Having called me a swine, you can dispense with the "respectfully." Ah, Andy is faced with a difficult choice here. Finding out that Peggy Noonan agrees with him, should he know change his opinion for hog-callers.
No, I haven't called you a swine. I used a well known colloquialism to make a point. Shall I send pictures? If you think it was empty pablum, you clearly don't get it, won't get it, can't get it, and probably have little stomach for ideals.
