On 01-03-98, DAVID HARTUNG declared to KEITH KNAPP:
DH> KK> to be run by the religious right.  IOW, this proposed legislation
DH> KK> would have used Federal power to take children away from their

that

DH> As I remember, Newt simply suggested that orphanages might be a viable

You are correct.  Keith's assertion is LIbEral hogwash spread far and
wide by a LIbEral Gingrich-hating/Conservative-hating media, hogwash
Keith was eager to not just wallow in, but swallow as well.
