"Ahmadinejad - I call him Ahmad-in-a-head - I think he's a Hitler type of person," Ohio Republican Senator George Voinovich said during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing.

"He has made it clear that he wants to destroy Israel. He has made it clear he doesn't believe in the Holocaust. He's a, he's a - we all know what he is," the senator added.

1. ARGH. Godwin. Whack on head.

(The "Ah'm-mad-in-the-head" pun, on the other hand, is borderline cute.)

15. I don't understand

Is that supposed to be funny? Does that mean something that I just don't get? Cause I don't see anything that even an idiot could find funny.

4. Did anyone ever see or here this speech where Ahmadinejad

called for Israel to be destroyed. Just wondering.

5. We're A Nation Of Morons....

Being Led by MORONS.

Oh, and on the other side of the world we have....more MORONS, leading other countries as well.

Basically as a human race we're all Fucked, and probably deserve to be. If there is a God, he's likely confused as to how we could screw ourselves up so badly.

23. The conduct is unbefitting of a statesman.

certainly

7. I'm reminded of Jr. High School...

Where we used to do stupid things with each other's names. Have I said how much I DETEST our fucking Congress today? We currently have the worst Congress in American history.

12. I agree...

...it's a total abomination.

They represent US, and they are making US look like petulant, frat boys.

[John Gauger]

16. We do, however

have John Conyers, Jr. That's a bright spot.

8. That 's how I learned to remember and pronounce his name.

Might not have been nice, but I really wanted to know how to say his name. Am mad in da head or Am ad in da jad...Is that correct? Ama di nijad. whew People have always had a hard time pronouncing my last name so, eh. :)

10. I thought it was....

a ma DIN a jad.

[John Gauger]

17. It's actually

Ahmad-i-nejad. Like Mosly-Braun, a hyphenated name. That's the way the Iranian media spells it.

[Skarbrowe]

24. I've heard announcers use several pronunciations. It's like Abu Ghraib.

That one was all over the place pronunciation wise. As long as I'm close with Ama di ni jad..oops. I'll try again later.

9. There's nothing quite like a grown man...

...acting like a grade-school bully, is there?

Hello UN members! When you turn on your hotel television sets tonight, you'll
be treated to the fabulous maturity of our stellar, elected leaders. Bask
in their brilliance!

Can we hide our heads in shame now...or should we wait until they've all spoken?

[bbernardini]

11. I believe Harry Shearer calls him "Ahm-a-dinna-jacket." nt

[John Gauger]

13. He's thinks he's Hitler?

Hitler didn't want to destroy Israel, and he certainly beleived in the Holocaust. Moran.

14. Didn't Randi Rhodes also use this nickname?

[catmandu57]

18. His reclaimation didn't take did it?

When he stood up against bolton's nomination I thought there was hope for the man, now....

[Jed Dilligan]

19. I just can't help pronouncing it

Ah'ma-do-a-jihad

21. Voinovich is senile. You should have known him in his day when he was

a youthful and impressive politician. It is sad to see him as he is today when I can remember him when he actually represented the working class and didn't follow the party agenda.

[BentleyJD]

22. Voinovich

never cared for the little people or average joe in Ohio.
Forced a lot of people out of work at Sky Chefs when he let Marriot linr hid pocket
I never voted for him.
