I don't as a rule comment much on Noonan, whom the Good Roger Ailes calls Pegaloon...for good reason I might add. But today, she crossed a line that puts her into the Stratosphere of Hackery. The Good and Wholesome Roger Ailes busts her in his blog today, so I went to check it out, lazy Friday, Long weekend...you know, like that. What do I find? Peggy committing something which might be best termed Noonalingus...the insertion of her tongue in well...ah, hell it's not a family blog...you know where. So what's the Noonalingus? Check it out:

It has to do with Mr. Bush's re-election prospects and a worry I have. History has been too dramatic the past 3 1/2 years. It has been too exciting. Economic recession, 9/11, war, Afghanistan, Iraq, fighting with Europe. fighting with the U.N., boys going off to fight, Pat Tillman, beheadings. It has been so exciting.

Here is my fear: that the American people, liking and respecting President Bush, and knowing he's a straight shooter with guts, will still feel a great temptation to turn to the boring and disingenuous John Kerry. He'll never do anything exciting. He doesn't have the guts to be exciting.

From John Kerry's Silver Star Citation:

..."With utter disregard for his own safety and the enemy rockets," the citation says, Kerry "again ordered a charge on the enemy, beached his boat only 10 feet from the Viet Cong rocket position and personally led a landing party ashore in pursuit of the enemy . . . The extraordinary daring and personal courage of Lt. Kerry in attacking a numerically superior force in the face of intense fire were responsible for the highly successful mission."

From his Officer Efficiency Report of 2 May 1973:

"Lt. Bush has not been observed at this unit during the period of report. A civilian occupation made it necessary for him to move to Montgomery, Alabama. He cleared this base 15 May 1972 and has been performing equivalent training in a non flying status with the 187 Tac Recon Gp, Dannelly ANG Base, Alabama."

I guess in a guts for guts match up, John Kerry is not a very exciting guy, but then he really doesn't have to be does he? He's already got the T-shirt, medals and history. I wonder if Preznit All Gutz could take Noon-a-Loon to the Vietnam Memorial and point out the name of one person he knew who served his country and died in Southeast Asia.

I'll be waiting for an answer to that one. It's a gut thing you know.
