STARBUCKS DENIES COFFEE TO MARINES
Recently Marines in Iraq wrote to Starbucks 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
of
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, maybe 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. I know
you'll all be there again when I deploy once more.
"Semper Fidelis."
