Is this political correctness?

I think it's much ado about nothing.

It's a pretty common tactic to avoid doing anything constructive. To pretend to be outraged about some BS topic so you don't have to clean up the big mess of the economy, war, health care etc etc...

The Republicans and my 4 yr old do it all the time.

Except my 4 yr old can't help the economy, she just needs to pick up her toys.

I think it's silly that some people were offended by it, but these days businesses have to yield or it can affect them tremendously from a financial standpoint. We are becoming so overly politically correct that it is becoming incorrect and offensive. People need to lighten up and focus on more important things.

LOL Well It will embolden our enemies as conservatives would say.

That scarf is nothing close to those worn in the middle east.

The Di-Tech commerical is wrong, people aren't smart.

It is perhaps PC.

I actually chose to read Malkins side of the story, and she has some good points.

If it offended a different group of people, then there would be more of an issue.

Yes it is. It's amazing how Republicans complain about PC then they are the first ones to cry about something so trivial. This is just one more example of hypocrisy by the political right.

Yes and it could also be considered idiotic and Fox is crazy for making a stink.

The "model" is Rachel Ray. I hardly think that she is a terrorist so this uproar is based on nonsensical hysteria.

No, it is xenophobia.

You know, one of the planks in the Republican Party?

How effin ridiculous.

IT'S A SCARF.

Talk about Hypocrisy of right wingers.

Funny. Most western fashion trends offend Arabs.
