Starbucks Coffee
I just received this email from a friend that got me a little mad. I thought that I would share it with my friends on this forum.

Screw Starbuck
"Recently Marines in Iraq wrote to Starbuck because they wanted to let them know how much they liked their coffees and to request that they send some of it to the troops there.
Starbucks replied, telling the Marines thank you for their support in their business, but that Starbucks does not support the war, nor anyone in it , and that they would not send the troops their brand of coffee.
So as not to offend Starbucks, we should not support them by buying any of their products. As a war vet writing to fellow patriots, I feel we should get this out in the open. I know this war might not be very popular with some folks, but that doesn't mean we don't support the boys on the ground fighting street-to-street and house-to-house for what they and I believe is right.
If you feel the same as I do then pass this
along, or you can discard it and no one will never
know. Thanks very much for your support of me, and I know you'll all be there again when I deploy once more.
Semper Fidelis.
