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! 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 our men and women
fighting street-to-street and house-to-house for what they and I believe
in.
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.
