Starbucks has joined the fight for gay marriage, as Washington state edges closer to becoming the seventh state to approve marriage equality.

Executive vice president of Partner Resources at Starbucks sent an email to business partners yesterday afternoon with the subject, "RE: A Message From Kalen Holmes: Starbucks Supports Marriage Equality."

“Like a straight guy can say, ‘I’ll have a tall half-skinny half-1 percent extra hot split quad shot (two shots decaf, two shots regular) latte with whip, please.”

Thank you! Also, I don’t want to bother with a coffee shop that’s too pretentious to sell a large coffee, and has to call it “grande” instead. Give me a break.

And you Starbucks “baristas”? Don’t get swelled heads. You’re soda jerks, that’s all.

Extra large coffee at McDonalds cost a buck. And tastes just fine.

Peet’s is better, anyway. Just not as convenient, as there aren’t Peet’s on every corner.

Either the CEOs are gay and/or they hate the institution of marriage. The old Soviet Union's attempts to eliminate marriage in the late 1930s and early 1940s included similar steps.

The economy is not recovering, we have ten per cent unemployement, we have gangs and Mexican drug lords inflitrating the DOJ but what is really, really important is to socially engineer marriage and family around gay sex and lifestyle. That is all that really matters, America!

“What’s up with companies endorsing ANYTHING?

Just sell your product and STFU.”

That makes way too much sense in the world we live in today.
