Someone must’ve buried Peggy Noonan in that old Indian burial ground, out there beyond the Pet Semetary.
> There is continuing national curiosity at and discussion of the mystery of the man—what does he think, what will he do?
Shouldn’t they have asked these questions before the election?
Peggy has morphed into the equivalent of an old bag easily worked up into a frenzy by any run-of-the-mill Elvis impersonator.
Peggy? “It’s Over”.
Peggy is Arianna Huffington without the accent or the chip on her shoulder from the gay husband—two dopes who finally surrendered to their leftist hearts which were always beating down there.
I think it's more like America just realized it bought a lemon.
False Gods bring trouble.
Many have forgotten the 1st Commandment.
If you have anything to say about it, Peggy.
Mr. Obama, on the other hand, has an air of natural restraint, of reserve.
I think the phrase you're looking for, Peggy, is "stark, freezing terror."
His small joke at Nancy Reagan's expense the other day was the sort of joke they make in the leftosphere. The rightosphere has its jokes too. But America doesn't live in the leftosphere or the rightosphere.
Please, don't try to make this a "they ALL do it" moment. Bush never did crap like this. You don't even pick up of the utter bullsht of his "unity" talk followed by chosing Emanuel and then THIS kind of thing? Simply put--are you blind, or just have a mad crush?
Everyone asks whither the Republicans, what should they do first?
This part of the piece is so insincere and rote. Peggy doesn't care what Republicans do, she's just fretting over which dress to wear to the inaugural ball.
Man, I'm gonna have a stroke before he's out of office.
That's because you never get off of the press bus, Peggy. :D
America Throws Long? More like America Throws Up.
*sigh* The rockefeller republicans have gone mad. They voted for Bush thinking he would turn out to be another Reagan and in their disappointment see the Gipper instead in an awkward, arab-american marxist.
Modern media has destroyed the minds of many of our greatest.
I’ve always wondered what the elitist think they know? They sure are full of themselves aren’t they?
America threw long, and America is praying for a dazzling reception. People want him to catch the ball.
Yes, America threw long; they threw not only to a young inexperienced quarter back but to a quarter back that has never played the game before!
What is America do if he fumbles the ball in the end zone and the opposing team recovers the ball and returns it for a touch down?
> America threw long
We’d call that the “Hail Mary Pass” or the “Hospital Pass” in New Zealand Rugby. It almost always ends up with somebody on a stretcher with broken bones. Occasionally — very rarely — it results in a brilliant play that nobody saw coming. When this happens it is an accident, a fluke.
You should not throw “Hail Mary Passes” with your country’s future wellbeing at stake. It’s bad strategy.
Mr. Obama, on the other hand, has an air of natural restraint, of reserve. He’s one cool cat, perhaps even one chilly customer.
Restraint and reserve when he doesn’t have a teleprompter or earpiece.
He’s one arrogant fool.
Quiet the narcissist, too, if you’ve seen in GQ poses for the camera.
America fell for the marketing of the empty suit, aka The One.
I was hoping for a little bit more creativity in her stupidity.
And the Wall Street Journal pays good money for this?
As to the "long ball" bit, please consider this, Ms. Noonan: Senator "Coke-head" Obama has already recited the adhan to the New York Times, calling it the prettiest sound at sunset; how long before he bursts out at a press conference with another rendition?
14 minutes left Peggy...
Crazy,
Over the rainbow, I am crazy,
Bars in the window.
There must have been a door there in the wall
When I came in.
Crazy, over the rainbow she is crazy.
Glenn Beck was drooling all over her and her new book that encourages national suicide by advising conservatives to accept communism gracefully.
I don’t know what’s up with either one of them.
