This is a heads up regarding Progressive Auto Insurance. You know who they are. They’re the ones with the clever television ads featuring the perky brunette actress all dressed in white. Watch commercials here if you are interested:
The owner of Progressive is one of the largest funders of the left in America . He’s your typical rich spoiled kid who took over the company from his father and apparently feels “guilty” for his success and now dedicates himself to making it impossible for anyone else to become wealthy.
Between 2001 and 2003, Peter Lewis funneled $15 million to the ACLU, the group most responsible for destroying what’s left of America’s Judeo-Christian heritage. Indeed, Lewis is himself an ACLU member. One of the ACLU projects he earmarked his funds for was an effort to sue school districts that have drug-testing policies. In other words, this idiot wants teachers to be able to use drugs without fear of exposure. I wonder what he would think if all his own employees came to work drugged out every day.
Lewis also gave $12.5 million to MoveOn.org and American Coming Together, two key components of the socialist left. The former group is perhaps the main group used by the Obama forces to organize their activists; the latter group is a 527 political action group that essentially served as a front for the SEIU union thugs who ran ACORN. His funding for these groups was conditional on matching contributions from George Soros, the international socialist who finances much of the Obama political network.
It’s disturbing that Lewis made a fortune as a result of capitalism but now finances a progressive movement that threatens to destroy the free enterprise system. He reminds me somewhat of Armand Hammer, the former head of Occidental Petroleum, who did business with Joseph Stalin and became his good friend around the same time Stalin was executing businessmen all over the USSR .
What angers me further is the way this company is targeting television shows watched by conservatives such as Fox News. Peter Lewis is making a fortune off of conservative Americans so that he can destroy our country. He’s banking on no one finding out who he is. I think it’s time we expose this clown.

Flat out amazing. Does the author of this tripe honestly believe this will resonate with any else beyond the sore winner "I got mine, the hell with you" types? Or does he believe that those aforementioned groups actually do represent a majority bloc?
I actually wish this would be public front-page news stuff: Any rational human being living in the real world would oppose these vipers with every fiber of their being...as would I.
I'm actually thinking of giving my business to Progressive next renewal go-round.
Maybe it's time for me to switch insurance companies.
TO Progressive. Thanks right wing forward!
"He’s banking on no one finding out who he is."
Yeah with a name like Progressive, who would ever guess?
"Between 2001 and 2003, Peter Lewis funneled $15 million to the ACLU, the group most responsible for destroying what’s left of America’s Judeo-Christian heritage."
So much so that they defended Rush Limbaugh and openly support the concept of corporate personhood.
Jackasses.
"He’s your typical rich spoiled kid who took over the company from his father and apparently feels “guilty” for his success and now dedicates himself to making it impossible for anyone else to become wealthy."
Ah, guilt over the unearned privelege he inherited from his daddy - I guess THAT must have been the explanation behind Dubya's screw-everyone-who's-not-already-super-rich approach to governance!
And let's criticize Armand Hammer for making money by dealing with Stalin, why conveniently forgetting that Grandpa Bush made money dealing with Nazi Germany!
As for Judeo-Christian heritage, well, that's an ambiguous phrase - while the Constitution is pretty clear about non-establishment of religion, it is true that there is a strong Judeo-Christian "heritage" in American culture. However, if you were ever to actually READ any of the texts of that "heritage" (you know, the Bible & the Torah), you might be suprised to find out how that heritage tends to natter on endlessly about lefty issues like chairty and righteousnes and tithing and compassion for the poor, while paying scant attention to most right-wing "issues". But hey - don't let facts stand in your way!
The extent to which the right projects its sins onto the left would be funny - if it weren't so psychotic.
Um, better than donating millions of dollars to buy legislators who will protect your own fortune.
Srsly, even if this guy really was trying to keep anyone else from getting rich ever again, I would not be that heartbroken.
So its shocking that the owner of a big corporation would use profits from that company to donate to the political party of his choice? Or its only shocking when its a Democrat?
The ACLU is part of our American Heritage too, thank zeus.
Oh and I'm already a Progressive customer. I do love their commercials. Now I love them more.
Well, HOORAY!
Nice that some rich people give a shit
about the rest of us. It's one of the reasons
that FDR was so damned awesome. Rich as
hell, but fought for the disenfranchised.
Greatest president ever.
Naturally, the uber-pigs and their remoras
hated him. If they didn't, then he'd have
been doing something wrong.
Right, piggies? I don't write here because
I want you to love me. I don't care to
convince you because facts and reality
don't matter to your dumb asses. I write
to the independents and undecideds.
They matter.
You do not.
I drink your hatred like it's Champagne.
"It’s disturbing that Lewis made a fortune as a result of capitalism but now finances a progressive movement that threatens to destroy the free enterprise system."
Money quote. The Koch brothers - known Libertarians out to destroy the USA - cannot stand it that someone almost as rich as they are has the brass iron balls to "care about the poor."
Geez, the Koch's really have their knickers in a knot over Peter Lewis. How DARE someone wealthy try to help the middle and lower classes???? Why why why it's the USSR all over again.
Numbskulls. Putzes. Idiots.
Why middle & lower class people read unvarnished sh*t like this and agree with it is way beyond me. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot and voting against your own interests.
I don't really like their ads (albeit they're probably quite effective), but upon learning more about Lewis, himself, I'm more kindly disposed to considering this company to purchase insurance.
What IS it with middle-class T-partiers to be so self-loathing that they'd be "mad" at someone rich, who displays humanitarian and philanthropic tendencies?
