"I knew Starbucks had to be a liberal creation. Created by liberals for liberals,"
You know, I'm not too sure about this. We live in a very small coastal area of northern California ( about 6,000 in immediate area), and just got a Starbucks this year. After an initial "Wow" factor things settled down and got back to normal. We have quite a few mom and pop coffee places, but so far everyone seems to be doing just fine. On top of that I worked at our local Republican headquarters this past election and Starbucks contributed coffee and also let us use their store for a local function.
There will always be local exceptions, but when the national company gives 100% of their donations to the Dems, it's pretty clear.
