Do you guys get tired of McCain's constant "My Friend" - "My Friends" shit?

[EV_Ares]

[supernova]

1. God yes!

He sounds so phony when he says it. The delivery is so perfunctory.

[gratefultobelib]

2. No, because I don't listen to him.

[Lucky 13]

27. works everytime!

[MaineDem]

3. Yes indeed! n/t

[WCGreen]

4. Drinking Game....

[1corona4u]

5. I don't watch him, and I'm not sure why anyone would.

[sniffa]

6. Many a time, it sounds like he's saying, "My French"

He gets a bonus if he combines "my friends" with "pow".

[TomInTib]

12. When I hear that, I figure he's been in Cindy's medicine cabinet again. eom

[Liberal_in_LA]

7. Yeah. I posted a slate article about the "my friend" thing a few weeks ago

Slate analyzed by he said 'my friends' so much.

[Ian David]

8. He's been coached to say, "My Friend" instead of "You C-word" n/t

[Bluerthanblue]

9. it is meaningless- like, "ya know"... or "ummm...uh.." more of a

speaking 'tic' than anything - to me.

He's not "my friend" and I find it really irritating, but have come to see it as a speech impediment, like, um, ya know.


:shrug:


(could be he was trying for a Reaganesque "My fellow Americans", and missed...?)

[stuntcat]

10. lol totally

He has a problem with repeating the same stuff over and over.. maybe it's his age though, I'll try to be compassionate and stuff.

[WinkyDink]

11. I don't limit myself.

[Pyrzqxgl]

13. When I was a boy I used to listen to the Border Blaster radio stations

and the term "My Friends" usually meant a laxative commercial ("My Friends, do you suffer from faulty
elimination"). So I guess there's a long tradition of "My Friends" dealing with shit. Only this time it's
shits doing the dealing and it's mostly bullshit.

15. I noticed Cindy showed some cleavage today.....did she ever do that before?

If this is to compete with palin....that's pathetic.

[JeffR]

18. Maybe she's changed her mind about running for Miss Buffalo Chip?

:shrug:

[Jennicut]

21. She's worried about losing her man to the Baracuda

If I was her though I'd be happy to have the old piece of sh*t out of my hair and my life.

[Wickerman]

14. Hey, look he was a POW, in case you didn't know

there is nothing more to add.

except, of course

:sarcasm:

[mitchum]

16. It's a traditional phrase for carny pitchmen and snake oil salesmen

I don't fault him; it's only natural that he would use it

[TheCowsCameHome]

17. It is totally obnoxious.

I am NOT your friend, John, just go away.

[Poiuyt]

19. Ya know, there was a time when for five and a half years he couldn't say "My friends"

[invictus]

20. YES! He is really annoying. n/t

[JohnnyRingo]

22. I would think the campaign would have mentioned it to him by now

I'm also sick of hearing his sidekick pronouncing modern Persia as "eye-rack".

It's spoken as "ear-rock" you snow-bound hillbilly, and before you even get started, we say "It-alian", not "eye-talian", "Mos-ko, with no "cow", and "nuk-lee-er".

Are these repubs all home schooled by illiterate yetis?

[GreenPartyVoter]

23. Irks me as much as all the "Folks!" threads around here

[FrenchieCat]

24. He ain't my friend, that's for sure!

[AlCzervik]

25. Yah, i have enough friends and if there was an opening an invitation would not be extended to McCain

[RedLetterRev]

26. Every time I hear it

I throw one of the dogs' stuffy toys at the TV and holler "I am nacho fren'!"

He sounds like that endless, stupid, bawling car commercial they play in the Triad that starts out in the key of scream: "FRIENDS! With your $3488 trade in..."

Yeah, one dog-lot used-junk salesman is pretty-much like another one and McKook is just one more.

A turd-merchant is a turd-merchant is a turd-merchant.
