Gingrich ‘Inadvertently’ Names Porn Company ‘Entrepreneur of The Year’ For Stimulating The Economy
Gingrich ‘Inadvertently’ Names Porn Company ‘Entrepreneur of The Year’ For Stimulating The Economy
This week, Allison Vivas of Pink Visual received a fax from Newt Gingrich’s American Solutions for Winning the Future (ASWF) group, informing her that she’s been chosen for a 2009 Entrepreneur of the Year award by his Business Defense and Advisory Council. From the letter obtained by ThinkProgress:
Newt would like to arrange a private dinner with you at the historic Capitol Hill Club on the evening of October 7, 2009 in Washington. You’ll dine privately with Newt at this exclusive venue and he’ll take the occasion to present you with your well deserved award and have your photo taken together.
This tremendous honor is a testament to your success in building your business and recognition of the risks you take to create jobs and stimulate the economy. As an award winner, you’ll be on the ground floor as Newt and his Council begin the work to turn this country around. … Newt is looking forward to hearing your ideas on getting the economy moving again and getting your feedback on his plans over dinner.
Pink Visual is a porn DVD superstore — not the type of company you’d expect Gingrich would want stimulating the economy. ThinkProgress contacted Gingrich aide Joe Gaylord, who sent the faxed letter to Vivas, but we didn’t receive a response. An ASWF representative reportedly called Pink Visual this morning saying it had “inadvertently” sent the fax to Vivas and was retracting the honor. Pink Visual’s marketing coordinator Q Boyer didn’t buy the excuse:
“Allison was disappointed to receive a call this morning from an ASWF representative stating that the fax had been sent to her ‘inadvertently,’” Boyer told AVN.com. “We’re not entirely clear on how one ‘inadvertently’ sends a fax to the right person at the correct fax number, so our sense is that this is damage control on the part of a group that is having second thoughts about either recognizing the excellent work of a porn company entrepreneur in light of their own conservative political and social orientation, or having second thoughts about their promotional methodology and communication protocols.”
Ironically, on May 17, 1995, Gingrich led a press conference on Capitol Hill announcing the Christian Coalition’s 10-point “Contract with the American Family,” a conservative legislative wish list. One of the items in the contract: restricting pornography. From Gingrich’s comments:
“We are committed to scheduling the hearings, to scheduling the mark-up and to scheduling the bills on the floor,” Gingrich said. “We’re committed to implementing the contract with the family.“
Gingrich’s Business Defense and Advisory Council appears to be an outreach to small businesses nationwide. We spoke with Larry Kudeviz, owner of Genesis Press in South Carolina and previous award-winner. Kudeviz said that when he attended the dinner with Gingrich recently, there were about 30 or 40 other entrepreneurs there. He, like Vivas, was surprised to get the award because he had never had any contact with the Speaker. Since the dinner, he has continued to receive e-mail updates from ASWF.
Jarvis Coffin, CEO and President of Burst Media, also received an invitation to attend the Oct. 7 dinner with Gingrich. In a post on the Huffington Post, he wondered how Gingrich’s group found his e-mail address and whether it was breaking FCC rules by sending unsolicited faxes. The outreach by ASWF left a “bad taste in my mouth,” wrote Coffin.
Listed on the agenda for the dinner is time for video testimonies. In the fax Gaylord sent to Vivas, this portion is circled with the note, “Please come prepared to share your thoughts on how we can help your business.” Vivas also received a fax showing a mock award and a replica of the “gavel that changed America” that she would be receiving:

I’m sure Allison Vivas stimulated more than JUST the economy.

September 11th, 2009 at 5:25 pmVivas also received a fax showing a mock award and a replica of the “gavel that changed America” that she would be receiving
– - Vivas, appealing to Newt’s overt chicken-hawk sensibilities, faxed Gingrich back, asking, “How’d you like to deploy your ballistic missile into my silo?”
September 11th, 2009 at 5:25 pmCan’t help wondering if “Burst Media” is the logical conclusion of a trip to a Pink Media Porn Superstore.
I think Ms. Vivas should show up anyway, invitation in hand and videographers following. But that’s just me.

In fact you all probably deserve a prestigious ‘Newty’ of your own, for stimulation and such.
September 11th, 2009 at 5:40 pmThis tremendous honor is a testament to your success in building your business and recognition of the risks you take to create jobs and stimulate the economy.
Really? And exactly who decided that this is even an “honor”, let alone a “tremendous” one?

It looks like Newt puts as much effort into vetting award winners as his old pal Flippy McSpin did in choosing a running mate. Let’s face it, GOoPers don’t do well with homework.
September 11th, 2009 at 5:51 pmha! this is a hoot!
although, think about it – if only ThinkProgress had NOT contacted Gingrich aide Joe Gaylord, then Allison Vivas of Pink Visual might have received that 2009 Entrepreneur of the Year award…
and wouldn’t THAT have been a bigger hoot!!!

Sheesh!
September 11th, 2009 at 5:59 pmI am a small business owner and I guess that Republicans would think that a business owner would of course be a Republican but that is not the case. I got a call from this group representing Newt that asked if I wanted to be on some Newt advisory panel. Being on this panel would get you invited to meet with Newt at some conference I guess. I listen to the person on the phone. It was typical Repub talking points. After a while I got bored and said I don’t think I would have time, and hung up. But Newt is out there trying to build a base of small business support.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:00 pmThe ASWF obviously needs to bone up on the candidate lists.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:01 pmNewt’s reach around to small businesses includes a doubling of insurance rates as he and his cronies deregulated the insurance industry. Computer records at leading business hotels show that porn is the most requested entertainment. The snub to Pink Visual is also a slap at hotel laundry services who busy themselves cleaning towels that have been emptied into. Family is a profit word to the Republicans.

September 11th, 2009 at 6:17 pmThe GOP is the Fringe with the Surrey on top…

What would Jesus do NOW Newt?
Me thinks he would be laughing his ass off and pointing the way South at you to Hotel Hell’s Hypocrite suite for a good long stay on his dime. Just sayin.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:22 pmWe’ve received a few of these kind of “awards”. Once you let them know that you aren’t a Republican they hang up on you. It’s all vanity marketing like the “Who’s Who” books.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:24 pmThese GOP operatives who create these groups with wildly misleading names crack me up.
Newt and the GOP remind me of the Ralph Nader associated term, Unsafe At Any Speed, only they are Unfit At Any Speed; even the very S-L-O-W speed of their intellect.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:29 pmThis is a typical Republican scam. During the last election season, I received a call from a similar Republican sponsored organization. I had retired from the practice of law and opened a small store. Needless to say, we were going under because of the economy (as did 70% of the other stores in the same line of business in our local.)
I was offered the award of business man of the year. Wow, never heard of them. I had received awards in the past from the bar, legal groups and corporate groups (I had been senior counsel to a large multinational aerospace corp.) Never had one come out of the blue like this. So I asked what specific achievements had led to this award. Needless to say, the person phoning could not mention any. So I then asked what the specific criteria were for the award. Again the person on the other end was left speechless. Finally, I said that I would love to attend the dinner and receive my award. This is when the fund raising started -as I expected that it would.
This is an old Republican fund raising trick. A phony award that can only be given if you attend the dinner and pay through the nose. I am sure it is offered to thousands on the chance that thirty or forty will be suckered in and raise 50 to 100K.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:31 pmNice emcee work, 5th Estate. ;)
September 11th, 2009 at 6:34 pmAnother example of those Republican Christian Family/Moral Values now introduced by Newt. Look if McCain/Palin had won the election this would be old news remember a Porn Star was inducted in the Bush Administration and all were proud of it, while still selling the Christian Family/Morals Values story to the Church goers. Maybe Sarah Palin will attend and wear that short, tight skirt and the high heels and give out samples.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:35 pmThis just goes to show you can’t be an economic conservative and a social conservative at the same time. If porn makes money in the free market, they deserve an award just as much as anybody else who makes money in the free market. Marketplace of ideas, yo. But if some things shouldn’t be allowed in the free market, then other things shouldn’t either. Slippery slope to Communism, onoes!

Yep, it’s just like those poetry publishing companies that print up and bind into a volume a book of poems by everybody who pays up $40 to buy at least one copy of the book. I don’t see what authority Gingrich has to be giving out business awards anyways.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:41 pmIt’s just a somewhat veiled criticism of the stimulus and another attempt to create a group of “real Americans” to beat the rest of Americans over the head. Pornography “stimulates” the economy as much as most other business. So does the black market in drugs, prostitution, and cheap labor.
The ASWF is free-market porn.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:42 pmZooey, you are discerning, but biased! :D
September 11th, 2009 at 6:46 pmElBruce. you’re right. If you believe in the free market, or freedom in general, support for the rights to pornography (assuming everyone is a consenting adult) should apply.

September 11th, 2009 at 6:58 pmThe same day that Speaker Pelosi and Leader Reid announced that they “would support any provision that increases competition and accessibility for health insurance – whether or not it is the public option favored by most Democrats” a chief lobbyist for UnitedHealth, Steve Elmendorf, sent an email blast inviting people to a $5,000/PAC or $2400/individual fundraiser in his home for Nancy Pelosi.

oh yeah?

September 11th, 2009 at 7:09 pmI used to know a fair number of liberal libertarians. (mainly engineering types…) they wanted as little government as possible, but also were pro-choice, pro drug legalization (ALL of then) and pro-sexual freedom. I couldn’t agree with them (they were against the FDA, for example) but they were honest about it.
These right-wingers–adopting libertarianism as long as it suits then, and then WHAM! suddenly they’re Christians, invoking Leviticus as God’s Law against gays and screaming about drugs and fornicAAAAtion.
Whenever the issue is about Christian duties, suddenly they’re all Ayn Randists saying selfishness is good and why should they give money to losers–but talk about human freedoms and they’re Old Testament.
This is because contemporary conservatism is a devil’s bargain, put together after Goldwater’s defeat. The Southern Strategy–fusing two incompatible philosophies.
If you’re going to live by the Law of God, that means help those who need it. If a man ask you for your shirt, give him you cloak also. The Good Samaritan. Whatever you do for the least of these, you do for me. Blessed are the poor in spirit.
Or if that doesn’t float your boat, Freedom for a woman’s right to choose–freedom for gays and Lesbians to marry–freedom to get high the way you want to, freedom to watch Cornhole Armageddon I, II, and II if you want.
One or the other.
But these Republican ‘Libertarians’–libertarians only so their masters can keep their wealth, and Christianity only to show their bigotry. Christians who don’t serve and libertarians against freedom.
And here it is in a nutshell.
September 11th, 2009 at 7:11 pmGee, I would have accepted it and waited to see when Newt’s gang realized their mistake.

WASHINGTON – Senators closing in on a comprehensive health care bill have whittled away all but the most contentious issues and one of those loomed large Friday: coverage for illegal immigrants.
They should get a Newt look a like to star in the their next film.
September 11th, 2009 at 8:36 pmThey should put a sticker on all their DVD packages proclaiming their award. Maybe a full size Newt cutout for the gay porno section.
September 11th, 2009 at 8:39 pmI don’t know Neut would pull an award away from a porn distributor, when he seems to be supportive of all the naked stupidity the GOP has engaged in over the past 30 years.
And Wiz @ #82 – Man, I wish I’d thouoght of that …
September 11th, 2009 at 8:43 pmHeHe. This is great – but I really wish they had let it play out and waited until the “private dinner … at the historic Capitol Hill Club”
“Thank-you for this prestigious award which I gratefully accept on behalf of all my friends and colleagues in the adult entertainment industry.” The picture of Newt’s jaw hitting the floor would be classic.

Just more proof that facts have a way of disrupting the most polished, extraordinary pile of CRAP these clowns can conceive…must be that red clay that keeps sticking in their brains…(that’s actually a misnomer since by definition hillbilly’s have no brains…)
September 11th, 2009 at 10:36 pmNo, stupid troll. Porn is apolitical and intended for anyone who can afford it. In fact, there’s plenty of data that Reichwhiners may buy a disproportionate amount of porn. It’s more popular in red states.
On a more humorous note: Do you think that Newt told the current Mrs. Newt that he thought he was giving an award to a insulation manufacturer?

CCC said,
Do you have any evidence that porn is made by more liberals than conservatives? Do you have any evidence that porn is purchased more by liberals than by conservatives? Do you have any evidence that gay porn is more the domain of liberal porn makers and consumers than conservatives? If you do not provide evidence of these statements, I must assume you just made them up, and therefore, you are lying.
I suspect the comment regarding gay porn is simply the troll exhibiting the homophobia of the fascist theocrat Republican Party.
Why do you hate homosexuals CCC?
September 11th, 2009 at 11:05 pmIf Ms. Vivas is half the businesswoman Newt thinks she is, the “gavel that changed America” will be featured prominently on her firm’s next film. The rest I leave to your rather fecund imaginations.

September 11th, 2009 at 11:12 pmYou are saying you never watched a porn flick?
Porn isnt made by liberals for liberals, thats just whackadoodle finger pointing.
Porn is made by those seeking to make a profit. Its called capitalism. Not the good kind of it, but it does profit thru peoples hidden desires. Yet I am willing to bet that you, CCC, are an advocate of ‘free markets’ which, btw, includes profiting from porn.

All things being equal, stimuli are annoying?!
Like football practice, stimulus is critical!
Along with stimuli, all opinions go forward!!
A liberal responds to stimulus, in spite of, the fact?
Conservatives offer opposing, stimulus!
New information, confuses stimuli!
Democrats take a bold stand, in spite of stimuli?
Tenured leaders, warn of stimulus!?
Schools take bold stand, to ensure, stimulus!
Some people are irritated, by stimuli!?
Evil tactics, reflect changed, stimulus!?
Republican leaders, urge stimulus caution!!
Secrecy, is demonstrated to inhibit stimuli?
New stimulus, corrupts old stimuli!!
(Peripheral companies, fail to utilize new stimuli!)
Locally, consumers are personally stimulated?!
The poor quality of reality, IS ALWAYS STIMULUS!
Stimulus, stimulates odd banners?
Odd video footage, is not really stimulating!!
After all, wearing armor deflects stimuli!!

nah, I don’t buy it, pete, but I gave it an up vote. I think ConcountryclubTroll doesn’t get TNT; he doesn’t have cable or dish/satellite, just some bunny ears on an old Zenith B&W. He only gets to watch Caddy Shack when an over-the-air channel broadcasts it. And the ladies at the public library move away from him when he comes in to go on-line.
September 12th, 2009 at 12:56 amI’ve always thought that Snow White had enormous porn potential.
Seven Dwarfs. Seven Dicks. Seven Studs. Seven essential positions. All of them would be gold.
September 12th, 2009 at 1:01 amGood point, Virtual Pebble. But? He might steal cable. Heck! He might have even recorded Caddy Shack at his Mom’s place.

Which is it, have you never watched it, or have you watched it and found it “disgusting and for failures?” Which porno did you watch to make that determination? Perhaps I could recommend some others and you could give me your opinion on those.

Country Club Conservative says:

As an Internet conservative, you’re inevitably lying about such claims as regard your money and looks.
However, I find it interesting that you engage in sex outside of the sanctity of marriage, much less brag about it to a bunch of Godless liberals.
September 12th, 2009 at 1:30 amCCC has never had any trouble finding a “mate”. Hehehehehe. May I take this one??? Please????
When CCC refers to “mate” he means mate in the Australian sense of the word, as in “Hey ‘mate’, I’ll suck your [insert slang word for male sexual organ here] for a five spot.”
September 12th, 2009 at 1:52 amPeople that have Stimulation on a daily basis are MUCH healthier than flaccid folks. Better blood pressure, less stress, safer than any drug, and… FUN! And you know how much republicans HATE people having fun or being healthy.
September 12th, 2009 at 2:38 amEven the lie is fascinating.
For the Councel of Conservative Citizens here, sex is a matter of status. A matter of how rich and powerful you are.
“Hi! I don’t need porn because I’m rich nd good looking, and have therefore found myself a fabulous mate!”
This is proof positive he’s had little or no sex–and definitely none in aa relationship that’s lasted more than, oh, a week.
-end.
It’s the way boys think when they’re 26.
Because the other guys are jealous of going out with the pretty cheerleader, they assume the sex must be better.
Hate to burst your bubble, CCC, sex with a dumpy plain girl or boy can be every bit as wonderful as sex with a supermodel (of either sex.
viz. Ron Jeremy.
Poor people have sex every bit as wonderful as rich people.
And porn is one way of acquiring that which is otherwise perilous to acquire: variety.
CCC is a teenager: not just for saying ‘I’m rich and handsome’ on the Internet–but by showing he’s never been in a relationship where the times you’ve had sex go into three figure, let alone 4.
Take it from an old roué, CCC: social Darwinism has nothing to do with sex.
September 12th, 2009 at 2:46 am(Let’s see if I trip a filter on this one…)
26?
September 12th, 2009 at 2:47 amI meant 16.
Though many do at 26…

Good call, pbeeg. Usually I just realize that a wingnut is lying whenever they present a personal claim as relevant to an argument, and move on. I don’t usually even try to diagnose what they’re really like, becaue all I need to know is that they’re all always lying all the time.
But your analysis is dead-on. Nobody over the age of, say, 22 conflates shallow measures of social status with getting their sexual needs met. And anybody who thinks that’s how it works isn’t getting their sexual needs met anyways or else they’d know better.
September 12th, 2009 at 3:02 amWayyyyyyy off topic.
As of today, President Obama has protected America one day longer than his predecessor.
September 12th, 2009 at 3:13 amThere is much more. Gingrich’s PAC “American Solutions For Winning the Future” also announced its Entrepreneurial of the Year award would go to “Paul Doughty” who was recently credited with taking down his second bank, First State Bank, Altus OK. He also took down the Oklahoma National Bank back in the 1980’s. Both resulting in criminal investigations.
The current investigation goes far beyond the bank. Doughty has also been involved in numerous other frauds and scams. Including defrauding Oklahoma of $126 million in tax credits, scamming two land owners out of $25 million in Colorado.
Doughty would make a good donor, and could certainly use some heavy influence right now. For the record let me say this is not a party issue. Doughty is not particular which party anyone belongs to. Doughty has members of both parties on his friends list.

It’s “Obama” with an a. Good luck learning to spell. And no, it obviously doesn’t involve ACORN at all.
Do you think that mentioning ACORN somehow embarrasses us? Think again. The work they do is good for communities and the country. None of the slanderous accusations that right wingers have raised have resulted in a shred of evidence whatsoever. They just get replaced with the next accusation every time somebody requests any proof of the last one. You may think this method is proving effective, but with every discarded accusation you only make the case more and more that ACORn is actually nothing more or less than an effective community service organization. After all, if any of your accusations had any evidence you’d think we would have seen it by now, wouldn’t you?
September 13th, 2009 at 12:34 amThe best belly laugh I have had in a week. Almighty Newt, selects a porn movie maker as a model entrepreneur. I think it was a subliminal wish, that he could be one of those porn stars just for a little while. Or perhaps, Newt needs to learn a second language!!
