SNL journeys to Moon President Gingrich’s lunar utopia

Life will be sweet on Newt Gingrich's moon base. We'll all wear awesome retrofuturistic jumpsuits, children will serve as janitors at their own schools, and Vice-Admiral Herman Cain will be there to greet us with a warm secret space handshake. And, of course, President Newt will rule over it all, defending truth, divorce, and the lunar way.

This was last night's Saturday Night Live cold open. I'll say this for Gingrich's secessionist moon base: they wear some snazzy uniforms.

Hulu-friendly regions can also watch the sketch on Hulu.
