Peggy Noonan reminds me of my aunt Wanda

[ImNotTed]

Wanda always spoke with great profundity, in a very considered manner. You could see on her face the measured deliberation that went into the formation of her opinions.

Too bad the poor woman was senile as fuck and never said anything even remotely relevant to the topic at hand.

[liberal N proud]

1. Noonan's theory is that if you speak profoundly it means you know what you are talking about

Doesn't change the fact that she has nothing of value to say.

[nenagh]

2. I thought she lost the thread of the discussion..

a few times.. or did Joe just barge in...

Quickly changed the channel..

[JAnthony]

3. Did your aunt vote Republican, too?

I would change the channel anytime I see Joe and Peggy together, two non tea bagging ego-maniacal Republican nuts together at the same time can be very dangerous and influential.

[malaise]

4. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaah hahahahaha

but was Aunt Wanda in love with the sound of her own voice? :rofl:

[Atman]

5. "Too bad the poor woman was senile as fuck..."

"... and never said anything even remotely relevant to the topic at hand."

Are we talking about Wanda or Peggy here?

[malaise]

6. Hahahahahaha

:rofl:

7. I love how she closes her eyes like the sound of her own voice is caressing her body.

[JoePhilly]

11. I think she scrunches up her face as if some one farted.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

8. She's a pompous windbag.

She and Maureen Dowd are in love with their own voices.

[Atman]

9. What does Peggy DO anyway?

I mean...does she have a job? She obviously has lots of money, which is pretty much all it takes to be called a "pundit" these days. But what are her bona fides? Why is she using up our oxygen?

14. She was a republican speechwriter. She dreamt up Reagan's "Shining City on a Hill" line.

[JoePhilly]

10. She's the female George Will ... I love it when those 2 are on the same panel

Its great fun to watch them try to out pompous each other.

[Atman]

12. Electric bolts shoot between the tips of their noses, like one of those science exhibits.

They stare down their noses at each other and it creates a huge surge of electricity. I hear Peggy was in a neck brace for much of the winter after she twisted her neck trying to out nose-stare Will.

13. It is funny you said that. I woke up to Morning Joe. (I'm in Mountain Time)

And as I was just waking up and beginning to listen, I realized that... these people were talking but not saying anything. It was just blather. I'm glad I'm not alone.

[RandomThoughts]

16. That is a huge step to be able to see that.

That is really huge, the reason I think you realize that, is you are actually thinking about what they are saying, with relevance and perspective, and what they say becomes really small when in perspective.

If you are asleep or coasting, you don't think about it, and just let it program you.

There was a comment someone made about soap operas, about how some would spend hours every day watching them, when they could be learning.



Although there are things to learn from in many places.

15. K&R..

17. I can't stand that snotty condescending, fake thoughtful

attitude of her's, she makes me :puke:
