Breaking News: Starbucks Is A Liberal Corporation

A Christian women's group is upset that most of the quotes on its coffee cups are liberal-pleasing ones, including a pro-gay quote from Armistad Maupin, but come on already.

Starbucks is largely an affectation of liberals. By liberals, of liberals, for liberals. Who the hell else gets all moist at the idea of a European-patterned, mall-ish coffee house?

Liberals are allowed to have their own spaces, their own companies, their own creature comforts, their own nine dollar cups of coffee.

The idea that a national standard of corporate, political, and social ethos be imposed on the country should make conservatives very afraid. Because, by and large, it's liberals who control or at least most strongly influence some of our biggest institutions. Without the right to choose one's own way, conservatives will quickly find they're forced into a way of liberals' choosing.

So let Starbucks be Starbucks. For crying out loud, no self-respecting conservative would be caught dead there anyhow.

Dunkin Donuts coffee kicks ass and is one-third the price.
