Why doesn't Tweety Matthews ever let his guests finish a sentence?
Does he have hyperactive issues of some sort?

He has all of his Georgetown Cocktail Party friends on now, and he won't let them get a word on edgewise. He has a mouth that runs like diarrhea.

1. Because it's all about Tweety.
The guests are only set decorations.

2. I'll try to be fair to Tweety on this one.
In most cases with political types, it is easy to see when they are reverting back to a script or conventional wisdom. Many of the times Tweety interrupts are when his guests are trying to head back to talking points he will try to stop their train of thought and make them answer a question with an answer that isn't pre-planned.

5. I disagree.
I think he's simply insane.

3. His mother never told him to stop talking when she was feeding him worms too.

4. Finish a sentence -- Hell, sometimes he doesn't let them START a sentence.

Often, he asks a question but keeps on yammering away while the guest waits for a chance to jump in with an answer.

6. I agree.
He is insane and should not be allowed on the streets.
