3. Very good- ran last night, too

Biggest laugh: (lead in) Paul was saying that the media needs to be objective rather than "balanced"....That the media thinks having a dem and a repub offering two sides is just as good as being objective.

"If Bush said the world was flat, the headline would be 'Shape of Earth- Views Differ'."
