SEAN: How about 5,000? If 5,000 show up in front of your house, you'll consider it, saying "Run, Jack, Run"?

JACK: Is this you orchestrating this? I'll consider it, how's that?

The above Illinois Leader quotes are NOT accurate. Just reviewed the tape of Hannity's interview.

Ryan does say: "Is this you orchestrating this?"

But he does NOT say, "I'll consider it, how's that?"

The Leader aspparently added that last little tidbit just to spice the story up.

Well, thanks for the note. And lo and behold, the interview just came on Fox News again.  Here's what I just heard: JACK: Is this you orchestrating this? Ar-i-i-i (smiling and laughing a bit) (Sean interrupts with what he says next.  Jack says his thanks and goodbye.) That's my report.  You decide. I've got a note to the Illinois Leader and I know their editor to be among our most honest of souls amid a very busy staff.
