Politico called Clinton's Sunday-show laugh "calculated" and a "cackle," but Giuliani's laugh "good-natured{}"

Politico called Clinton's Sunday-show laugh "calculated" and a "cackle," but Giuliani's laugh "good-natured{}"
Summary: Reporting on Rudy Giuliani's December 9 appearance on Meet the Press, the Politico's Jonathan Martin asserted in a blog post that Giuliani "seemed to even good-naturedly mock and welcome {Tim} Russert's line of questions when the matter of" his business ventures' clients came up." By contrast, in Politico articles about Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's September 23 appearances on all five Sunday talk shows, Mike Allen and John F. Harris wrote that Clinton's laugh "sounded like it was programmed by computer," and Ben Smith described Clinton's laugh as a "cackle."

2. Well where did Hillary's laugh go? Nothing funny anymore?
Gee, her laugh WAS a calculating cackle and that's why people called it that.

3. Exactly.
Though Giuliani's laugh is definitely creepier.

4. I would call it Giuliani's "I don't know what the fuck to say" laugh...
The laugh and bulging bug eyes were quite telling, I thought. There was certainly nothing funny about the questions Timmy asked.

5. Ghouliani looked and acted nuts during Timmy's interview.
I've never seen anyone laugh more inappropriately.

6. What if they were to switch laughs?
I say the ex-Clinton laugh would still garner the most attention.

7. What about ...
that supercreepy little "heh-heh" that Dumbya throws in at the most inappropriate moments in his "speeches".

I'm an old man... seen combat... but that just makes me chilly in the willy.

9. Or when he was plugging his war with Iraq
And he used to say "rape rooms" and then smirk. Creepy.

I'm reading the Vanity Fair article about Guiliani. The man is criminal to the bone.

12. Why do I have to keep asking people why they choose to cite fucking 'Politico'?
If some are going post bullshit, can we at least limit it to Drudge?
