Tweety's having trouble keeping his "Cheenies" and "Chainees" straight. |
|
Maybe he should drop the whole thing and go with the flow.

9. So. Why does he have to make a big production out of it. No one cares! It is almost as if |
|
he needs to remind himself that he is correct.
It is annoying as all get out.

2. Dick Cheney's name is correctly pronounced "Cheeney" |
|

Easy to remember, it rhymes with wienie and meanie.
I actually saw him asked this question once. He identified the correct pronunciation, but said people had altered it over the years (why, I don't know).
Thom Hartmann talks about this sometimes - he always pronounces it "Cheeney".

3. I've got big...BIG! news for Tweety: |
|
I have done extensive research and have found that instead of the traditional pronunciation of the name "Matthews" as "Maa-thues" with the accent on the first syllable, the REAL pronunciation is...
---drum-roll---
"MATCHOO"
as in the rhyme for a sneeze. This would explain the flecks of saliva which emanate from his mouth nightly, since the genetic pressure of his phenotype is clear to all. His former "boss" Tip O'Neill knew this when he hired him as an assistant (read: coffee-gofer) and his former boss Jimmy Carter knew this when he hired him as a speech writer (read: coffee-gofer) and his present boss at MSNBC knew that when he hired him as an on-air talent (read: hypersalivating shithead cum Cheeney "pronunciator"). In fact, I guarantee you that Matchoo's Wikipedia entry after he's 'gone' will state the fact that his greatest contribution to society was his elocution lessons concerning the pronunciation of former VP Cheney's name.

Since my last name has been butchered for years. I'm sure Obama wouldn't want people calling him O-BAM-A.
