Starbucks Appreciation Day
Facebook ^ | August 2, 2012 | Facebook

Posted on 08/02/2012 11:52:08 AM PDT by HIDEK6

EquallyWed.com has proposed a National Starbucks Appreciation Day in direct response to the overwhelming national support at Chick-fil-A on Mike Huckabee’s Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day. Starbucks is on record for supporting marriage equality, and the LGBTQ community and its wonderful allies are ready to let its dollars speak for them on August 7, 2012 at Starbucks everywhere.

My coffee of choice is The Coffee and Tea Company

Did you mean The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf? Wonderful coffee!

Oh,great,so the options for my caffeine fixare Starbucks (gay marriage supporters) or Caribou Coffee (majority owned by the Muslim Brotherhood). I suppose Dunkin’ Donuts is in the tank for Elizabeth Warren then?


Don’t forget Church’s Chicken. They are owned by the same muzzie.

On occasion, I frequent StarBucks.

I hate their coffee. Over-roasted. Clients will ask to meet at Starbucks, and I get a hot Chai Tea latte.

Yesterday ALL retail chains saw the power of real, Conservative Americans and their purchasing power. Let's see what the gay community can muster.

This was a powerful statement that will be discussed in Board Rooms across the world.

And this libtard idea is also doomed to to fail visually. First of all, it’s fake, second it’s too late. Anybody remember the “Coffee Party” that was created to oppose the TEA party?
And last, Chick-Fil-A isn’t exactly everywhere. SO our visuals were great, helicopters could see lines out the door and traffic jams.

Theres a Starbucks on every corner, sometimes 2 or 3 on a corner. Most cities are lucky if they have ONE CFA to patronize. Maybe 2 or 3. On the other hand, if i want to go to the Starbucks protest, there are dozens of locations in every town of size. There protests will barely be noticeable. (except on the news)

Yeah But!! If you don't go to Staryucks you are not one of the Staryuck Elite SNOBS Club (SESC). After all it's not the taste or amount, its the "I CAN AFFORD THIS SHIT and YOU CAN'T" attitude that matters.

We have got to learn our status in life and the SESC's are always ready to tell us. Suks to be them, they have to endure so many offensive tastes to hold their Elitism titles.

I brew my own coffee. Screw Starbucks.

Same here. And also ditched the junky Chinese-produced drip machines with an average six-month operational life.

Went back to the old stainless steel stovetop pot, like grandma always used. Saves $$ and the coffee tastes a lot better.

That does it for me. I will never buy from Starbucks again. I hope this backfires on Starbucks. A lot of those people buying CFA yesterday probably buy coffee from Starbucks. I hope they will do like me and stop giving Starbucks money. BP, Racetrac and QT are all gas stations in Georgia that sell coffee that is just as good if not better and for half the price.

So how are you supposed to know who is straight and who is gay at Starbucks?
Straight guy, "Grande coffee, please."
Gay guy, "I'll have a Grande, hot, decaf, triple five-pump vanilla, non-fat, no foam, whip cream, extra hot, extra carmel, upside down, carmel machiatto, chop chop please sweetie.

Starbucks has to be sweating this. They’re about to lose a lot of business.

This is hilarious, because while Starbucks supports left leaning causes, as a policy it does not object to open carry.

So when the LGBTQ&P(edophiles) are holding their liquid candy-a-thon, showing up with open carry could very well give them the vapors.

Excellent. They will never come close to duplicating what happened yesterday.

CFA Appreciation Day wasn’t about gays (or anti-gays), it was about free speech. People who don’t give a rat’s patootie about gay marriage turned out yesterday because there are big-city mayors threatening CFA’s right to do business, and that is what got things going.

Both sides are showing an ability to learn the wrong lessons.

I am with you on this one. Whataburger has got to be the best burger in the world. Every time my son and I come back from offshore fishing in Destin, our first stop is Whataburger.

I did not know they were based in Corpus Christi, I have only seen them in Florida. Why no stores in Louisiana, Mississippi or Alabama?

Their burgers have to be deadly as they taste so good. I guess it is a blessing that there are none where I live.
