This is the point in the whole dungheap. This is a call for the Versailles on the Potomac ruling class to circle the wagons and preserve their privileged positions. Vichy Republicans and Democrat Fauxsheviks working together to preserve the status quo.

Absolutely right.

This is just a thinly veiled "the Conservatives need to compromise" article full of typical noonancompoop puffery.

Anyone who liked Obama in 2008 has lost my respect, including Ms. Noonan. Logic and reason have departed from her environment. And throw in Kathleen Parker into that dustbin also.

Noonan? Whose heart was all a-flutter, with lovey-dovey enchantment over Barack a few short months ago?

She’s an elitist POS. No surprise she hates Palin. Peggy, just grab one of your Manhattan cocktails and proceed to Hell where you belong.

No, a “nincompoop” is ANYONE who thought that a guy with NO real-world experience who attended an antiWhite/antiAmerican/antiSemitic church for 20 years “might” make a good President...

Anyone that supported 0baMao for even a minute has no room to call anyone a nincompoop. That’s like questioning your parent’s driving skills after causing a fatal accident in a carnival bumper car.

GMTA! I immediately thought of Norma Desmond and Sunset Strip when I read the title of this thread.

Noonan supported Obama. So who is the biggest nicompoop now, Peggy?

Peggy Noonan is an arrogant, elitist, inside the beltway TWIT.

Please, please, please! Ms Noonan was in her day a great speechwriter, she did more for Reagan than Reagan’s idiot staff or kids did. Too bad she has fallen and can’t get up. This is this first time I have any sympathy for anyone in the political arena. It’s really unfortunate that she expressed herself in this way. Please be kind to her. Let us remember her as a National Treasure.

Noonan is a snob and I’m no fan of hers, but I do think Palin would get crushed in the general if she got the GOP nomination in 2012.

Wow, what a harpy woman! Lighten up Peg, remember this: “My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you today that I’ve signed legislation...that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in 5 minutes.”

Spoken by a great man with a wonderful sense of humor. That was an endearing part of his personality.

Must everything be serious? Why rip on Sarah this way?

For someone who had so much going for her, Peggy Noonan really has disappointed. It would be one thing to criticize Palin's ideas or style, but to suggest that she is some sort of moron says quite a bit more about the suggestor than it does about Palin.

ML/NJ

Noonan is no longer relevant. She's joined the choir invisible. She is a dead parrot, she's pinin’ for the fjords...

Peggie Noonan needed Ronald Reagan. As long as she transmitted his vision in inspired prose, she was the best of the best. But Ronald Reagan did not need Peggie Noonan. Her once lofty writing style now serves a second rate intellect—her own.

I was amazed at Noonan calling Reagan “an artist.” What poppycock - to use a Noonan word along with “ninconpoop” and “pshaw.” Reagan was many, many things but he was NOT an artist. He was a good, solid working film actor and a political genuis. Peggy is a tired old broad with a really stale act.
