How very charming, the poison typewriter of the old battleaxe that is Peggy Noonan.
She's 68 years old, and still clinging to the apex of her career that was Reagan's Challenger explosion speech.
Daughter of an Irish merchant seaman, grew up in the Bronx, very Catholic
Certainly has the Irish gift of gab
Her condescension and superiority won her a Pulitzer in 2017
She's behind GHWB's "thousand points of light" and "kinder, gentler nation" (both of which actually meant precisely nothing)
Also came up with "read my lips: no new taxes", which GHWB's subsequently broke, and was one of the reasons he lost to Grifter Clinton in 1992.
There is zero reason to care about Peggy Noonan's trite prose. It didn't mean much in her heyday, and it means even less today.
