Why is Peggy Noonan on Television? [View all]

She was on This Week's panel on Sunday, having appeared on Face The Nation's panel a week earlier.

Why?

Isn't this the woman who felt that Mitt Romney would win, the day before the election? Isn't she the person who said that "President Obama is a loser, and America doesn't like losers"?

Even more than that, have you seen her whenever she gets introduced on one of the TV discussion forums? Upon hearing her name, she raises her head and sniffs, as though bearing the burden of being in the presence of inferiors. Then she proceeds to proffer the most inane opinions imaginable! I am very serious when I say that she reminds me for all the world of my aunt Freida, who would, when faced with a question more complex than how the weather was, take a deep breath, SOLEMNLY PONDER a moment, and then deliver the most platitudinous bullshit I have ever heard.

Noonan should be put into the same assisted-living home as David Brooks, Mark Halperin, Tom Friedman, Dana Milbank, Charlie Rose, Ross Douthat, Maureen Dowd, the entire cast of Politico and all the other hacks.

Okay, I realize this is the second thread my newb ass has started, so I'll be quiet now.
