Starbucks Moonbattery: The Way CWA Sees It
Starbucks' habit of serving up moonbattery along with its overpriced coffee is getting on some nerves at Concerned Women for America.
"The Way I See It" quotations printed on the side of Starbucks coffee cups aren't always left-wing — but they tend to be, which is hardly surprising considering the company's 100% Buy Blue rating. A few samples:
The Way I See It # 347 — "Why in moments of crisis do we ask God for strength and help? As cognitive beings, why would we ask something that may well be a figment of our imaginations for guidance? Why not search inside ourselves for the power to overcome? After all, we are strong enough to cause most of the catastrophes we need to endure." — Bill Schell, Starbucks customer from London, Ontario, Canada
The Way I See It # 230 — "Heaven is totally overrated. It seems boring. Clouds, listening to people play the harp. It should be somewhere you can't wait to go, like a luxury hotel. Maybe blue skies and soft music were enough to keep people in line in the 17th century, but Heaven has to step it up a bit. They're basically getting by because they only have to be better than Hell" — Joel Stein, columnist for the Los Angeles Times
The Way I See It # 43 — "My only regret about being gay is that I repressed it for so long. I surrendered my youth to the people I feared when I could have been out there loving someone. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too d*mn short." — Armistead Maupin, Homosexual Novelist
CWA's Matt Barber suggests visiting Starbucks' website and submitting your own quotations for consideration. Here's his contribution:
The Way I See It # ?? — "Why do so many in our fallen world revile God's natural order when it comes to marriage, family and human sexuality? Why do we encourage wicked pride in a morally bankrupt, high-risk lifestyle that's anything but "gay"? Why do we shake our fist with hate at perfect Love? Life is short —but it's never too late for change." — Matt Barber, Policy Director for Cultural Issues, Concerned Women for America
Try not to drop dead of a heart attack if you actually see this printed on the side of your grande Ethiopian Frappuccino tutti-frutti mocha decaf supreme.
The Kid From Brooklyn says hi to Starbucks.
