Hey, the homeless who bathe in the sinks inside the bathrooms at Starbucks celebrate Christmas too.

Looks like Starbucks listened to the majority and introduced very Christmas cups this year
I don't know how "Christmas" it can ever be with the Starbucks logo on it.

hahaha, thanks. I never knew about their logo. I don't like Starbucks--their coffee tastes burnt so I don't drink it. Around here we have Dunkin' Donuts coffee instead, along with local brands. Oh well, nice to know where their logo came from. Still not sure if they had a war on Christmas--and who cares? No one can kill Christmas.

Hey righties, there's no war on Christmas. Your handlers and masters are just telling you that to get you riled up.

Good one! I was reading a book that was written about the town I grew up in and there was a photo of a Christmas parade taken in 1958. There was a float built by my Catholic school and on the front it said "Merry Xmas and there was no FOX news to howl about it.

To you, they are cups.

To conservatives - they are one more attempt to change the country - by leftists.

I suspect Starbucks lost a lot of respect and customers for their anti-holiday activity over the past few years. Americans need to stick together and punish retailers who try to ruin holidays.


Really?

Then I'm sure you'll have NO problem posting links to actual attempts to "destroy Thanksgiving".

That is of course if there ever really were any.

Next imaginary thought? Better make it a good one.
You may not be against it nor are some others of your political persuasion, but there are a large number of leftists who despise Christians, this country and anything to do with their holidays if God is involved.

Smart move by SB. I know many conservative, Christmas loving Christians who love their SB coffee.

To righties they are a way to shove their phony religion down everyone's throat.

Jesus Christ was about loving one another and giving a helping hand to the sick, the poor, the stranger.

Hard to imagine Christ getting behind stealing kids from their families, refusing to protect children from being shot by gun nuts, ...

Equally hard to imagine Him caring one way or another about what is printed on the side of coffee cups.

How do you boil a frog? This is about much more than a Christmas cup or a war on Christmas.
