“But for Mrs. Pelosi it’s a challenge. This is her chamber, all her people are here, and she wants to be looking at John Boehner’s face and Harry Reid’s and see who’s cheering and who’s wearing what.”

HER chamber...HER people...who’s wearing what...sick, sick, sick

Peggy Noonan:

1. Hates Sarah Palin
2. Cares about the Party Circuit
3. Elitist snob who long ago jumped the shark
4. Unworthy of having worked for Ronaldus Maximus
5. Often writes hyperFeminine, maudlin gobbledigook

I ENJOY DISLIKING PEGGY NOONAN

The first Peggy Noonan article I've read in a loooooong time.

Wasn't worth it. She has nothing to say.

Well, it starts out well. I liked that bit about Joe Biden’s shining teeth. But it’s all downhill from there, except for that more or less irrelevant blast from the past, when Reagan said, “Jump.”

FTA They've chosen a phrase for the president's program. They call it the "New Foundation." They sneaked it in rather tentatively, probably not sure it would take off.

Do do a new foundation right, you must remove the old building, clear the rubble, poor a new foundation that is more suited to what you wish to build.

Scary huh?

It has been fun if sickening to see how the media droolers found ways to praise odumbo’s lackluster rant.

I wonder if Obama forgot he was black?

More on that little rascal, Nancy: “...that single receipt makes up just part of the more than $101,000 taxpayers paid for “in-flight services” – including food and liquor, for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trips on Air Force jets over the last two years. That’s almost $1,000 per week.”

Peg, if your friend is looking for an adult in the Oval Office for the next few years, he’s SOL.

Why would I be interested in anything this has-been elitist has to say? I can analyse rings around her and all the other mush mouthed elitists who speak from their ego instead of reality.

The ones that down Palin do it mostly because she went to Idaho State instead of Brwyn Mar or Wellesley, Harvard, etc.That and pretentious speaking is all to them.

I never read Noonan any more. Saccharine and empty words......always.

And when she fell in love with Obama any shred of credibility she had left was gone.

Cross a Freeper once and they’ll never let you forget it. You’re banished for life. Noonan and O’Reilly immediately come to mind. Sometimes it seems like every Freeper has their own personal deal breaker after which negotiation is no longer possible.

Unilaterally rejecting those who tick us off, while ignoring their assets will not bode well for the GOP in 2012. I’m sometimes dismayed at the uninhibited willingness for conservatives to put so many Republicans on their permanent s**t list. Cross enough people off your ‘A’ list and we’ll end up with another John McCain.

President Obama's speech was not a pivot, a lunge or a plunge. It was a little of this and a little of that, a groping toward a place where the president might successfully stand. It was well written and performed with élan.

No, Peggy, you're wrong again. It was a mess of platitudes, cliches, and meaningless rhetoric, delivered in a petulant, peevish, whiney tone.

Hmmm... Peggy Noonan column:

Wait for it... Wait for it...

As the TV cameras panned the chamber, I saw a friendly acquaintance of the president, a Republican who bears him no animus. Why, I asked him later, did the president not move decisively to the political center?

Because he is more "intellectually honest" than that, he said. "I don't think he can do a Bill Clinton pivot, because he's not a pragmatist, he's an ideologue. He's a community organizer. He mixes the discrimination he felt as a young man with the hardship so many feel in this country, and he wants to change it and the way to change that is government programs and not opportunity."

The great issue, this friendly critic added, is debt. The public knows this; Congress and the White House do not. "To me the Republicans are as rotten as the Democrats" in terms of spending.

Yep, there it is. She's nothing if not consistent. What the hell happened to this lady? Is it a menopausal thing?

Peggy Noonan is dead to me. Zero was elected with her help.

Too much boiler-plate Peggy Noonan snooze-prose before she ever gets to the point. Pass.

The president will get some bounce from it, and the bounce will go away.
His bounce is like a lead weight in water. Despite all of the happy, hopeful predictions, it isn't happening.

It seems odd that Peggy Noonan, who went to great lengths to declare her loyalty to Obama about a year and a half ago, is now criticizing him. I guess she sees the tide has turned and now has too switch back.
