Check your ground on the blower motor housing itself. Loose grounds tend to make it act like your describing. Does it do it on all speeds or just on high? If yours does it on all speeds and the ground is tight, the blower motor is probably bad, as you might have wore out bushings in the motor or brushes. [8D]

GREAT NEWS, after many many hours of running down wires and all the dash out, I fixed the problem! A/C control module was not sending message to blower motor, and if it sounds bad it got worse, the price for a new A/C control module is exactly what it sounds like. expensive

Oh, you did not state you had Auto Climate Control. Yeah, blower modules go out frequently, mostly the switching transistor in the module. [8D]
