After last night’s debate, there is just one song that describes what I was drinking. Of course, there was a question of which version to use, so Shoebox chose it…

I’m still unloading the overloaded feed reader, but don’t let the size of the link list fool you. It’s Open Thread Thursday, so I’m counting on you, the not-so-gentle reader, to fill in the many blanks.
– Lawhawk notes wannabe ‘Rat candidate for Senate from Minnesota Al Franken neglected to file or pay California corporate income taxes for a corporation based in California he controls between 2003 and 2007. No wonder why the ‘Rats want to raise your taxes; you have to cover for their failures to pay them.
– Kate asks whether any of the three major candidates for President have a statement about plans to turn this into the United Commonwealth of Mexico. We know El Jefe Jorge approves of this.
– Jim Hoft has the obligatory bad-wig Leave Barack Alone video. Er, no; all of the Three Stooges provide too many targets to leave this environment.
– With a tip of the hat to Amanda Carpenter, Hawk delivers a near-doubling of Baskin Robbins flavors of Obama’s lies.
– Jon Ham notes it’s bloggers like Bob Owens of Confederate Yankee that are doing the jobs the media used to do. In this case, Owens discovered that the American Hunters and Shooters Association, which endorsed Obama, isn’t exactly supportive of the Second Amendment.
– On the media front, spiritofpublicus has a couple examples of ignorance in the press.
– Speaking of endorsements, American Pundit notes the Peanut Farmer-approved Hamas political party terrorist organization has made theirs. I’m shocked, SHOCKED they would endorse Barack Hussein Obama.
– J. Gravelle has the Obama/Swimmer Photoshop of the day.
– Jim Geraghty sees the same trend that happened in Ohio developing in Pennsylvania. As long as nobody cries “Uncle!” until Denver, we’re golden.
– PJ-Comix does a killer job skewering the DUmmies’ cry of foul after the silver spoon bullies discovered velvet gloves can also slap them upside the head.
– Kevin Fischer answers why Scott Walker took 79% of the vote in Franklin in the Milwaukee County Executive election (and 77%+ in Oak Creek). Somebody might want to clue the ‘Rats in (no seriously, if they’re going to be taking power, they may as well have a clue on what tax policy really means).
– Bruce asks, “What’s wrong with this picture?” Recent public school graduates need not attempt to answer; they’re likely to embarrass themselves about as much as the school district in question.
– Trail–Mix has a double-dose of toon action.
– Michael answers the burning question of each flu season, “Why does every flu epidemic start in Asia?” Of course, it doesn’t explain why it ends in South America.
– Mary Katharine Ham rolls a video on why both the flat-taxers and the fair-taxers hate the tax code, and asks that we all just get along.
– Peter is hurting, mostly because of the last round of Gorebal Warming here in southeast Wisconsin.
– In case you either stumbled directly here or got here on the TownHall version, Shoebox compares Disney World to life.
I don’t know what’s more unbelievable, the fact I remembered Open Thread Thursday 5 weeks in a row (don’t disappoint me now) or I didn’t take a shot at Old Crusty (oops, I guess I just did).
I’m only submitting this so that I’m not the only person with “Ebony and Ivory” stuck in his head all day.
Share my pain…
