Welcome back Mr. McCarthy!

So it seems Rachael Ray (she’s the semi-sexy girl-next door cooking show host with a sweet demeanor) is now a terrorist. When you read the article that is linked above, think about what historians refer to as “The McCarthy Era”. It was a time during the cold war when communist was synonymous with “evil”. Don’t get me wrong, I am not a communist, left wing, or a supporter of any kind of jihad. It’s the knee-jerk reaction to things that makes me worry.
Think about that. She wore a scarf. Now, it’s not that she thinks Hugo Chavez is a wonderful fella. Or that she has a picture of Stalin on her desk. Oh no. This is about the things that have come to “represent” things causing some republicans to get antsy. Look people, I’m Republican. Well on paper anyway. But the way our political system is moving I will be eating croissants and cheese in Canada if this nonsense escalates. The sad part is, things always get worse before they get better.
But if I remember correctly, back shortly after 9/11 the government told us to go about our daily business. Continue to live as we have lived. Or else the terrorists have won.
So now some e-tard has posted about Rachael wearing a scarf and we’re all ducking and covering?
Seriously people. Get a feeding tube and move into a home. None of us are the stupid. A piece of clothing does not make a person a supporter of something. Sounds to me like someone is mixing up terrorist combat tactics and gang warfare tactics.
Don’t get me wrong, I get his comments. They are reasonable. Posit the question. Ask “does this mean Rachael will be nuking her audience?!” or “I bet her microwave is a WMD!” Because honestly, do you think she’s a supporter of some splinter cell?
If it raises a flag, call the CIA. Tell them. Let Dunkin Doughnuts and Rachael sort it out THEN. But for the love of all that is holy, shut the hell up.
