Please recall first that columnist and former Reagan and George H. W. Bush speechwriter Peggy Noonan enthusiastically endorsed Barack Obama for president in 2008.
Now read this, and note that "this" is just the latest in a growing string: "When Americans Saw the Real Obama: Why the Denver debate changed everything"
I'm sorry Peggy, but the real Obama was there all along to anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear,
I was already suspicious, but after that 2008 endorsement, I ceased trusting Peggy Noonan's judgment and, therefore, reading her column as well.
She is of a type, however, and therefore instructive. A beltway bigot. David Brooks is another. More impressed with pedigree and style than substance. Calling themselves conservative, but embarrassed by nothing so much as a conservative who really means it.
Oh well, they usually come around and I suppose we should welcome them when they do.
But I still won't trust her judgment.
