Washington
It was like "The Canterbury Tales."
That's what it was like last Saturday, in LaGuardia Airport, on the shuttle to Washington packed full of people going to the inauguration of President Obama. A handsome, affluent black woman in first class—fur hat, chic silver jewelry—laughed on a cell phone as a businessman—tall, black, middle aged—hurried down the aisle in black overcoat and Burberry scarf. A young man in slouchy jeans and dark watchman's cap, iPod buds in place, nodded, in coach, to the tune in his head. Two young white men in beige cowboy hats and grey fleece jackets came on board. Where you from? "Montana!" they said in unison. A boy, 10 or so, learning-impaired, sat with his grandmother. Where you from? I asked him. Shyly: "Detroit. Kentucky." Middle-aged and older black women in their proud, broad-brimmed hats sat primly, purses clutched on laps. A young black family all in jumpsuits posed for pictures. An air of great sweetness. The tender way people laugh too loud when they're a little nervous, and excited, and know they're part of something and it's big.
Everyone had a story. It was this young woman's first time on a plane. Two little girls, 8 and 11, with their mother, from West Palm Beach, Fla., had never been to Washington. "We're going to see Mr. Obama," the older girl said, noting the obvious to another dullard adult. I told her I'd met him and he's a very nice man, and her eyes went wide: You can meet him?

How many of these well dressed individuals are living off the Goverment Teat?
She used Reagan as far as she could to advance her career, now she has a new person to betray when it becomes convenient.
Don’t feel bad, I did too. She is really trying to still get a gig. This must be what she has resorted to. Keith Olbermann is probably booking her right now. LOL
Peggy Noonan is dead to me.
I swear, there seem to be an awful lot of people in this country whose minds have turned to mush in the last 100 days. The delusion is strong....
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Yep. She’s rode that horse til it’s dead. WE were her consumers, her buyers. I hope she has all the money she needs because that income stream is bone dry as far as I’m concerned. I will put anything I have of hers out at my next garage sale, FOR FREE.
/s
She uses heavy duty pads:
Spellcheck is your friend (I'm not referring to the first word, but the last).
"The Fool's Tale."
Ms. Noonan: In the off chance that your ego requires that you google your articles and you run across this thread, I do not think that Ronald Reagan would approve of your intellectual bankruptcy and abandonment of his principles so as to go to the right parties.*spit*
Does she still think that she is relevant as a “Republican”?
To Quote Archie Bunker - “A bird that always flies in the fog is called a dingbat.”
I can’t see how any conservative can stand to read this woman, much less post her here. What can you say about her? She’s gone her own way. I even sound over dramatic to myself but I feel betrayed by this woman. I’m not getting over the way she treated Palin.
