I certainly do not think that the left has to rely on conservative critics of the President. However, they relish the opportunity to do so if for no other reason than to show a division within our ranks. Free expression is appropriate when warranted. I don't think that PN thought seriously enough about the consequences of her column before she filed it with her editor.

That may be true. Her timing is certainly "pissing in the inaugural punch bowl." She could have waited a week or two. I hear you.
