Urban Outfitters is evil. Howver the rot among our elite is just sad. It used to be that they were overtly patriotic. Now even so-called conservatives like Meghan McCain will wear a keffiyeh.

Rachel was just wearing an ugly scarf. Malkin needs to get a some glasses, her eyes are screwed up.

We could fix all of this if government was truly of, for and by the people, but it isn’t, unless, of course, you are a Judge.

I agree on their coffee. I used to commute weekly between Vermont and NYC, and I always got a cup of coffee at the Dunkin Donuts in Fort Edward before the long, late night drive home, to help me stay awake. Their coffee was reliably superb.

For the clueless...someone will shortly post a picture. IT'S JUST A SCARF!!!!. As conservatives, why do we pick such lame battles that make us look ultra-PC and totally stupid??? IT'S JUST A SCARF. ~sigh.

First Rush now Malkin. Can we retire the shark tank for a while? I don’t want Hannity tempted to strap on skis for an attempted jump.

It seems like an ugly checkered-motif scarf to me. Even if it's keffiyeh, which I don't think it is, so what? Are we becoming so insecure now that we don't want people to wear anything that the Arabs, the Chinese, or the Venezuelan wear?

I looked the name up on wiki--found this..." For example, the slang "keffiyeh kinderlach" refers to young left-wing Jews, particularly college students, who sport a keffiyeh around the neck as a political/fashion statement. "

Thought that pithy. Maybe that's what we should be calling the Soros types--Keffiyeh Kinderlachen.

I happened to see the same scarf in the Urban Outfitters store down the street just yesterday, it is, in fact, just__an__ugly__scarf.

I have a new view on this. Ray was not wearing a keffiyeh, she was wearing a Tallit (Jewish prayer scarf). Why not? There is absolutely no evidence it is a keffiyeh and only vaguely resembles one yet everyone assumes it is a keffiyeh. I am making just as much of a guess that it is a Tallit. It makes more sense. She is Jewish, it has patterns you'll never see on a keffiyeh, and it has tassles that are rarely seen on a keffiyeh but are always on a Tallit.

My evidence it is a Tallit? I have just as much as those who claim it is a keffiyeh- none.

[CatherinePPP]

Hmm. I agree with most people here, it just looks like an ugly scarf to me. But then, I am not very knowledgeable about Arab symbols. Is there a reason to suspect Rachel Ray might be sending out secret signals to people? I mean, does she have a history of left-wing or pro-Muslim antics? I don’t know, I usually like Michelle Malkin and I don’t feel like she would lead a witch hunt against someone for no reason. I tried looking Rachel Ray up on google but didn’t find anything about Palestinians or anything like that.

[BGHater]

Maybe she needs to go after our shooters who wear shemagh's as well.

If anyone is interested in palestinian solidarity scarf thread 2. As I noted before, I doubt Rachel Ray knew what she was wearing, which imo was the popular, in some circles, solidarity/anti war scarf. This is why they sell the things. I'm sure the ad agency knew, at least the individual setting the shot, and it was smart of DD to pull the ad. A couple of my comments from the other thread in post 36

Rachel Ray is not wearing a keffiyah, just an ulgy scarf. It does have some paisley-type motif on part of it which gives it away as a non-keffiyah scarf.

[Cinnamon Girl]

Based on this picture, this chick is clearly a complete idiot. Who doesn't know that the kaffiah is the filthy garment of the extreme ignorant college Che t-shirt wearing pro-so-called palestinian crowd???? Why doesn't Dunkin Donut just put a picture of Arafat in their ads and be done with it?

I guess all the execs at Dunkin Donuts are as ignorant as this crazy chick.

[joe.fralick]

I saw her in person once. Her personality is slightly annoying, but she’s seriously cute. I’m very superficial and cute usually does it for me.

[TigersEye]

It doesn’t look like a keffiyeh.
