Video: Did men vote against Hillary because of her nagging voice?
posted at 9:22 pm on January 4, 2008 by Bryan
I’d say that the case is quite convincing, just from listening to the first few seconds of the clip. Lis Wiehl, who does not have a naggy voice, misses the point and dives off into “prejudice against women” nonsense. Lis can squeak with the best of ‘em though, but she’s still not as irritating as Hillary is on her best day.

I thought Obama won over a lot of Democratic women?

Tucker says something like this on his show all the time. Though he occasionally frames it as her voice causing certain things to shrivel up.

Just imagine what Dems would say if Mark Levin ever ran for office.

I love this segment each week on Cavuto!
KBird on January 4, 2008 at 9:31 PM
I can’t believe this is on a major news network!
thejackal on January 4, 2008 at 9:33 PM
I think this is true in one respect, when I hear Cankles speak, I hear every shrill Bra Burning feminst, PETA, Code Pink, Cindy Sheehan 8itch I have ever had to suffer through listening to.
It has nothing to do with my wife, but all the other women in the world that I didn’t (and wouldn’t) marry but have to endure hearing anyway.
conservnut on January 4, 2008 at 9:34 PM
If I were a man, I would. She is fingernails on a chalkboard. Of course, she is making me resent ALL women in politics, and considering repealing the amendment that gave women the vote. Including me.
I am woman. Hear me retreat from this broad. Fast and furious.
CrimsonFisted on January 4, 2008 at 9:39 PM
Man she is a loony leftist, I saw that interview today.
Why did and did not vote for Hillary, let me count the ways .
TheSitRep on January 4, 2008 at 9:41 PM
Rush says she sounds like an ex-wife. She sure sounds like a nag to me.
Zorro on January 4, 2008 at 9:42 PM
I think she sounds more like a female Squidward, from Spongebob Squarepants.
Gottafang on January 4, 2008 at 9:43 PM
They voted against her because they know a frigid, back-stabbing, beeatch when they see one. Why did so many women vote against her though?
thedecider on January 4, 2008 at 9:44 PM
I can’t speak for them but for me:
1. Marxist policies
2. No experience in management
3. Unable to execute the function of Commander-In-Chief
4. Nanny stater
5. No experience in foreign policy making
6. Greed
7. Lust for power
8. Can anyone name any AMERICAN donors to her campaign?
More?

Well, I thought Wiehl had a good point about the 2% vs. 12%, till I remembered that the Iowa caucusing was open and not on a secret ballot. That rather eliminates the impartiality of men who have their wives with them, or who would hear about defections to the male side. Ergo, that difference is meaningless.

I can’t stand listening to Hillary…or Obama. Listening to both of them drives me nuts. Hillary does sound like a nagging bitch and it grates on my nerves. I get sick of listening to Obama real fast too because he reminds me of somebody like Jesse Jackson or Sharpton on one of their preaching rants. If he’d just talk normal it’d be OK, but the second he goes into preacher mode I hit the mute button.
Afterimage on January 4, 2008 at 9:55 PM
Her voice doesn’t grate on me. I don’t think she’s hideous. I guess I remain unblinded by HDS.
Her corruption, socialism, and limited familiarity with the truth, however, still enable me to feel the requisite glee at her Iowa defeat.
Edwards, however, is a much scarier choice. I’d feel better if he were third.
joewm315 on January 4, 2008 at 9:59 PM
Hillary could be the poster girl for Cheaters.
Hey Bill, back at ya. We feel your pain.

It’s like living with a live nine inch nail in a chalkboard house.

Question: Did men vote against Hillary because of her nagging voice?
Answer: Yes.
Rush nails it when he calls her every man’s first, second, and third wife all rolled into one.
That was a very refreshing segment.
Mojave Mark on January 4, 2008 at 10:16 PM
I suppose her policies aren’t another reason though.
Kini on January 4, 2008 at 10:24 PM
before I watch the vid….Lis Weil is the most irritating woman on Fox, and maybe all of TV.
Her 1960′s attitude towards men is disgusting and her views on law are straight from the old green and orange colored kitchen.
All men are the devils helpers (unless they’re DA’s) and all DA’s are gods. Anyone accused of anything is guilty. Period.
I can’t remember a woman that speaks so much narcissistic hate, daily. Even shillary hides it now and then.
shooter on January 4, 2008 at 10:30 PM
You’ll like this then, the other fellow steals the show in this segment!
RushBaby on January 4, 2008 at 10:35 PM
Nah…people just didn’t vote for her because she’s a damned commie.
flipflop on January 4, 2008 at 10:42 PM
Lis Wiehl is a moron. I recall a segment on O’Reilly on night where she was arguing with Megyn Kelly. Kelly was eating her lunch on the legal merits of the case and Lis actually resorted to saying that the law was stupid and should be ignored.
This, coming from a legal “expert”.
As far as Hillary, I don’t care what her voice sounds like. She just sends a cold chill down my spine.

I won’t say that you’re an idiot. But I won’t deny it either.
The Race Card on January 4, 2008 at 11:27 PM
how can that be her mom says she is a nice person
Mojack420 on January 5, 2008 at 12:03 AM
Notice how they never play any Slim Whitman songs at her rallies?
Jim Treacher on January 5, 2008 at 12:28 AM
This is ridiculous. I can’t believe this passes for programming on a news station and, beyond that, I can’t believe that it’s one of the choice bits that you decided to post here. First of all, Lis instantly disproves the point with a statistic… but then again, she must be clearly wrong–after all, Rudov asked cabbies!

Earlier this evening, I heard this annoying but familiar monotone voice making a speech in the next room where my aunt was watching TV. At first I couldn’t quite place the sound and I couldn’t make out the words but the tone seemed to vibrate in my head like the that of a swarm of bees and I said to myself “wtf is that?” Then it ended and I realized what or rather who it was. So in answer to your question: probably.
baldilocks on January 5, 2008 at 1:03 AM
Arrgh! My ears! Help!
That opening montage in that clip was like watching highlights from Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds.”
Captain Scarlet on January 5, 2008 at 4:13 AM
The problem with this thesis is that if it’s true, how did Hillary Clinton ever manage to be elected to the Senate? Do men in the State of New York just have a greater tolerance for nagging women? Not if pop culture is to be believed: it was an NYC guy always saying “One of these days, Alice, one of these days….”
radjah shelduck on January 5, 2008 at 5:32 AM
I think herself has a nice enough speaking voice until she tries to get EMPHATIC. Then she gets screechy and shrill. The only other person who has a more annoying voice is Teddy the K. He bellows, gets shrill and all red in the face. I want to run for my harpoon.
Ellen on January 5, 2008 at 5:45 AM
Not necessarily WIVES… Mothers are probably just as responsible as wives. When I hear Hillary, it reminds me of my MOM, just as much as it does my ex-wife.
Rugged Individual on January 5, 2008 at 5:48 AM
After hearing the Hill in these clips, I feel like starting up a conversation with an intern. Poor BJ.
saved on January 5, 2008 at 7:04 AM
This cuts two ways.
My wife says she loves Obama’s voice, and would be voting for him if not for the sage advice of her brilliant, talented, and handsome husband (something like that.)
JiangxiDad on January 5, 2008 at 7:27 AM
Good point. NY is a one-party state and the metrosexuals and homosexuals rule the roost, right after the women.
Believe me, except in geriatric facilities, Alice (and Ralph) doesn’t live here anymore.
JiangxiDad on January 5, 2008 at 7:30 AM
Obama’s change-factor success over Hillary in Iowa has precedence in America. Historically, blacks got the vote long before women’s sufferage. And no amount of makeup or hushed tones will persuade the home of the brave residents to vote for this parasitical bitch. At least Dukakis’ mate had witty charm. Hillary is a ball and chain, no getting around it. People may be willing to put that burdensome weight on others, but never on themselves. Hillary’s constituency consists of those wealthy/powerful enough to remain untouchable and those who already wear the ball and chain casting the vindictive misery loves company vote.
maverick muse on January 5, 2008 at 8:24 AM
Lis Wheil is married to Mickey Sherman…What does THAT tell you? And…that thing they’re talking about, more married men voting for the nag, those are the ponytailed wire rimmed glasses guys who don’t have an equal say in their sham marriage anyway. If it was legal, the boss(wife)would kick him to the curb and marry her girlfriend. So they did the next best thing.
LtE126 on January 5, 2008 at 8:51 AM
Because she has been cheated on and can’t be trusted.
Niko on January 5, 2008 at 9:28 AM
Bryan, Please put up the video from the speech Hillary gave to the Connecticut Democratic Party annual dinner a few years ago. Rush has played this on occasion and it’s hilarious. Hillary starts screaming: “This administration….” and she gets rolling from there. Hillary reminds me of the bad date from hell. My coworker (who is a liberal democrat no less) says Hillary reminds him of a bad blind date he once had with an assistant prosecutor who spent their one date never once smiling, complaining that he doubleparked, and complaining that he smoked a cigarette in her presence. He says he smoked on the sidewalk but that was too much. I keep asking if he is sure the date was not with Hillary.
Larraby on January 5, 2008 at 10:58 AM
The nagging voice is certainly in the top 10.
RobCon on January 5, 2008 at 11:31 AM
Not the voice. She sends female volunteers to peoples homes where the volunteer asks to speak to the wife. That is a seriously stupid mistake.
They came to my extremely conservative neighborhood (and to my front door, doing this) and it didnt play well.
dogsoldier on January 5, 2008 at 12:32 PM
Likability does play a part and this just adds to her lack of likability.
Rose on January 5, 2008 at 3:00 PM
Cavuto has one of the best shows on Fox anymore…that segment with Ditsy Lis makes my day…seeing her as a prosecutor, no wonder there’s so many plea bargains.
Her Thighness’s voice fits her…hmmmm. No wonder bubba likes cigars.
oldernslower on January 5, 2008 at 3:39 PM
She must seem much the same to unmarried men; nor do I imagine that women very much like her tone.
Kralizec on January 5, 2008 at 4:58 PM
True but she’s teh HOT! I get the impression that she is one of those ladies who think men are not complete and that they need a woman to direct them and instruct them on how behave properly. Yeah she lassoed herself a Beta and now has no clue what men are all about. When Hilldozer speaks, I get the sensation of fingernails running down a chalkboard. The only men who support Hilldozer wear pleated chinos with a tucked in Che t-shirt, Hippiestock sandals with tube socks and tie’s his pony tail with the girl friends scrunchie. He is paying child support for two kids from a previous common law marriage neither of which are his and makes a huge payment on a Lexus that the girl friend drives while he drives her ’89 Celica. In the summer he sleeps on the couch because it’s “just to hot” and in the winter he sleeps on the couch because his feet are “so damn cold”. They have an open relationship which means she sleeps with her best friend from college and her current boyfriend while he stays home and makes sure the dog doesn’t jump on the counter. She get’s jealous when he calls his mother. He has been working at Kinko’s for…gotta go she’s home!

Rush was saying this years ago. Hillary sounds like your ex-wife.
