"Barking moonbat"? The quote you provided from Ms. Noonan is truthful and straightforward: nobody knows how Ms. Meirs will be on the bench. Instead of pointing out why you think that is wrong, you resort to name-calling. Apparently that that is all you have to offer.

It's hard to give Noonan much credibility when she blasted the President for daring to use the word G-D too many times in his inaugural speech (her words)
