For a less-partisan piece of broadband comedy, check out "This Land" from the offbeat animators at JibJab. Talking heads of Bush and Kerry sling insults at one another while singing to the tune of Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land." Here's a clip.

Bush: "Â… I'm a Texas tiger, you're a liberal wienerÂ…"

Kerry: "Â… I'm an intellectual, you're a stupid dumb-assÂ…"

The parody is a hoot. Bush and Kerry are animated like the talking Saddam Hussein in "South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut." Credit the brothers Spiridellis for bringing some humor into this claws-out election.

I haven't laughed so hard since discovering Strong Bad.
