Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz calls out Giuliani for 'offensive' Obama comments
CNN Money ^

The Starbucks (SBUX) CEO called out former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani for questioning President Obama's "love" for his country.

"As an American, I find Rudy Giuliani's vicious comments about President Obama 'not loving America' to be profoundly offensive to both the President and the Office," Schultz said in a statement.

Giuliani caused a political stir this week with his remarks about Obama at a dinner event featuring Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, in a speech first reported by Politico. He said he didn't believe Obama "loves America."

This pervert, who uses the goddess Ashera as his company symbol lost my business a long time ago. He gives the finger to God, to morality and to patriots.

And he makes shitty coffee. Mine is far better.

The truth sounds like hate speech to those who hate the truth.


Exactly. You can tell when you’ve told a fundamental truth about a leftist when they get all upset.

I can’t boycott Starbucks. The overpriced mud they call coffee and want me to order with fake words is not something I even consider purchasing anymore.

Interesting....he finds the comments offensive, but not inaccurate.

I never touch Star*ux psuedocoffee anyways, so they won’t lose a customer, but this does reinforce my decision.

So Howard (Who?) Schulz crawled out from under the Oval Office desk, wiped his chin and had something to say? So?

If you price something high enough, and give it a pretentious name, you can get some people to eat anything. Nobody would eat snails at .50¢ a pound, but call it escargot and charge $25 for five or six of them, and they’ll beat down your door to get to them.

Starbucks coffee tastes like burnt bottom-of-the-pot rehydrated sludge. They can’t compete with Sheetz coffee here in our area.

Sounds like the apparatchiks getting indignant that the supreme leader has been disrespected.

Here’s another challenge-

Let’s say he’s not a pro-Muslim, pro-Islamic caliphate kinda guy.

What would he be doing differently if he were?
