Hillary cracks up in FOX interview

[NickCole]

Love this. What a great laugh!

From Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace: Senator Hillary Clinton was asked several pointed questions by Chris Wallace. Her responses were punctuated by sharp laughter that she at times struggled to contain.

Watch the CNN video below:

I love that Wallace asked that absurd question with a straight face.

I love that Wallace asked that absurd question with a straight face.

". . .hyper-partisan view of politics. . ." That's RICH!

When did Wallace start to look like that kid in Mad Magazine? What me worry?

Hillary cracks up in FOX interview

perfect description.....

In case anyone missed it: She was laughing at the IRONY of Chris Wallace accusing her and G-dub of being "hyper-partisan." Wallace CREATES partisanship where it otherwise doesn't exist, and then to accuse others of his own sin!?!

Hillary cracks up in FOX interview

perfect description.....

Yea I changed it from Huffington's more drab "Hillary cracks up throughout Fox interview" -- figured I'd give right wing nutbags something to smile at.

 

[NickCole]

Was she high?

No.

Are you?

 

[NickCole]

This isn't about me... and do you have video of me to justify this assertion?

I didn't make an assertion.

I asked a question. And it made as much sense as yours about the Senator. She seemed fully sober, as do you.

The video of her should have been embarassing for her, mainly because it "lacks context", as lance would claim.

Anybody who's been following politics the past 15 years understands the context. Or even the past 15 months.

If you don't hear BushRepublicans shriek, "Clinton!" every time they're backed against the wall and want to stir up partisan sentiment, you're not listening.

The video was not remotely flattering to her.

I thought she looked great and sounded great. I also think laughing at those nincompoops is a great response.

^Answering the question instead of laughing like a lunatic might have been a nice approach. Again, too much to ask, I suppose.

 

[NickCole]

Well, considering I lack an ideological bias, I fail to find it amusing on that alone.

One needn't have an ideological bias to get what was funny about Wallace's deadpan question; only an informed understanding of what's been happening in American politics the past decade.

 

[NickCole]

Uh, her response only gives credence to his question...

Nah ......

 

[JayHawk]

Cackle is more apt a description.

 

[Spellbound]

Was she high?

Nah. I think she was a little tipsy. Good thing she's over 21. WAY over 21.

 

[NickCole]

Wow, that's abruptly ineffective.

Just because it didn't give you what you wanted doesn't make it ineffective.

It effectively conveyed my response.

All I wanted was for you to stand by why this is a good thing for her. It seems rather... pathetic of her, in light of her response to the question. She only embraced the 'hyper-partisan' label, which played well into the trollish-looking guy's hands.

She explained it.

I explained it in this thread.

Clearly and concisely.

If you don't get it, you don't get it.

Was she high?

Points if she was! (The thought did cross my mind, actually. Perhaps she finally taught Bill how to inhale?)

I want to see the whole "interview," but it looks to me like she handled Chris-I-wanna-commit-my-daddy-Wallace & Faux News perfectly.

Two thumbs up!

As my roommate would say, "Jesustittyfuckin!"

Nick & ICO, either get a room or let it go. Neither of you are moving this discussion forward.


...although I do wonder to where it might go forward....

The question was absurd, it is like FOX complaining that other news outlets are biased. The Clinton response was absolutely right on, why should she dignify such a ridiculous question with a serious answer? Her response was not unlike the laughter that greeted Ahmadinejad when he said that there was no homosexuality in Iran.

Of course, to appreciate Clinton's response, one has to have a sense of humour in the first place and maybe the waitress that serves the back table at Applebees doesn't allow any laughter from that small circle of believers.

What did strike as funny on Sunday was the Russert interview of Clinton. Russert did not ask one new question or one original question, he just asked all the same asked and answered questions that the Clinton enemies have circulating for the past several months. Any small time news hack could have dredged up these same questions and the answers from a quick perusal of the web.

Russert was simply trying to please the conservative audience while appearing to ask "tough" questions. At the end of the interview Russert made none of his usual football references or family references to lighten the tone, but just stared grimly into the camera as if he had just interviewed the Devil himself.

How do people take that news whore seriously?

So is this another JUB rule?

We can't bait and we can't make personal attacks, fine.

And now we can't post unless we're "moving this discussion forward"?

You guys are getting ridiculous.
