Tancredo & Gingrich: Pees in a Pod

Of course I have a list of politicians I intensely dislike. Sometimes all it takes is to look at the morning newspapers, and the list gets longer—well, that’s how I got the list in the first place.

Close to Tommy-boy, though, is Newt. Somehow, after utterly disgraceful behavior toward his then-wife, Gingrich has managed to resurface through the scum. Now he’s promoting himself as a possible conservative candidate for president. The excerpt down below, is from a speech he made at a group called ProEnglish which should properly be called Pro-Anglo-American or maybe, Pro-White Folks. Their links lead you to various pro-south, anti-civil-rights, conservation web pages. My belief is that both these guys are closer to the spirit of David Duke than John Adams.

I have to admit, though, Tom Tancredo, Paleo-Re(pub)actionary, since Dick Pombo is gone, is close to the top of the heap. So I put the excerpt about Tancredo first. Newt is below that.

Tancredo: Abolish black, Hispanic caucuses

WASHINGTON - White House hopeful Tom Tancredo said Thursday the existence of the Congressional Black Caucus and other race-based groups of lawmakers amounts to segregation and should be abolished.

"It is utterly hypocritical for Congress to extol the virtues of a colorblind society while officially sanctioning caucuses that are based solely on race," said the Colorado Republican, who is most widely known as a vocal critic of illegal immigration.

"If we are serious about achieving the goal of a colorblind society, Congress should lead by example and end these divisive, race-based caucuses," said Tancredo, who is scheduled pitch his longshot presidential bid this weekend in New Hampshire.

WASHINGTON — American civilization eventually will collapse if government doesn't do a better job assimilating immigrants into society, possible GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich said Wednesday as he urged Congress to enshrine English as the nation's official language.

The former House speaker said political correctness and multiculturalism are clouding the debate about language.

"If you are pro-immigration to America, you should be pro-assimilation into English as the common language because in fact your children and grandchildren will have a dramatically better future if they are part of the common commercial civilization," Gingrich said.

He spoke at a news conference organized by ProEnglish***
