Links: Another Top 10 List!

The only thing more annoying than a slow news day is complaining about it. So let’s just toss up some links without mentioning… oh, crap.

• John McCain was in Bucks County today, and the Courier Times‘ J.D. Mullane was on the scene. He writes that McCain appears to be younger than Obama — why, of course! — and that all Republicans don’t believe in global warming: “However, the county Republicans are not crazy about McCain, that is clear. When McCain told them he believes in ‘climate change’ you could have heard a pin drop in the warehouse he was speaking at.” You see, when you put it in quotes, it’s an effective tactic of arguing your point. By “arguing your point,” I mean “make yourself look stupid.” [Courier Times]
