Perhaps with a goal of everyone in the Country becoming gay, they may have over-played their hand a tad.

Who wants to be overrun by cranky, b*tchy gays waiting in line 10 deep for the slow moving barristas at Starbucks? Can you imagine the orders? Half caf, soy milk mochagrande with a double shot of espresso and no whipped cream, two cherries on top and just a pinch of organic nutmeg. No, wait, make that a venti carmellatto cappachino with cocoa. No, wait.....

I think the broad success of Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day will have a long-term affect on businesses. It was far more successful than anyone could imagine, especially within the MSM and gay community. Look how pathetic their “kiss-in” was in comparison. Neither event was organized, though Appreciation Day had the advantage of Huckabee’s recommendation. Yet that can’t account for the wide disparity in numbers between the two events.

Starbucks may also be looking at JC Penney and how their pandering to the gay community has affected them. You don’t turn your back on the vast majority of Americans who believe in traditional marriage. We’re the ones with the economic resources to keep these businesses alive. If a business targets a small, relatively unwelcome portion of the community, that’s ultimately who they can expect in their shops.

Every fag in America is already prancing around with a bladder full of that overpriced crap, don’t see where their big day will even be noticed by non-sodomites.

The point being missed, as I see it, is that Chick-Fil-A’ “appreciation day” was appreciating them, or more specifically, Dan Cathy’s right to voice his beliefs and opinions in a free society. Also, the appreciative throngs of CFA supporters were there to demonstrate their disdain against those who were trying to deny Mr. Cathy that right.

Moreover, the planned Starbucks event is a manifestation of the hate and vitriol coming from the left and the gay community. They’re not fighting for a “right” to their beliefs, in a free society they have that already; moreover, they’re fighting because we don’t agree with their lifestyle and choose not to either condone, or support it.

If one reads between the lines here, I think it will become clear that not only does Starbucks not want a high concentration of gay rights supporters in its stores today, with the ensuing news coverage, but that they actually recommend that money might be well spent elsewhere today.

Starbucks doesn't want the gay community doing for them what they did for J.C. Penney.

Perhaps the gays over-reached with this whole public corporations taking sides affair.

From Rudyard Kipling:

It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.

They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.

Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.

Remember when Starbucks refused to follow in the footsteps of other chains and did not ban conceal/open carry?

Yeah, go ahead and appreciate Starbucks. Liberals have such short memories.

I have frequented Starbucks periodically, but since the homosexual recruiters have chosen to elevate it for its donations to organizations that support immorality, its off my list.

For Starbucks Appreciation Day, I’m going to get my coffee at McDonald’s for a buck, and leave the server a three dollar tip.

Why Starbucks Appreciation Day? Because Starbucks in many locations has a line. So that gays and their supporters can snap pictures of that everyday line and call it a victory.

Tell me when that line goes out the building, around the complex, and out into the street. Tell me when people in cars are waiting a half hour, JUST to get into the line to order.

CFA appreciation day really shook them, and they have absolutely no idea what to do now. No, you fools, what should have really shook you was California passing a constitutional amendment stating that marriage was the union of one man and one woman. I don’t care if you shack up, but re-writing the dictionary does not make you married.

Uh oh, I just went to Starbucks this morning, I had no idea. Well, at least it wasn’t very crowded.

This is like saying:

“Turn on your headlights at night to show support for XYZ”

It is a fake success set up to cover a fake marriage.

This is so the MSM can use all the stories and anecdotes they prepared.

Not to worry Starbucks, I'm not gey and there isn't a hope in hell I will patronize a local establishment of yours and drink your overpriced swill. I don't care how comfy the lounge chairs are.I will express my appreciation to Mr. C4E for his thoughtfulness in prepping our morning brew which I am enjoying at this moment. My morning bagel is better too.

Starbucks Appreciation Day?

Makes sense if you consider there are no K-Y Jelly stores.

I’ve decided to have lunch again at Chick-Fif-A today. That is still the barometer on this issue, as I see it.

Their chopped chicken sandwich looks interesting. I’ve never tried one.

The thing the gay groups do not understand is this whole CFLA thing was not about gay marriage. It was about Gov’t trying to discriminate against a company because of the owners views.

America basically told those mayors to GFT! What’s the Gay population 2-3% max? As long as it only affects the gay community, America could care less! However, the gay community better not try to infringe or derogate the rights of all to satisfy their bitchy, selfish, perverted lifestyle!
