I know it was you, Newt.

Meet Dede Scozzofava. She’s one of the potential Republican candidates entering the special election to replace John McHugh’s congressional seat. She won the prestigious Margaret Sanger award. Plus…I mean, she’s a sweetie.
I mean, look at her! She’s got warmth and compassion oozing from every pore! Sure, a movement existed just months ago to draft her as a Democrat because she would vote like Hillary Clinton, but pish tush. Now, conversely, let’s look at bad ol’ Doug Hoffman, another candidate who is also running.
Oh, what a stick in the mud this guy looks like. Seriously. He’s not even smiling, emanating the power of a thousand rainbows. Finally, there’s this lady.
Ohhh, ha ha ha! The joke’s on me! This isn’t a candidate for Congress! This is Margaret Sanger! The lady whose award darling Dede won! Now, I don’t know about you, but I’m in my twenties…and I don’t remember reading much about this lady in high school…or college, for that matter. Well, a while ago, I did a little research on eugenics, this wonderful cultural and scientific movement in the early 20th century that spread all over the Western world, but particularly took root in the United States. Oh, and Germany.
In a nutshell, eugenics went like this: The superior human beings should be allowed to breed, and the inferior ones should…well…die. All they’re doing is mucking up the gene pool. However, just outright killing them might look kinda shady. So, how about we sterilize all these…um…let’s call them “undesirables.” What are undesirables? Oh, you know…the mentally handicapped(and those with low grades in school). Criminals. Prostitutes. Epileptics. The f***ing poor:
It is a vicious cycle; ignorance breeds poverty and poverty breeds ignorance. There is only one cure for both, and that is to stop breeding these things. Stop bringing to birth children whose inheritance cannot be one of health or intelligence. Stop bringing into the world children whose parents cannot provide for them. Herein lies the key of civilization. For upon the foundation of an enlightened and voluntary motherhood shall a future civilization emerge.
- Margaret Sanger’s pamphlet “What Every Boy and Girl Should Know”, 1915
Let’s just round them up, take them into a building, and forcibly operate on them to the extent that they can no longer bear children, because we know better. I hear it’s going remarkably well overseas! You know what else this wonderful ideology could achieve? It could get rid of those pesky black people!
“We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population,” she said, “if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”
Woman’s Body, Woman’s Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America, by Linda Gordon
Oh, absolutely. Imagine if they rose up and refused to be part of a giant “purification” movement! That might avert the possibility that one day, the black population would account for over one-third of all abortions, despite being only 12% of the population! We can’t let that great achievement get away from us just because they think they’re equal to us!
So, decades later, an award named after one lovely woman is accepted by another lovely woman, Dede Scozzafava, and she’s just tickled about it. Newt Gingrich and the National Republican Congressional Committee are just tickled about it. Anyone else tickled about it?

Is the GOP really that desperate for candidates? yikes!
painfulTruthDisciple on October 16, 2009 at 9:08 PM
Does anyone still think the GOP is conservative?
If you do I can get you a good deal on a bridge.
single stack on October 16, 2009 at 9:20 PM
Not tickled at all. I’ve posted many times (not on HA) about Sanger and eugenics. I’m surprised at Newt, maybe I shouldn’t be but I am.
beachgirlusa on October 16, 2009 at 9:21 PM
I can not believe this. The GOP is hopeless and now I fully understand why they fear Palin and hate the base. the base of the party to them are the “undesirables.”
unseen on October 16, 2009 at 11:09 PM
The GOP is the answer to reestablishing our Constitutional foundation! Believe!
True_King on October 16, 2009 at 11:14 PM
What’s actually ironic is that the district is very conservative and the GOP is trying to push this socialist onto them.
You too, Brutipie?!
True_King on October 16, 2009 at 11:15 PM
Definitely shocked by Newt’s endorsement.
About the Sanger award: it’s not like the information on this nutjob isn’t readily available. What is our cultural excuse, then? I mean, seriously…they haven’t even renamed the award out of shame.
We are so doomed. It was nice knowing all of you…
Diane on October 16, 2009 at 11:16 PM
Doug, meet Sarah. Sarah, this is Doug.
Mr. Wednesday Night on October 17, 2009 at 12:08 AM
Kind of sums up why the current protests against Obama’s policies are from the ground up and not the other way around. The political experts in Washington and at a lot of the state Republican committees still think it’s January 2009 and are scared to death to challenge either Obama or the policies of congressional Democrats because, gosh, they just won a mandate.
They don’t want to stick their toes in the water or stick their necks out at least until they see the results of the handful of elections in three weeks, because in their hearts, they think the big media and Democrats may be right, and all this Tea Party/Townhall stuff really may be just a vocal minority, and they’re not going to believe it’s real until they see some election results.
jon1979 on October 17, 2009 at 12:46 AM
We should put out an ad if people want to run as a Republican: Conservatives only, RINO’s need not apply.
yoda on October 17, 2009 at 6:29 AM
If this piece of human dung, a supporter of infanticide, is endorsed by Newt & the GOP, then today, now, I officially disavow any connection to the Republican Party.
Jeff from WI on October 17, 2009 at 7:17 AM
After the couch with Pelosi to promote a left wing cause, Newt cn no longer surprise me. He has cauht the Washington insider disease and should be written off by real Conservatives
bill30097 on October 17, 2009 at 8:46 AM
I gave Doug my $10 last night, and encourage you to do so as well.
This is absolutely infuriating, and another reason why I’m not sending any money to the GOP or NRCC. I had been giving money to the NRCC, but no more. The money goes direct to Bachmann, Joe Wilson, and others of their ilk.
Fallen Sparrow on October 17, 2009 at 8:50 AM
What a coincidence. I just responded by old-fashioned mail to a hokey “RNC Census” asking me a bunch of stupid, you-know-the-answer-already questions. As if me taking time to answer them will make me feel like I’m being heard. I have responded that they will not be getting any money from me, it’s all going to individual, CONSERVATIVE candidates. I’m done.
I also responded that if they don’t close the ‘10 primaries, I’ll be registering as an Indy. There’s no reason for me to be a Republican anymore.
hoosiermama on October 17, 2009 at 8:55 AM
Is this post by Patrick Ishmael or MadisonConservative?
aengus on October 17, 2009 at 8:55 AM
MadisonConservative. I’m guessing it’s a WordPress error related to the upgrade. Pretty sure they’re working on it.
Patrick Ishmael on October 17, 2009 at 8:57 AM
I have been thinking about becoming an Independent since last year’s primary. I will no longer be hounded by dinner time phone calls asking for money to support RINO’s like Snowe, Collins and the rest of the ilk that continue to support liberal politicians and my mile-high mail volume will disappear begging for money. Hmmm, I like that idea. Jeff, we may have started a movement.
yoda on October 17, 2009 at 8:57 AM
That’s the problem with the Beltway/Big Apple folks, they think they are being pragmatic when they sell conservatism down the river. And then they get insulted when we question what they really believe. Excuse the hell out of me for being a tad confused.
Cindy Munford on October 17, 2009 at 8:59 AM
I’ll play devil’s advocate here: can an honest-to-goodness conservative win in that district? Or does the GOP need to field candidates who can actually WIN those left leaning seats and possibly convert the new electees to the ways of conservatism down the line?
Sanger is a non-issue, IMHO, unless Dede Scozzofava actually endorses privately or publicly the views that woman held. If that is the case, then such knowledge should be brought out in the light for public scrutiny.
While I dream of a viable third party that is conservative to its core, our only hope at this point is to remake the GOP into that party. If Reagan could do it, sure we can as well…
itzWicks on October 17, 2009 at 9:00 AM
So people shouldn’t vote for a person because that person won an award named after another person who wrote some silly things in a book? Come on. That’s just stupid.
SoulGlo on October 17, 2009 at 9:08 AM
Is that what you got from that? Abortion as a method to direct the ethnic make up of the population is silly things in a book? Interesting.
Cindy Munford on October 17, 2009 at 9:10 AM
Yes.
If you’re winning a Margaret Sanger award, you are unacceptable for elected office, particularly under the auspices of the GOP.
Fallen Sparrow on October 17, 2009 at 9:14 AM
Unfortunately, a third party would only doom the GOP even more. You are correct to say the GOP needs to be remade into a more conservative party before the liberals destroy our everyday life.
yoda on October 17, 2009 at 9:16 AM
“I know it was you, Newt.”
Well, who the hell did you think it was sitting with Nancy Pelosi warning against global warming?
Marcus on October 17, 2009 at 9:23 AM
Rs and Ds are just just pigs that share time

PhreeMan on October 17, 2009 at 9:26 AM
I’m surprised at Newt,
//
When he took a little fun run w/sharpton over seas,he was done for me.
ohiobabe on October 17, 2009 at 9:29 AM
Agreed.
At some point we need to live as if we BELIEVE that ideas matter. Most philosophy flies under the radar, but some ideas are conspicuously egregious and should be abandoned post haste. Remarkably, Sanger (even with full disclosure of her wretched ideology) is still evoked. It’s crazy-making!!!
Endorsement of, and by extension voting for, a candidate awarded this is tacit approval of the philosophy. An idea like this offers zero room for neutrality.
An aside: I think this would be an interesting springboard topic for a discussion about real racial animosity on the right…ooooh…that’s a firestarter, isn’t it?
Diane on October 17, 2009 at 9:31 AM
I donated yesterday to Hoffman and let the nrcc know they will not be getting any donations from us.
ohiobabe on October 17, 2009 at 9:32 AM
Eternal optimists, all. We hope for the best from someone with a record like his…
Diane on October 17, 2009 at 9:34 AM
While I’m at it,I am sick of Hannity always wanting to know what gingrich thinks.He is not a conservative sean,who cares what he thinks?!
ohiobabe on October 17, 2009 at 9:35 AM
She’s an Ayatollah plant … pay no attention to her. They make a bit of noise, Newt, Cornyn, McConnell, et al – but their days are done.
HondaV65 on October 17, 2009 at 9:39 AM
This is exactly what Glenn Beck means when he says it is both the Rs and the Ds, and I am NOT promoting a third party candidate. But what the heck????????
mobydutch on October 17, 2009 at 9:41 AM
The GOP has been overrun with RINOs’
hawkman on October 17, 2009 at 9:47 AM
Minor correction. Sanger was actually against abortion, but was the patron saint of contraception. She was essentially a socialist street organizer whose life work became pushing the legality and wide spread use of contraception. As part of that, she fell in with the neo-Malthusians and advocated detention camps and forced sterilization of those she deemed undesirable. She was also started of a project to introduce birth control to blacks, as noted. The organization she founded, the American Birth Control League, became Planned Parenthood.
obladioblada on October 17, 2009 at 9:48 AM
Don’t Dispair … check this bro …
Look – she’s one of they Ayatollah’s candidates and she’s been spotted. She’ll now be stopped because the GOP Ayatollahs don’t run this party anymore. We don’t need a third party because we (conservatives) have already WON the GOP as our own. We just have to purge the RNC and the NRSC and NRCC of Ayatollahs.
It’s all good.
HondaV65 on October 17, 2009 at 9:50 AM
Great Post MadCon.
Mark30339 on October 17, 2009 at 9:51 AM
While accepting the award likely means you’re pro-choice (and thus an odd Republican candidate), it doesn’t make you a eugenicist, and tarring a recipient with that brush is a little unfair. Anger is know and (in this case) recognized for her contributions to women’s reproductive health; her role as a eugenicist is negligible.
George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were both slaveholders, but that doesn’t make someone who invokes their names or is honored in their names a segregationist.
Bleeds Blue on October 17, 2009 at 9:52 AM
When Newt’s organization gives you a call asking you to answer a survey question, then makes you listen to a prerecorded message from Newt. Listen and wait. And then tell them you REFUSE TO SUPPORT NEWT or HIS PAC because he endorsed this awful candidate for NY 23.
Newt will get the message when his PAC loses some money support.
texasconserv on October 17, 2009 at 9:54 AM
Newt will get the message when his PAC loses some money support.
///
After all the tea parties and the town meetings,if he hasn’t gotten the message,he never will,and it doesn’t matter to me if he comes around at all.We need new blood!!!
ohiobabe on October 17, 2009 at 9:58 AM
The takeaway here is what I’ve been saying for a long time – that the RNC, the NRSC, and the NRCC need to be CUT OFF from our donations.
I’ve repeated it time and again and I’ve said – “they take our money and fund RINO’s with it.”
They don’t just do that though – they fund RINO’s who are running against Conservatives …
Now – it appears that Hoffman is a member of the CONSERVATIVE PARTY in New York – he’s not a Republican – however – who cares??
And it’s a complete embarrassment that the NRCC is supporting a liberal against a Conservative.
This is an opportunity to show the GOP Ayatollah’s who is really in control of the party.
Send Doug Hoffman money here … then write your republican Congressman and tell him or her why you did it.
HondaV65 on October 17, 2009 at 10:05 AM
Driving To Hell…Republicans Have To Understand That We Don’t Want To Get There Slower! We Want To Go In The Other Direction!
PierreLegrand on October 17, 2009 at 10:09 AM
Newt ate our collective metaphorical liver with a side of Scozzofava beans.
Nosferightu on October 17, 2009 at 10:16 AM
Has Lindsey Grahamnesty endorsed her or perhaps the former President?
I too one thought that Newt cared about the country and many claimed he was out for himself only. They were right, I was wrong at the time. I’ll never trust anyone with that baggage in tow again. The GOP is perfectly satisfied with being the minority party of go along to get along. Please, somebody get that .300 mag rifle out and put that elephant out of it’s misery.
larvcom on October 17, 2009 at 10:17 AM
You don’t often hear the truth about Sanger because eugenics became extremely unfashionable after WWII, something nobody was ever in favor of. So now we get infanticide cast as a question of choice and “making sure every chile is a wanted chile”, and other such claptrap.
At this point, Newt and the rest of the beltway RINO establishment can take a long walk off any pier they chose; I am fed up with GOPer’s who don’t stand for a blasted thing.
mcassill on October 17, 2009 at 10:18 AM
Alright I just made my meager contribution to Hoffman’s campaign.
DFCtomm on October 17, 2009 at 10:18 AM
Great work Madison. From Newt’s global warming commercial with Pelosi to his retraction of the initially correct statements about Sotomayor’s racism, he has shown us he is willing to squander his brilliance to be just another RINO. And now that I think about it, its high time that we retire RINO as a pejorative. Being a hand wringy liberal lite is exactly what the Republicans have turned into, and they no longer bear any resembelance to conservatives. Maybe we can come up with a name that indicates someone who is trying to claim conservatism, but is secretly a big government tax and spend traitor. How about a “HUCK”? Just and idea.
Kataklysmic on October 17, 2009 at 10:20 AM
LOL do they really have a Margaret Sanger award?! I may give y’all conservatives sh*t on a regular basis…but these types are just beyond parody.
ernesto on October 17, 2009 at 10:23 AM
Thanks for the clarification. Would I be going out on a limb thinking that our current situation could have snowballed from her earlier crusades? If not, she still doesn’t seem like a person whose name on an award would be something I could or would covet.
Cindy Munford on October 17, 2009 at 10:23 AM
Planned Parenthood gives out this award. Say what you want in defense of Margaret Sanger, her actions laid the groundwork for what is now the most prolific abortion mill in America. If this organization has given to this woman the Margaret Sanger award, she is not one whom I want my money going to support and certainly not who I want in office.
Jvette on October 17, 2009 at 10:27 AM
The sad part is I just got one of those recorded messages from Boehner asking me to donate to the NRCC, and in this message he specifically mentioned getting rid of the RINOs, but this is the kind of candidate they support? The only thing sadder is that I was duped into contributing. I feel shame.
DFCtomm on October 17, 2009 at 10:27 AM
I just noted it was you Madison. Good job.
Cindy Munford on October 17, 2009 at 10:27 AM
Newt’s name was being thrown into the ring to run for President in 2012 months ago during the first tea party rallies. Most of the attendees that I stood by groaned when his name was mentioned.
Newt had his time and now it’s time for a real conservative to come forward.
yoda on October 17, 2009 at 10:33 AM
A lot of you have mentioned Newt’s sitting with Nancy Pelosi promoting that global warming hoax, but you fail to mention that Newt also worked hand-in-hand with Hillary Clinton to push through health care legislation back in 2005 and more recently he’s been going around with Al Sharpton to promote educational reform.
Oh, and by the way, Lindsay Graham and John McCain both believe that we desperately need to fix global warming . . . er, um . . . make that “climate change.”
How many times do we have to get burned by the Grand Old Party before we’ll come to our senses and realize there is nothing we can do to change it. And to heck with being an “independent,” that just means you sit on a fence . . . which I don’t.
I’m sick of this crap. I’m switching to the Constitution Party.
Special K on October 17, 2009 at 10:40 AM
Thanks.
aengus on October 17, 2009 at 10:40 AM
The Conservative Party was created in New York State in 1962 because the state GOP has chronically decided well before the fact that conservative candidates can’t win there. While there’s no doubt there are certain areas where a conservative in the state is going to have all kinds of problems, when you look at the current environment, October 2009 is not October 2008, but the state’s Republicans are acting as if the big media down in NYC is right and we’re still dealing with an Obama-Biden juggernaut. The NYS GOP is like a long-suffering football team that doesn’t believe in their main game-plan to beat their rival, and has to resort to trick plays to try and get the job done.
And, just as a Two Degrees of Separation type of thing — The same thing that’s happening in this race happened back in 1970, with the New York State Senate race, only in that one, the conservative candidate was William F. Buckley’s brother, James, who won a three-way race for the Senate seat. The Republican he was running against, who was deemed too liberal by most of the state’s GOP voters, had a son who was in the news this week, involving another incident that conservatives aren’t too happy about.
jon1979 on October 17, 2009 at 10:43 AM
I believe that she was a driving force in getting us where we are today (but if it wasn’t her, it would have been someone else.) She’s the patron saint of Planned Parenthood.
If you happen to agree with her views (I don’t), she’s a feminist icon– a passionate and indefatigable advocate who took on culture and the legal system to bring out her changes. Her first newsletter “The Woman Rebel” is a beautiful example of a radical, feminist, socialist screed (think of the anarchist posters on street corners). If you also exam her friendships with the NYC avant garde and intellectuals and her reputed affairs with Havelock Ellis and H.G. Wells, she has a certain Che-like chic.
obladioblada on October 17, 2009 at 10:48 AM
Newton Leroy McPherson-Gingrich has no place in the modern Republican party. Seems to me like he’s just trying to ride the tea parties’ coattails to another election victory.
He had his chance back in 1994, along with Joe Scarborough and Dick Armey and co. There is nothing Newt has to say anymore that I will take seriously. Pretty words, yes, but sit down and shut up Newt. We don’t need you anymore.
gryphon202 on October 17, 2009 at 10:51 AM
Yikes.
The way the GOP is acting, they’re basically forcing a third party run.
Norwegian on October 17, 2009 at 10:53 AM
I’m all for a big tent, but a Margaret Sanger award should disqualify this twit for memebership in the human race.
Laura in Maryland on October 17, 2009 at 10:53 AM
I guess that’s how the liberal overlook the racism. More of their ends justifying the means. In a perfect world birth control would have been considered the end of abortion.
Cindy Munford on October 17, 2009 at 11:01 AM
MadCon— Great post, Bro.
Mad props from a fellow badger…
W/r/t the rinos… might we apply some of Sanger’s principles (politically) to rid ourselves, at last, or this cancer? The “big tenters” are delusional if they think the R party should emulate the brainless, Godless, spineless, clueless Statist party currently running us off a damned cliff.
We don’t need a big tent, we need to cleanse the rolls.
roscopico on October 17, 2009 at 11:04 AM
We have to face the fact that Newt has had most of us fooled for a long time. He loves to place himself behind some lectern high up on some stage where he can look “down” at the uninformed. Then he’ll rattle on and on spewing all sorts of stats and really say nothing. Newt is always too eager to walk across the isle and sit at the table of compromise with the Constitution-hating left. Newt is a McCain style moderate, make now mistake. And Newts 1st loyalty is the GOP – not the Conservative Movement.
Thanks MadisonCon for exposing another of Newts dark facets. DD
Darvin Dowdy on October 17, 2009 at 11:04 AM
What do you think the Tea Party is all about? The rank and file have figured out that the RNC is clueless about what the real issues are. Further, the coveted Independent voter has figured out that the Republicans that run the party don’t have any principles and become Democrats once elected. Lindsey Graham anyone? So they might as well vote for the real Democrats.
pgrossjr on October 17, 2009 at 11:17 AM
WTF Newt has been neutered, We need some people with balls and backbone, That will spend more time in their districts and states. We need term limits on our own. You can tell me we can’t find more than one person out of a district that can stay honest for 2 to 4 years and then go back to being a real person.
uber on October 17, 2009 at 11:27 AM
Don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater – here’s the facts …
1. 90% of House Republicans refused to contribute to this woman’s campaign.
2. Mike Pence, Chairman of the House Republican Conference has refused to endorse her.
3. The National Republican Senatorial Committee infused a six digit sum into her campaign recently because she was losing ground to Hoffman and her campaign was broke.
Of the three facts above – only the last one seems troubling to me. It’s clear CONSERVATIVES have control of the majority of the party but the NRCC is the fly in the ointment.
Let’s put a face on those flies shall we. Target these guys for removal from office. GET THEM OUT!
Why should we walk away from the GOP and leave all our money with the RINO’s? That’s our money the NRCC is giving to Liberals and we need to take our money back.
First step is – don’t throw any more good money after bad – don’t give the NRCC any more money. And don’t give the NRSC or the RNC any either because they do exactly the same.
First step – no more money for them.
Second step – get them out of leadership in the NRCC. This will happen NEXT YEAR after the congressional elections I assure you.
Don’t walk away from your money by moving to a third party.
TAKE YOUR MONEY BACK
TAKE YOUR PARTY BACK.
HondaV65 on October 17, 2009 at 11:41 AM
And this is why I’m a registered Independent.
I can’t stand any party. I judge each candidate based upon their merits. The GOP is dem-light these days and the Dems are just total marxist wackjobs.
bridgetown on October 17, 2009 at 11:47 AM
This is why I give to Candidates and NOT the Party. This makes me sick. GOP is stuck on stupid.
IowaWoman on October 17, 2009 at 12:00 PM
Remember, it was the CT law against contraception that the SCOTUS struck down that emboldened Bernarde Nathanson et al to go after the abortion laws, resulting in Roe. (Nathanson repented, as has Norma McCorvey, as y’all know.)
Plus, as has been pointed out, the Sanger Award is bloody from Planned Barrenhood’s filthy hands, which Newt has now rubbed on his shirt, and for what?
Nice job, Madison.
Akzed on October 17, 2009 at 12:35 PM
For political expedience, Akzed. I think Newt’s in for a big surprise if he thinks he can claim any sort of success for these Tea Parties.
gryphon202 on October 17, 2009 at 1:00 PM
Hey!!! RNC, RNCC, Gingrich….. WTF!!!!! Newt, go back and sit on Pelosi’s couch and be quiet.
ultracon on October 17, 2009 at 1:03 PM
So…we have a two party political system, and both of our political parties are fu©king insane.
Who’s idea was this?

Anyone know where we can write to share our thought with Neut?
Jaibones on October 17, 2009 at 1:06 PM
Most abortion clinics are located in black or hispanic areas… it’s not an award I would ever be proud to receive… and one I would certainly never work to earn…those who have should be ashamed but they don’t get it…
Just donated to Hoffman too!
CCRWM on October 17, 2009 at 1:31 PM
Yeah the negative eugenics movement (limiting reproduction) was the ideological father of Nazism.
So yeah, facts are stubborn things.
jhffmn on October 17, 2009 at 1:31 PM
An uncomfortable percentage of the GOP are little more than RINO’s. Newt’s sellout should not be a surprise, in fact, you can expect a wave of troubling sellouts going forward.
Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. The so called Republicans probably view the situation as being; if you’re not at the table, you’re dinner. So, with that in mind, they will be positioning themselves to take part in the feast rather than being the feast. Who will be served you might ask, I’m afraid that it is us that will be feasted upon.
Washington D.C. has become so corrupt, and the self-designated elites so entrenched, that the situation is not going to be solved at the polls, to believe so is delusional. You should be preparing yourself for the titanic struggle that is coming. It is going to be nasty.
mrpeabody on October 17, 2009 at 1:43 PM
Great job Madison!
Ooh, I don’t like that Newt. Hated him when I was a Lib, hate him now.
(Loved your Godfather play on words, LOL!)
Gob on October 17, 2009 at 1:46 PM
If Newt, as a newly baptized Catholic, endorsed this Nazi, he is pure s**t.
And to think I let him sign my Palin poster.
Please post the link that confirms his endorsement please so I don’t have a stroke for no reason.

I’m beginning to think that maybe they are deliberately doing this.
I’ll be happy with a third-party. It will be worth it to pull in libertarians/conservatives/Constitutionalists and then watch the GOP go the way of the Whigs and disappear in 10 years or less.

When I think of Newt, my mind turns to Hyman Roth, not Fredo. As in, “Your father did business with Hyman Roth. And your father respected Hyman Roth. But your father never trusted Hyman Roth.”

What he just did is a serious SIN. Granted Hoffman is not a Republican, but in the NY Conservative Party. Newt did not have to endorse this harpy.
He is now going the way of the other Brooks, Frum crowd.
They won’t stand on principle and then persuade people to their side.
They continue to cave in.

NO. Don’t call the new party the Conservative Party.
Buy the name rights for:
The LIBERTY PARTY

Yep.
There are two things mentioned by others here I did not know about Newt.
He’s now dead to me.
Looks like its just Sarah and Jim DeMint left.
Third-party, all the way. Now is when you strike and get the country back to a two-party system WITHOUT any GOP anymore.

This is one of the MANY MANY reasons I’m no longer registered Republican. (Tho, it was Shamnesty that pushed me out the door for good.)
And as to Gingrich, he broke my heart YEARS ago. Haven’t trusted him in years.

Don’t give your money to the RNCC or the RNSC.
I have not given them any money since during last year’s campaign and I only give to SarahPAC.
Give them ZERO money and let them know why.

I am only a Republican today because Sarah is. That is solely so I can vote for her in the GOP primary in my state.

Butt out BB. This is a family discussion so STFU!!!

FIFY

God, I hope she does put in an appearance so she can stand by her OWN WORDS that she would campaign for like-minded candidates.

This is the John McCainification of the Republican Party.
Michael Steele was the WORST POSSIBLE person for Chairman of the GOP. I told you all then and I am telling you now.
This wing of the Republican Party will keep us in constant minority status.

Ok, things aren’t always as they seem to appear. Fortunately for us, MadCon unabashedly removes the skew. This particular skew is about republicans that use abortion ideals as they see fit rather than have an honest position about the inhumanity of it. Nothing to see here. Move along. The real fun is looking at the fools who have no idea they are supporting abortion.
Has your local or favorite politician raced for the cure?
