Maggie Gallagher and the Bigots Get PWNED at the Starbucks Shareholders Meeting

"I'm switching to Folgers!"

Maggie Gallagher has had her last cup of Starbucks, it would seem. America’s most infamous professional bigot made her way to the Starbucks shareholders meeting today in hopes of dissuading the coffee giant from publicly supporting LGBT marriage equality in the state of Washington and beyond.

Before confronting whoever it is she expected to confront with her rather full bodied brand of haterade, Gallagher tweeted a photo of a Starbucks cup with the caption, “My last cup of #starbucks? It was free…”

And while Maggie herself has yet to speak at the shareholders meeting, Starbucks Chairman and CEO Howard Shultz made his position on the subject of LGBT equality absolutely clear to a pair of NOM-affiliated shareholders, telling the crowd:

“Any decision of this type or magnitude has be made with great thoughtfulness and I would assure you that a senior team at Starbucks discussed this. To be very candid with you, this was not something that was a difficult decision for us and we did share this with the board as well. [snip] We made that decision, in our view, through the lens of humanity and being the kind of company that embraces diversity.”

Oh snap!

We literally busted out laughing at the notion that Starbucks, a company with an estimated 38 Trillion gay baristas in employment, would for some reason weigh the rights of those employees below an imagined handful of anti-gay workers within the company. Nice try, y’all!

Thanks for having out backs, ‘Bucks!

Yeah, let’s worry about the decision to support marriage equality killing the stock price… except that the metrics on that are easy enough to find and the concerns easy enough to allay with facts. Once again, NOM goes for the jugular and totally misses because there’s an abundance of easy to access facts ready to totally refute their hysterics. Schultz does a great job cutting through the histrionics while coming across as respectful and polite. Nice work Mr. CEO.

she might want to switch to a diet too… she looks like santorum… at least the poo part of it!

my guess is she has been rejected by multiple men that would rather go gay then be with her…

I was with you, but the fat joke was uncalled for. Don’t fight bigotry with bigotry.

Way to go Starbucks Maggie Gallagher is a hate monger plain and simple she needs to crawl back under her rock and go back to hell!

I always loved Starbucks, now they have me forever as a fan and consumer. Way to go to supporting all families.

She dislikes herself and takes it out on others she can’t comprehend. Because her heart is two sizes too small.

She is so traditional marriage that she uses her maiden name because her married name sounds to foreign for the right-wing white-folk that fund her cause! Oh Margaret Srivastav, you crazy!

If you look at the picture of Maggot Gagginwhore’s hand holding the Starbucks “Gay Wedding Coffee Cup,” you’ll see it has abnormal splotchy reddening characteristic of heavily-drinking alcoholics.

Yes, because boycotting JCP and Toys R Us was such a HUGE success for Million Moms…lol.

I hope, for her sake, the makers of Doritos doesn’t
support gay marriage, or she’ll have to switch to Fritos–clearly an inferior
choice.

Hey! That’s not fair! I hear her doctor says she has an enlarged heart.

From what I can see she needs to back off the coffee for a while lol! Or at least the creamer

the fat joke was offensive, and a short intro on maggie might have been called for. Maybe somebody with more professionalism and focus should take over the writing? or just step back and take a deep breath. These posts are getting more and more shrill.

She really needs to lay-off those high calorie Starbucks drinks anyway. Clearly she doesn’t realize that obesity and diabetes are MUCH bigger problems than people being gay.
