In one of those State of the Union after-debates, Noonan was critical of Gerson for not "articulative" enough writing the speech. Gerson simply said: "I 'am President's voice. President is not my voice".
Carville is saying the Republican party is racist and sexist. His wife is sitting next to him and did not coldcock him.
In Peggy Noonan’s most recent article in the Wall Street Journal, she acknowledges that she separated herself from supporting President Bush in “January 2005.” I remember the nasty article she wrote about his Inaugural Address. After that article, where she sounded so “holier than thou”, I rarely read her again until this morning, when I checked to see just what she wrote on Friday that has caused so much hoopla.
She is a quasi-conservative, who (it seems to me) from a very middle-class background wants to be invited to all the A list parties in NY, DC and various vacation locales.
Secondly, I believe that she would be singing a very different tune, had she been asked to join the President’s speech-writing team.
