Ok, so as you'll be able to see..all this does is gives you options to either save, view, or save and view the contents of the pastebin link provided. You can save it to whatever name you like (ex: goon.txt), and it automatically saves the full date in [DATE] after your selected name..

Code:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib
import threading,time
import sys
import time
import datetime

now = datetime.datetime.now()

pasteID = raw_input("Enter your pastebin URL:").split('.com/')
txtName = raw_input("Assuming, you're going to be saving as well, what would you like to save as?\nhint: no extension needed, auto-saves as a text file\n")
print "What would you like to do with this pastebin?\n\n1.) Print entire source\n.2) Save Source\n3.) Both view then save source\n4.) Exit\n"
choice = int(raw_input("Please choose (1-4):  "))
if choice == 1:
 URL = urllib.urlopen ("http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=" + pasteID[1])
 html = URL.read()
 soup = BeautifulSoup("".join(html))
 bsoup = soup.findAll("", text =True)
 print bsoup 
elif choice == 2:
 k = open(txtName + now.strftime("[%m-%d-%Y]") + ".txt","w")
 k.write(html)
 k.close() 
 print "sucessfully extracted: pastebin.com/" + pasteID[1]
elif choice == 3:
 URL = urllib.urlopen ("http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=" + pasteID[1])
 html = URL.read()
 soup = BeautifulSoup("".join(html))
 bsoup = soup.findAll("", text = True)
 print bsoup 
 k = open(txtName + now.strftime("[%m-%d-%Y]") + ".txt","w")
 k.write(html)
 k.close() 
 print "sucessfully extracted & saved: pastebin.com/" + pasteID[1]
elif choice == 4:
 print "Pastebin extractor, shutting down."
time.sleep(3)
sys.exit()

Unfortunately AF's [CO DE] tags don't save indents, do you mind uploading to (ignore the irony) pastebin?
