So you'd base your decisions about news coverage on a comedy routine?

One day last week (I think), I heard Lionel on WTKK refer to GWB as a 
"retard".  Now that's a questionable one, which obviously would not 
be liked by the politically correct set, even though many of them 
probably agree with the sentiment expressed.  And many of those with 
learning disabilities are probably upset with being compared with GWB.
