In a campaign filled with manufactured controversies, overhyped scandals, and mean-spirited personal attacks, this is without doubt today’s most idiotic lefty brouhaha: TN-SEN: Corker Radio Ad Has Tom-Tom Drums During Mentions Of Ford.

(Hat tip: Allahpundit.)

Listen to the MP3 included on that page (an ad by GOP candidate Bob Corker), and you’ll hear some fairly standard dramatic music, probably from a stock CD of music samples, featuring what sounds like tympani drums.

But to the lefties, these are … racist jungle drums!

It’s obvious, man!

This is why we call them the Nutroots.
