    Twitter frowns on Joe Biden's laugh

    By PATRICK GAVIN | 10/11/12 9:56 PM EDT Updated: 10/11/12 10:28 PM EDT

    Vice President Joe Biden and Rep. Paul Ryan were the two candidates on stage at Thursday’s vice presidential debate, but a third character emerged: Joe Biden’s laugh, which didn’t escape the notice of tweeting politicos. (And led, of course, to at least three satirical Twitter accounts: Laughing Joe Biden, Biden Smirk, and yet another Laughing Joe Biden.)

    Weekly Standard’s Mark Hemingway: “Joe Biden’s laughing through talking about Iran sanctions?”

    TIME’s Michael Scherer: “Not sure debate cameras have been light tested for Biden’s teeth. Best to watch with sunglasses.”

    Washington Examiner’s Philip Klein: “Biden’s strategy seems to be to laugh at Ryan constantly. Will it work to infantalize Ryan, or backfire like Gore sighing?”

    NBC’s David Gregory: “Biden’s smile is out of control.”

    BuzzFeed’s Ben Smith: “So did Biden practice laughing at Ryan???”

    ABC’s Rick Klein: “Biden on verge of breaking down in laughter when Ryan talks.”

    Former Eric Cantor staffer Brad Dayspring: “Joe Biden needs to realize this isn’t a Senate Foreign Relations Hearing. His laughter and condescending attitude is a disaster.”

    Radio host Neal Boortz: “Looking like Biden’s gameplan is to laugh his way through this.”

    Townhall.com’s Guy Benson: “Will Biden laugh his ass off at the terrible economy, too?”

    (See also: Complete coverage of the VP debate)

    MSNBC’s S.E. Cupp: “Biden needs to laugh a little less through the Libya, Middle East, nuclear Iran segment.”

    Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza: “Ok. I have decided. I find the Biden smile slightly unsettling.”

    (Also on POLITICO: 5 things to watch in VP debate)

    PBS’ Jeff Greenfield: “Biden has always had a smile that at times is really, really inappropriate.”

    Washington Examiner’s Paul Bedard: “Can’t tell yet if Biden’s smirking, laughs, eye-rolling, head shaking, works for him or not against the oh-so-young looking eager Ryan.”

    Former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer: “Biden is at risk of having his laugh come across like Gore’s sighs. He should knock it off.”

    The New York Times’ Ashley Parker: “Biden’s grin is Chesire Cat caliber.”

    Republican strategist Ron Bonjean: “Biden laughing does not come off with the intended effect. It is actually hurting him. Looks very condescending.”

    Movie critic Roger Ebert: “Joe! Stop smiling and laughing!”

    Washington Times’ Emily Miller: “Biden laughing when he disagrees with Ryan is so annoying. Like a child in time out.”

    Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin: “Biden’s laughing is losing the debate- obnoxious”

    Comedy Central’s Indecision: “If this keeps up much longer, Joe Biden’s going to sprain his laugh muscles.”

    And now for the truth from ET's only voice of reason:


    Dear Paul Ryan: We don't have a revenue problem.
    We have a spending problem.

    Dear Joe Biden: We don't have a revenue problem.
    We have a spending problem.

    Both of you only confused the masses.
    I would like for you to both understand that we need to scrap the evil IRS and replace our current system with a consumption tax, with the elimination of the capital gains tax nonsense.

    Now...

    Joe Biden:
    Biden spanked that boy.
    Better prepared than Ryan.
    Was too animated with the giant frequent grin.
    A bit rude toward Ryan, in general.
    Didn't show up drunk.


    Paul Ryan:
    Got spanked by that old man.
    Just not tough enough.
    Was Paul extremely thirsty?


    Moderator: Poor.


    I am glad that Joe Biden, Paul Ryan, and I do actually agree on one important issue: Abortion is murder, but I am the only one of the three of us with the guts to call it exactly what it is.

    You really think Obama can pull off that smile and snobbish behavior ?
    I think he is more courteous than that.

    Great posts. I think the story of the debate will be Biden's demeanor. It was disgraceful. It seems everyone is talking about it. This is awful for ol' Joe.

    I wonder if Obama was yelling at the TV for Joe to quit laughing.

    Plus, there are some problems with a few of Biden's facts.

  10. He won the debate on the facts and exposing the failings of the Romney Ryan ticket. He did this in spite of the rude smirking and laughing.
