Last October,
renaissance grrrl wrote a diary about the
possible acquisition of Dunkin' Donuts by The Carlyle Group.
That acquisition occurred in March of this year.
Then last week, Bush made a PR visit to the local Dunkin' Donuts to promote a new immigration initiative.
President Bush stopped by a Dunkin' Donuts shop Wednesday to promote a program to help verify that workers are in the country legally. Behind the scenes, he explored a proposal for breaking a congressional gridlock over immigration legislation.
In addition, Dunkin Donuts is planning to quadruple the number of US Locations by 2020.
Dunkin' Brands Inc. executives said yesterday they plan to rely on multiple formats to rapidly expand to nearly 15,000 US locations by 2020, up from about 5,000 today.

At first, this looked like a simple endorsement to help his father's company, typical stuff for these crooks.
However, my conspiracy detector went on high alert. I asked myself: Are they planning to put something in the coffee? In Rhode Island, where I live, there is a Dunkin' Donuts on almost every corner, and the drive-thru lines are often spilling out into the streets. People, including me, are addicted to the coffee; I can't start my day without it.
That said, if any company could spike coffee with mind control syrum, it would be The Carlyle Group. Perhaps they could use a toxin in conjunction with television or radio to implant information into people's brains. Considering that some people still support George W. Bush despite his dismal record, perhaps it is already happening.
I know that I might sound like a nut, and have no direct evidence to support this theory. But I will be getting my coffee at Honey Dew from now on.
