she and they MUST be supporting terrorist!

    In fact Ms or Mrs. Greer, it is you who is promoting and supporting terrorism. You are the one perpetuatibng hatered and distrust of all Muslim and Arabic people with thinkig (if that is what you want to call what she does) like yours. You are a digrace to our country and you make me sick that I had to defend the rights of you and other ignorant thinkers like you!

    Wake up and smell the coffee. Our freedoms are going down the drain and fast. With pollitical correctedness and idiots let loose on our streets and the internet it wont be long before the there are laws against speech that is PERCIEVED to be offensive. And WHY WHY WHY is this idiot bloggers NAME even mentioned in the article? Why give a bigger voice to an IDIOT? And shame on DunkinDonuts for giving in to the buffoons.

    This has got to be one of the DUMBest things I have ever, in my entire life, read about. Coffee people it is just coffee. Get real and start worrying about things that really matter. I find children starving in our own country far more disturbing than someone wearing a paisley scarf in an ad. People GET REAL. We , as a society, need to worry about our own problems and leave the world alone. Scarf plllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllttttt !!!

    DD SHOULD NOT CAVE IN THEY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG OR OFFENSIVE WEARING A SCARF NOT YASSER ARAFAT'S KAFFEYA AROUND THE NECK ISTEAD I SUGGEST THEY REPLACE THE AD WITH ANOTHER ONE FOR RR WEARING THE AMERICAN FLAG LIKE THE MOSLEM WOMEN HEAD SCARF. IN ADDITION I THINK IF WOMEN WEAR IT ONE AND DONATE THE COST OF THE HAIR STYLIST THAT DAY TO THEIR FAVORITE CHARITY.

  • Posted By: SABRYCPA @ 05/31/2008 12:05:14 PM

    DUNKEN DONUT CAVE IN IS A SHAME FOR A BUSINESS GIVING IN TO UNFAIR UNJUST COMMENTS THAT DEVIDES THE NATION AS WELL AS UN INFORMATIVE. FIRST THE NECK SCARF IS NOT A MUSLIM REQUIREMENT, SECOND THE DESIGN & COLORS WERE NEVER A YASSER ARAFAT'S COLORS.
    I SUGGEST FOR RACHAEL RAY TO SUBSTITUTE THE PICTURE WITH ANOTHER PICTURE WEARING THE AMERICAN FLAG AS A HEAD COVER INSTEAD OF GOING TO THE HAIR STYLIST. AN SUGGEST IT TO THE AMERICAN WOMEN TO WEAR IT ONCE A WEEK OR A MONTH INSTEAD OF GOING TO THE HAIR STYLIST OR SPEND HALF AN HOUR IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR. MAY BE THE SAVING SHOULD GO TO THEIR FAVORITE CHARITY.

    I agree. The real danger is that buffoons in the media keep hiring 'known haters' of America and allow them an unchallenged voice. The fact is.... the author of this very article is an Islamic apologist. A little disclosure is always nice.

    It's incredible to me the impact that a few bloggers have. The true problem here is you have people jumping to conclusions who know nothing about fashion and probably dress as hideously as the Jihadists. To claim that because the scart Rachael Ray is wearing slightly resembles an Arab Headdress links her to Muslim radicals is ludacris. And furthermore, who cares if it did? That doesn't mean she's a Jihadist. Do we deem all people in American who are Arabic and wear a headdress to be Jihadist? No.

    Frankly, I could care less about the actual issue. It's ashame news is made about this sort of thing. Just wanted to tell Lorraine Ali, I really enjoy your style of writing. Very entertaining.

  • Posted By: Texican American @ 05/31/2008 11:13:00 AM

    Leave it to Newsweek to hire jihadists...Google the author....I did....look what I found...."Lorraine Ali, the Worst Political Reporter in America?" by Daniel Pipes (September 29, 2004) - article criticizing her alleged consistent pro-Islamist stance.

    The level of stupidity grows every day more, leave people alone, isn't this supposed to be the land of the free?

  • Posted By: mediclawler @ 05/31/2008 11:10:30 AM

    ARE YOU KIDDING ME? ! It's a scarf! I might meet you half way if she used it to cover her head and/or face with it. I guess her Food Network special on cuisine of the middle east will now be under scrutiny....

    NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE EXTREMISTS! AND NOT ALL MUSLIMS OR PEOPLE WHO WEAR THESE SCARVES ARE EXTREMISTS! LIKE RACHEL RAY. BE OPENED MINDED PEOPLE, AND DIVERSE. STOP LETTING OTHERS RUN YOUR THOUGHTS. THINK FOR YOURSELVES!

    Ridiculous! The reaction to the scarf just gives STRENGTH to the jihadist symbolism. Actually, why wouldn't Geller and her fellow fear-minded thinkers see it as a statement of discrediting the jihadist symbolism, such as: Here's what we think of your ideaological symbol - it's representing unhealthy grease and sugar in our country!

    You have got to be kidding. It's amazing to me how the media can so obviously contradict themselves. We gripe about how our freedoms are being taken away, and yet what you don't realize, is that when you create controversy out of thin air over something so stupid as a scarf, it once again deteriorates the freedoms that you exact same people demand. Hello!!!! Pam Gellar wake up. "Political correctness "has now gone so far to the extreme, that people can express themselves at all anymore without inadvertantly offending someone. My advice; GET OVER IT!!!!!

    The American propensity for political correctness can make mistakes - this is one of them.
    But, who can blame us - 3,000 + merciless deaths on 9/11 have begun a remarkable acceptance
    that there are a group of people out there , The Radical Jihadists, who have no qualms about
    slaughtering the innocent just because they don't agree with their beliefs - all in the name of
    God??????? Yes, we are coming to the point where we realize that moral consciousness is
    not a given to all peoples, some are viscious murderers - and that is what they want to be.
