Aside from all his many faults, I COULD NOT BEAR TO LISTEN TO HIS *VOICE* FOR 4 YEARS
Edited on Sat Aug-16-08 11:49 PM by BigBearJohn
It is such a fucking DRONE.

Does his voice drive anybody else crazy?

Revised to add:

I'VE GOT IT!


He reminds me of someone at a funeral
giving the euology... head bowed...
"yes.. he was a great man... we will
always remember him. When I was a little
boy he gave me my first bicycle."

2. Yes. I put my hands over my ears and yell LA LA LA LA LA LA just to stop with the
drone.

I guess being on his staff and doing that is out of the question, eh??

5. Everyone I know hates it. At least Dimson provides savage amusement.
Hospital Johnny is like watching paint dry.

6. It drives me to dangerous levels.
He has the most thin, whiny, annoying, nasally, repulsive voice I've ever heard. I cannot be within 50 feet of a gun when he speaks. Or a rope. Or a high window. Or an oncoming train. It's that bad. I get the same irrationality with heights, and want to jump just to make it end.

23. I thought I was alone
in this urge. Last night, dh insisted I turn the TV off when mcCain came on because we were both covering our ears. Bush always makes me angry and dubious when he speaks, when I'm not laughing out loud -- but McCain is just soooo nails down a chalk board. His voice may have been the final straw when he was a POW. I'm sure they asked him to leave early just to shut him the f*ck up.

what a cu*t.

7. I wonder if it's registering with some wishy-washy Republicans?
McCain is basically Bush without a personality. That can't be good.

18. That "my friends" shit is like
Edited on Sun Aug-17-08 12:46 AM by LibDemAlways
fingernails on a blackboard. He reminds me of a smarmy, insincere, completely phony used car salesman trying to be "buddy buddy" as he desperately attempts to con me into buying a lemon. I hope enough voters are smart enough to see right through it and reject it outright. Having to put up with 4 more years of yet another Constitution-shredding warmongering asshole would be too much to take.

21. I was saying at the time "one more 'my friends'" and I'm taking a chainsaw to the TV
Reminds me of a used car salesman or someone who's read "How to win friends and influence people" too many times.

12. From this point forward I will always refer to McCain as the "Funeral Director"
Now if I could just convince SwampRat to
do a graphic of him as one.

It's either that or the Crypt Master from
"Tales of the Crypt."

14. I always used to be able to tune it out...
Then he did that speech in front of a green backdrop where every other phrase was, "And that's not change we can believe in, my friends," and then flashed his creepy grin.

16. I agree!
His voice makes me clench my teeth. I absolutely can not stand hearing him say, "MY FRIENDS".

He sure as hell is not, my friend!
