Am I the only one who thinks Lieberman acts and sounds like Eeyore?

[Meldread]

Growing up, I used to watch the Winnie the Pooh cartoons - they were great. I didn't really notice this about Lieberman until after John Stewart started making fun of him... and then it hit me! The guy sounds and acts just like Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh!

When I told my mother we both burst out laughing and she agreed that, after I mentioned it that he does in fact remind her of Eeyore.

I'm serious. Watch him. Listen to him. See if you see it, and I swear that you'll never be able to listen to him speak again without at least a little giggle.

Ever since that day that's been our little nickname for him. Nothing is more hilarious than saying, "Look it's Eeyore!" or "Did you hear what Eeyore said?"

1. I think he sounds just like the father from the TV show ALF.

In fact, Marc Maron had a contest on Morning Sedition once where he played clips of Lieberman and clips of the dad from ALF, and he challenged callers to tell who was who. NOT one caller got one of the clips right. They were absolutely impossible to tell apart.

5. I think he sounds like Snagglepuss...

especially when he says "Exit, kowtowing all the way, stage right!"

6. Yep. Sure do.

I thought he had what we used to refer to as "Eeyore-itis" back in 2000, when I had favorable feelings about him.

8. More like Hardy Harr Harr (friend of Lippy the Lion) - "Ooh, me, ...

ooh my..." annoying, whiny, pathetic voice.
