I have always appreciated Peggy Noonan's brilliant gift for writing. I admire her for coming to her senses at some point in her life and walking away from her liberal Democrat roots. Heck, why else would I ask to be put on the "Peggy Ping List" except to read her well-written thoughts and opinions?

I just happen to disagree with her on whether or not President Bush did a good job in his interview grilling on MTP. I think he did an admirable job. He was not just fending off the derogatory interrogation of one man, Tim Russert; he saw in Tim's "aura" the multitude of snarling dogs that make up the majority of the media. What would you have him do, Peggy? Rise to the bait and go all Deanian?

You might like what I think was one of her best and most important essays from November 24, 2000 - "Now We Must Fight For Our Country". She wrote it in the middle of 'The Seven Weeks of Hell' after the 2000 election. It was remarkable, and very much needed for the Bush victory!
