A mysterious thing happened in that speech Tuesday night. By the end of it Barack Obama had become president. Every president has a moment when suddenly he becomes what he meant to be, or knows what he is, and those moments aren't always public. Bill Safire thought he saw it with Richard Nixon one day in the new president's private study. Nixon always put a hand towel on the hassock where he put his feet, to protect the fabric, but this time he didn't use the towel, he just put up his feet. As if it were his hassock. And his house.
So with Mr. Obama, about four-fifths of the way through the speech. He was looking from the prompters to the congressmen and senators, and suddenly he was engaging on what seemed a deeper level. His voice took on inflection. He wasn't detached, as if he was wondering how he was doing. He seemed equal to the moment and then, in some new way, in command of it. It happened around here:

Ummm, Peggy .. you DO realize that not only has the accusation upon Obamuh is that "he is a Marxist" (as we warned during the campaigns) but NOW he has PROVEN IT beyond a shadow of a doubt!

Look for Peggy to begin contributing to the Huffington Post soon.
She is so pathetic. I guess she wants to keep getting invites to cocktail parties in Manhattan.

Perfect_Rovian_Storm: “Peggy Noonan looks like the south end of a northbound horse”
Don’t click on Peggy’s page!! Boycott the Vichy Republicans.
O’boso looks scared.
We should pray for her. There is something seriously amiss.
I wonder if she got a tingly feeling up her leg.
Noonan has found a way to seem relevant after years of writing essays in the WSJ no one can quite finish. She is something of a romantic, looking endlessly for a man to fall in love with. She has reduced herself to self-parody.
image is everything for libs
She’s picking up on the moment when the Holy Ghost descended upon him.
Evidently she underwent a big time lobotomy at some point. How else can someone go so wrong?
What on earth has happened to Peggy? Is George Soros holding her mom hostage in a cellar somewhere, or what?

I expect that Peggy and Chris Matthews have simultaneous orgasms when they hear Hussein speak.
Peggy better be sitting on that towel that she mentions - there’s a wet spot on the hassock after Obasm’ing about The One (piss be upon him).
Obama looks like the president...of Italy...in the 1930’s.
Someone should tell this hag to ask wall street how presidential odumbo looks!!!
