Conservatism has been an intellectual home to people like Burke and Buckley. The GOP is the party that gave us Lincoln and Reagan.It seems to me that its leaders ought to make it clear that they find what Dr. Corsi is doing to be both wrong and repellent. To have their movement and their party associated with such a figure would be a terrible thing and it will only help the cause of those who hold both the GOP and the conservative movement in contempt.
David Weigel in Reason fills in a little history about what The Maggot has been doing since 2004 and concludes:
Corsi's of a piece with the PUMAs and Larry Johnson: a shit-flinging lunatic who discredits actual lines of attack on Obama whenever he sidles up near them.
Even Allahpundit at HotAir thinks Corsi is a wacko!
