Peggy ecstatic that the SOTU wasn't "MESSIANIC",as the Inaugural speech was,for starters. I suggest that you reread the article.

Well, it wasn't, was it? So, she got that one right.

She was oh, so wrong on the inaugural speech. But she's a professional speechwriter and entitled to her opinion. Doesn't mean I have to agree with her, though.

Now, she's gone on to praise Bush's SOTU -- deservedly so. And, in this case, I agree with her.

I don't understand what the problem is. Peggy doesn't have to agree with me on every single thing for me to appreciate her work. Heck, my wife doesn't agree with me darn near every day -- but we still get along.

The Inaugural speech was NOT "Messianic at all and she refuses to let go of it.Then,there's her calling the president " little big man" in this article to boot.This isn't just some "new" phase Peggy's in,many of her columns,this entire year and earlier,have smacked of damning with faint praise and outright damning of President Bush's speeches.

I doubt that any two people have ever agreed about everything 100% of the time,but Peggy's been more wrong than right about President Bush for quite a while now and here simpering prose has been unpalatable for far longer than that.
