The DM is great but for one thing he can't say no. After playing for a few months a friend of ours who hasn't gamed since he left college joined as our 6th member capping the game. We were hesitant to let him in but since it was still within the safe range of 4-6 we thought we could manage but because of this another player who is rather large and angry as well as horibly  obnoxious has assumed he can invite himself. I want to yell at him so bad but the DM is too afraid or too nice, I don't know which, to say no to overloading the game and I fear for the games quality. What am I to do?

Discuss your worries with the rest of your group, and then take a vote. If you vote not to let him join, and he gets mad, you've a few others to back you up. If he does get voted in, maybe it won't ruin the game, and if it does, well that sucks. But the problem with giving people a choice is sometimes they make the wrong choice.
