Truth is Funnier Than Fiction

"Number of words in Palin's Tea Party speech: 5,442

Number of written words (on her palm) to get her through it: 5

Number of words in Obama's State of the Union: 7,314

Number of written words (on his teleprompters) to get him through it: 7,314

So for every word spoken in a speech, Obama requires 1,088 times as much help as Sarah Palin."

Truth is much funnier than fiction.
