The picture said it all.
Blind allegiance is scary. I, too, have been criticized for disagreeing with the President. What is amazing is that the point that Noonan worked on his recent campaign and has been/is a central conservative mouthpiece is moot. She, too, has committed the cardinal sin.
I'd wager money even Laura has disagreements with W!
The problem is her complete 180 from what she said immediately after the speech to this column.
It is not 'disagreement' with the President, nor committing some imaginary 'cardinal sin.'
It is that we think her first opinion of the speech was right, and that this revised (for whatever reason) one is wrong.
