That is not an original quote. Keith Olbermann gets props for that one. He used it while giving Dunkin' Donuts his "Worst Person(s) in the World" dis-honor for folding behind threats of a boycott from the nuts from the radical right, namely Michelle "The World's Darkest White Supremacist" Malkin. All television cook Rachael Ray had to do is appear in an ad (pictured) for Dunkin' Donuts wearing a kaffiyeh, and that was enough for the World's Darkest White Supremacist to go on the rampage. See, in Malkin's little - very little - world, a kaffiyeh is "the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad." Well, because Dunkin' Donuts didn't feel they could take the screeches of Malkin, they kissed her behind instead. Frankly, it might be time to give them ours to kiss. Read on.

“You do realize they are making this up about Iran?”

I like Olberman, he's got guts.
I like Rachael Ray too, who is about as uncontroversial as anyone on American tv! I woulda thought! Prior to this the only people hating on her were food snobs. We should have known there was something wrong with someone demonstrating how to cook cheap fast meals.

Oh please, not another Hitler-based fashion boycott. Already ruined a perfectly good mustache.

I was just in New York City recently, and kaffiyehs were everywhere. They're a fashion craze - not just for Maoists anymore!

Actually, the craze is over but as with everything the plebs are catching up now.
