The gecko is British. It was just a joke directed at Brits, if anyone.

This article seems like a ‘looking for a reason to be offended’ piece which isn’t common for AT

I agree. I just rewatched the commercial on youtube and it's quite a stretch to view it as a swipe at the tea party movement.

WINNER!

Geez people there are real things to be pissed at and to take action on. Some very dumb commercial is way down the list.

Why can't it be both? Original 1773 Boston Tea Party AND the current American TEA Party? Why not about both?

That way the company has an excuse to fall back on ("it's the 1773 Tea Party, get over it") when anyone complains or challenges them about its 2013 application - when in fact, they do want the 2013 version to be over.

Why not both? JMHO, but I'm just asking....

How naive of you. Geico is almost a separate wing of the Democrat party and they give them millions. Tell the truth. You just love the cute little lizard, right?
