The "I won't drink Starbucks coffee anymore" email. This email has been going around since 2004. The email claims that a Marine in Iraq wrote Starbucks asking that their coffee be sent to Iraq. Supposedly, Starbucks responds that they don't support the war or those that fight it. This email is false. This is an unusual email in that the original writer, a Marine Sergeant, as since realized he had bad info and has written an apology.
False - The original writer of the email admits that it is false.

The Bo's Vacation , How could America be so blind? email
False - There are so many things false about this email. First - the airport that the President was flying into was too small to accommodate Air Force One so two gulf stream jets were utilized. The gulfstream jet that delivered Bo, the first dog, was flying the remainder of the President's staff that couldn't fit on the first flight. It was not commissioned for Bo alone. Second - the email mentions that Mr (Reggie) Love is paid $102,00 a year to take care of Bo. Reggie love is paid $102,000 a year be the President's personal aid. He is not paid to take care of Bo alone.
I have said this before and I will say it again - We have enough to disagree with President Obama about without making it up.
The former President Bush visits Fort Hood, Texas and ordered to leave by President Obama email
Mixture of True and False - Former President Bush did visit injured troops after the Ft Hood attacks, but it was not unannounced and he was not asked to leave by President Obama.

The ACLU wants all crosses removed from National Cemeteries and Chaplains can't say Jesus in services - email
False - this one has been going around in different forms for years.....
The above portion of the email that describes the Santa Barbara Beach Memorial is true. See below video. Unfortunately, somebody has added the lines that the ACLU is trying to remove crosses from Military Cemeteries and that Chaplains are not allowed to say Jesus. We have enough things to fight the ACLU about without wasting our time on lies. Mark Wheatley, America's First Sergeant
