In case you haven’t heard, Starbucks unintentionally sparked a religious war last week when it unveiled its new red cups, which some Christian extremists have interpreted as an attack on Christmas.
The latest person to enter the Starbucks-versus-Christmas debate is none other than Sarah Palin, who accused “some grinches on the Left” of whipping up a “non-controversy” to make Christians “look ridiculous.”
The only problem? The man who started this “non-controversy” was actually a self-proclaimed right-wing “Social Media Evangelist” named Josh Feuerstein, who went on CNN this week to accuse Starbucks of “trying to remove Christmas from Christmas!”
How about we take this to the next level?

Meanwhile Christmas is full of pagan themes and imagery that no one notices. Stay classy, America.

Trump popped off about boycotting this business because they nixed reindeer. I don’t think he really wants to be President and is doing this stuff to lose on purpose.

@1EqualityUSA: Of course. He’s been trolling the republican party for months. He shows up to debates and he forced the nutcases out to the spotlight. He has put the GOP in the worst light possible. His rhetoric forces the other candidates to make themselves more extreme.
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/09/16/how-the-tea-party-got-hijacked-by-trump-s-troll-party.html – This is from a former republican insider who sees what has been unfolding as it is. He knows if the GOP continues on this path, they will get totally shellacked next year and piss even more people off.
I think Trump is doing this on purpose.
If our suspicions are true, and he is doing this to hurt the republican party… he might actually get my kudos. This would be one of the most prolific trollings ever to take place and everyone will laugh at how ridiculously naive republicans are.

@BJ McFrisky: Far left one? Oh that’s right being left wing means I have some logic. The most you have is a walnut sized brain and no real logic.
