Peggy has spent the past two years damning Bush with faint praise. I have paid attention to her writings, and they have become increasingly acid when it comes to the Bush Administration. I don't pretend to understand why she is doing this, but it is obvious as hell to a lot of us.
Well, I am loyal to the President, and I will defend him from attack from all quarters, whether it is Maureen Dowd or Peggy Noonan.
You can remain loyal to Peggy. You are going to finally realize you are mistaken one of these days.
Peggy has been trashing President Bush ( forget "helpful" criticism !) since his first Inaugural Address and lately, has gone over the edge, writing sugar coated, hyperbolic, nasty as sin screeds against him and all of the members of his administration.
