An interesting insight into Progressive Auto Insurance from Sean Linnane:
PROGRESSIVE AUTO INSURANCEThe name 'Progressive' says it all...
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 redhead actress all dressed in white.
What you might not know is that the chairman of Progressive is Peter Lewis, 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, 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 a ACLU member. One of the ACLU projects he earmarked his funds for was an effort to sue school districts who 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 become his good friend, around the same time Stalin was executing businessmen all over the USSR.
