Newt Gingrich - what a visionary.
Now he's advised Hillary Clinton, who criticized his plan to warehouse welfare children in orphanages, to watch the film ``Boys Town'' to get an idea of what such institutions are really like.
I laughed so hard I almost hurt myself. If Gingrich believes Hollywood is known for accurately portraying reality on the big screen, maybe he can get Father Flanagan to testify before the House Committee on Orphanages.
Better yet, how about Mr. Bumble from ``Oliver''? Now there's a guy who could save the taxpayers some money.
