It's things like this that make me want to shout "Get a freaking (edited version) grip and RELAX!!!"
http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/po ... thize.htmlI would guess that 99% of people who would have seen that ad would have had no idea what a keffiyeh was. And the last time I checked, Islamic terrorists wore T-shirts too. Does that mean people should stop wearing T-shirts in commercials? What about men with beards? Should there never be a Muslim in a commercial ever again? People need to relax. Islamic fundamentalism won't gain a victory because Rachel Ray wears a scarf that resembles, but IS NOT a keffiyeh, in a Dunkin' Donuts commercial.
Am I wrong? What do other people think?

It's not you, it's the new America. Remember, over one million AMERICANS are on the the Dept. of Homeland Security's "TERRORIST" database. I don't know what the scarf has to do with anything, but Malkin is a confirmed Neocon. If you believe in that.
Does anybody even believe that Terrorists are real anymore? I'm not even talking about the Tower conspiracy. I'm speaking about how Iran is sueing the U.S for funding Al-Qaeda in Iraq. And about How FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security have yet to PUBLICALY TRY AND CONVICT any "TERRORIST," yet still have a HUGE budget.
I agree with you about the ?????WTF????? part, for sure.

Terrorists exist, yes. To the degree the US government would have us believe? No. I'm going to sit by (with the rest of the conspiracy whack-jobs) and watch the US government scare the hell out of the population until ALL their liberties have been surrendered. Then when I see one of you "patriots" at a Fema camp, I'm going to smile and say, "See, us whack-jobs were right all along. We tried to warn you but NOOOOOOOO, you had already drunk too much Kool-aid."

AHAHAHAAA more like drank too much CNN and Toby Keith. But I really hate being labeled a kook.
Take the red pill, Neo.

Yeah. He's the patriotic one. He Wrote a song about how he 'stands by your right to speak freely'...
After he helped get the Dixie Chicks banned from country radio for not supporting our president. I'm pretty sure he is a douche.

Never much for the Dixie Chicks in the first place. Besides, there are more Patriotic Country Music Singers then just Toby Keith. I garuntee you that. And didn't that event happen several years ago anyways?

He is still number one with the religious right, and so is Bush. And those other singers didn't do an amazingly hypocritical thing and base a whole concert tour on it. His fans at it up. And he is STILL saying that the Dixies aren't real Americans.

If he was, then I don't think he would be doing such songs as "She's a Hottie" and the likes.

That's ok, I think....
This guy ain't saying that Mr. Keith can't write a song. I'm saying that he is a douchebag. And that he is a good example of what I hate about this country.
