Mild puzzlement

We've been screening calls through the answering machine, this political season.  And just got one that has me scratching my head.

Very aggressive, harsh voice.  The message was the basic Obama = terrorist thing, pounding on the Ayers connection.  But the volume and tone of voice weren't professional-actor grade, the "this message authorized and paid" tag was in the same voice/tone, and other things just seemed a bit off and over-the-top.

Almost suspect a Joe Job . . .

Was it this one?

Yeah, apparently it's all over the place.

That's the message, but not the voice. Maybe our version had the computer playback volume set too high? Overdriving the audio?

Hey, I'm half-deaf, and the message was too loud for *me* . . .
