* * * * Wednesday, August 12, 2009 Boycott GEICO *Did you know the Puff Ho called on **GEICO** to pull their ads from **Glenn Beck** because he dared **tell the truth**?* *Well, they did. Now I ask you to pull your business from GEICO. Seriously. NOW.* *GEICO Pulls Its Ads from Glenn Beck Show<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/james-rucker/geico-pulls-its-ads-from_b_256724.html> * *Great news -- yet another major company has acted in response to our campaign <http://colorofchange.org/beck/message.html> calling on Glenn Beck's **advertisers** to stop supporting his show. GEICO told us that they will no longer run ads during Beck's show. * *This comes on the heels of news last week<http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/fnc/glenn_becks_racist_comment_sends_advertisers_elsewhere_123710.asp>that four other advertisers -- Lawyers.com, **Progressive Insurance**, Procter & Gamble, and SC Johnson -- also distanced themselves from Beck. None of this would have been possible without the thousands of **people** -- more than 75,000, now -- who have taken action and signed our petition<http://colorofchange.org/beck>to Glenn Beck's advertisers. * *From the press release<http://colorofchange.org/beck/more/geico-release.html>we're sending out this morning: * *Atlas reader Lyn wrote:* *First they try to **destroy** Sarah Palin - now they're trying to **destroy ** **Glenn Beck**.*** *Yesterday I watched the **Glenn Beck** show and he got choked up about his disabled daughter. At the end of the show he said that the liberal blogs were already writing about him crying.*** *So I decided to see what they were saying and went over to Huffington Post. Seems they've been harassing Glenn Beck's **advertisers** and have gotten a number of them to pull advertising. This really pisses me off. Seriously thinking **Geico** is going to lose my business after 20+ years.** *** *So anyone who gets out there and speaks their mind against this evil bullcrap is going to get destroyed. We had to listen to the spewing of endless venom and hatred for Bush for 8 years. What about all their **conspiracy theories** they had going on when Bush was in office? I don't recall anyone talking about them being complete nuts and as far as I know no one was out to **destroy** those **people** when they spoke their minds. *** *If it wasn't for you and **Glenn Beck** I doubt I would ever have known about a lot of stuff that's happening. I check out most of the stuff I read so know it isn't complete crap. It isn't all just "crazy talk." I've been wondering for a while why this stuff doesn't scare the hell out of everyone. I used to think liberals could have their opinion but now am thinking they are deranged and evil. *** *I guess they decided to **destroy** **Glenn Beck** after he said Obama is a racist. He's only speaking the truth. Before the election I had never heard of Obama, so before I voted I went online to do some research. It took me only a few hours to make the decision that I could NEVER vote for him. The deciding factor (among many) was the fact that he sat and listened to Rev. Wright for years. Only someone who is prejudiced would EVER sit and listen to that venom for more than a minute. *** *Posted by Pamela Geller on Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 06:56 PM in Criminalizing opinion and party affiliation<http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/criminalizing_opinion_and_party_affiliation/>, How the Left Destroys the Nation<http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/how_the_left_destroys_the_nation/> **|** Permalink<http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2009/08/boycott-geico.html> * TrackBack *TrackBack URL for this entry: http://www.typepad.com/services/trackback/6a00d8341c60bf53ef0120a4ebcb86970b * *Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Boycott GEICO<http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2009/08/boycott-geico.html> :* __._,_.___ Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/grendelreport/join;_ylc=X3oDMTJnOTV1NGRzBF9TAzk3NDc2NTkwBGdycElkAzIwMTk0ODA2BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTMyMzY2NwRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNzdG5ncwRzdGltZQMxMjUwMTc3Njk3>(Yahoo!
