Last night, I had the television on in a back room. It was tuned to some pseudo-documentary about D.B. Cooper, featuring gobs of "re-enactment" footage. Anyway, I left the room for awhile and when I came back, something else was on...I was standing with my back to the TV when I heard the familiar voice of President George W. Bush. I didn't think much of it, until I noticed that his jabbering was far more insane and incomprehensible than usual. I turned and discovered that it wasn't George Bush talking.
It was Charles Manson.
I'm not mentioning this as a criticism on President Bush. My motivation for bringing up the similarity is complete divorced from my attitudes regarding his politics and skills as our nation's Chief Executive. It's just so damn weird that I can't keep it to myself.
That being said, George Bush and Charles Manson have remarkably similar voices and share some mannerisms. Check it out sometime. It's a little more pronounced in relatively recent Manson "appearances" and when the crazy mo-fo isn't too agitated.(Sometimes, he sounds a little more like a cross between Bush and Willie Nelson.)
It appears as if at least two other people have noticed this. Not that I need external validation of my aural opinions or anything, but it's nice to know I'm not alone.
