Progressive Insurance..Liberals

Here is an email I opened this morning thought I would share with you guys about the man behind progressive insurance. I did a quick search and did not see it on here yet. Some of you may care where your sending your money. According to snopes it is True.
Here is a link
snopes.com: Progressive Insurance - Peter Lewis Donations

> I have often thought, while watching one of their "cutesy" commercials,
> that their company name was unfortunate in this political climate.
> Little did I know how well it fits!!
>
>
> 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. 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 an 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

> 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

> 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

> 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

I got a cheaper quote yesterday from them on my new Polaris. I'll be spending a little more to go elsewhere. I knew of this and don't consider a bid from them.
