Dog Shelter Named for Gingrich

Newt's “Entrepreneur of the Year” award mistakenly given to Strip club owner. Funny.

Newt strips winner, 'er retracts said award and refunds the $5,000. donation. Hilarious.

Club owner uses the money to help build a home for Pit Bulls and names it "Newt's Nook." Priceless!

From Think Progress

Last September, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich retracted an “Entrepreneur of the Year” award he accidentally presented to Dallas strip club owner Dawn Rizos and refunded the $5,000 donation Rizos made to Gingrich’s American Solutions for Winning the Future. At the time, Rizos said she would take the money to build a shelter for unwanted pit bulls. The Dallas Morning News reported yesterday that “Newt’s Nook: A Home For Pit Bulls” is now open:

A North Texas shelter for pit bulls has opened this week, thanks to a Dallas topless club owner’s contribution after Newt Gingrich’s conservative group snubbed her donation. [...]

Rizos says she decided to “make something positive out of his bad manners.”

She redirected the money to Animal Guardians of America’s sanctuary for rescued dogs in Celina, about 35 miles north of Dallas.

Gingrich didn’t attend the opening of “Newt’s Nook — A Home for Pit Bulls.”

Is anyone surprised that so-called 'family values' Conservatives own strip clubs and topless bars? Hahahahahahahahaha.

Jokes like this can't write themselves, you know.

More later.
