Why he might be annoying:

He is obese.
His wardrobe has been described as making him look 'like a cartoon mobster.'
He was a weird half-English, half-American accent.
He keeps peacocks as pets.
He can be rude to those he disagrees with.
He said Al Gore's presidential campaign was like someone 'doing sex after having read a book about how to do it.'
He defends some of the worst excesses of George W. Bush's White House.

John McLaughlin frequently ridicules him about his weight.
His liberal detractors often stoop to fat jokes.
He was a child actor in the 1950's, and appeared on 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents.'
