Rachel Ray annoys me. Her “simple”, so-called 20 minute recipes and happy happy cooking piss off my struggling to put a Latino meal on the table while blogging and chasing two kids. But I wouldn’t call Rachel Ray a terrorist or that she supports terrorists because she’s wearing an “Arab looking” scarf while selling Dunkin Donuts iced coffee drinks. But conservatives, among them Michelle “I suffer from self-hate ” Malkin, think that the scarf Ms. Ray wore during a DD’s ad:
looked too much like a keffiyeh, what Malkin describes as “the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad.
. And Dunkin Donuts said: ok we’ll pull the ad. Stupid move Dunkin Donuts.

Ever since VL started way back when, Jennifer and I have been complaining about Cinco de Mayo being misunderstood and misused as an excuse for half price margaritas.
But this year seems to be especially special because my inbox has been flooded with Cinco de Mayo marketing tie-ins way beyond your normal Mexican hat dance drinking games.
