Dunkin' Donuts yanks Rachael Ray ad
I thought maybe they yanked the ad for something reasonable, like the fact that Rachel Ray is insufferably annoying. Sadly, this is not the case.

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 yowls in her syndicated column.
What. The. Fuck?
If there was ever a doubt that the far right has gone completely nuts, this should put that to rest.
