lol.

That's a slap down?

Hardly. The only people who could possibly care are........... nobody.

Considering the source, this is way beyond hilarious!

*LMAO* Still can't engage with the actual topic of the thread, eh. Oh well, go on with your little emotional outbursts if it makes you feel better.

Emotional outbursts, like government handouts, are for liberals. I'm simply stating a fact, one which I believe will be proven over time by the number of responses to this thread.

And that's why you post on the thread. Uh huh.

It obviously bothers you and others on this thread when a successful company makes a point of supporting equality rather than bigotry. Why can't you just admit it or at least make a case for why Strobhar's critique was correct?

Capitalism and liberally social politics go together oh so nicely, don't they.

I don't have to boycott Starbucks. I never go there anyway!
and, I don't own any of there stock.
So, obviously, I don't care what they do or how much money they make or who they employ.

However, I have decided that I am in favor of homosexual marriage. Why, you may ask?
Well, for one thing, "marriage" is just a word, as is "civil union" and "common law marriage". It is pretty much meaningless in the world of today.
Secondly, I think it is great that homosexuals will now have to get a DIVORCE! Yep, no more just going their separate ways, they have to get attorneys, argue about property settlements, discuss alimony and child support, pay the fees, all the stuff heteros have been doing for years! I think it is ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS!
In fact, I heard that a homosexual couple in California who had been together for 30 years, and was one of the first such couples to get married there, was filing for divorce within a year! I guess they couldn't take the total commitment that came with marriage! Again, HILARIOUS!

All evidence that you have provided to the contrary.

You are stating a knee-jerk reaction, one rooted in the biases of your political ideology.

Yeah almost as horrible as working on some slave labor assembly line in China making iPads, funny how you cherry picked a few situations you seem to agree with which again proves my point.

Liberals, where illogical and irresponsible meets and breeds.

funny that most people who accept Federal Dollars (handouts) are poor conservatives. OR did you you think that most of people who live in the South and Southwest are liberal democrats.

And of course your post has nothing to do with the thread.

The thread is about a company president telling a stock holder to **** off ,and that he is free to sell his shares if he doesn't like the company's policy about treating everyone equally.

I don't know about you, but treating EVERYONE equally, no matter if they are gay, straight, Transgendered, black, white, asian, male or female, seems to be the common sense thing to do.

What do your bogus stats on Federal dollars have to do with this thread?

My point, which has been made a few times already, is that liberals will openly attack the ultra rich corporations and their owners unless of course they say or do something that's seen to be slightly liberal and then it's a love fest.

Make no mistake, I'm 100% behind treating all people fairly and I'm also 100% behind what this man said/how he treated this stock holder. I just found it funny that a liberal would openly praise a millionaire CEO when any other day of the week that same man would be attacked by liberals for being a 1%er who takes advantage of other people to create his own great wealth.
