: In the archives (Word Camel et al.) a link is made between riffs and riffraff. Maureen Dowd makes a link between rifts and riffraff: 'The president [Dubya] got re-elected by dividing the country along fault lines of fear, intolerance, ignorance and religious rule. He doesn't want to heal rifts; he wants to bring any riffraff who disagree to heal.'

Please change 'heal' to 'heel.'
