.....she’s trying to get in tune with the direction of the winds.......
I would argue that the woman who wrote the great Regan speech about the boys of Pointe Du Hoc has been blown and buffeted by the wind of truth. Her change is not necessarily purposeful or deceitful so much as it is forced by the wind.
That is the thrust of the piece. The winds of change are producing a change of view in many.
Noonan can't come up with enough “atta boys” to atone for the mammoth “oh sh*ts” she's pulled, former Reagan speechwriter or not.
She screwed herself with her lust for Soetoro in 2008.
Noonan is a great wordsmith. When given the meat of an idea she can do wonders; it’s when she actually has to come up with the ideas that she runs into trouble. Critical thinking is not one of her strong suits.
