When Peggy Noonan turned into a ranting pundit rather than a rational writer sculpting any real difference between the two parties, she no long carries brevity. She is at best incompetent and WILLING to be corrupt. There is no other way to see this. The Right Wing politicians are morons and they don't govern. Why pander to this mess? It only confuses the people to believe a national journalist actually has something to say that makes sense. She is an Obamawannbee along with her politicians. Just that simple.

Peggy Noonan, (click here) a prominent Republican pundit at the Wall Street Journal, ran into a little trouble last week trying to discuss health care policy she mistakenly thinks she understands.
Indeed, as Ezra Klein explained yesterday, "Noonan's column is a beautiful example of a writer so intent on criticizing Obamacare that she's missed the fact that the law is doing precisely the thing she wants done. A reasonable reader of Noonan's column would end up loathing 'Obamacare' and hoping for a replacement that looks like, well, Obamacare."
At issue is something called Community First Choice, a new part of Medicaid that expands access to at-home care for the disabled. It's a major breakthrough, which Noonan thinks she doesn't like, but when she fleshed out her concerns, it sounded like Nooan was calling for changes that are already in the law....
This only goes to PROVE the newspapers bought out by power hungry rich men are corrupted by promoting a particular view of the world. The Wall Street Journal is a partisan news rag. I never give them validity.
I think we all knew this would happen, didn't we? We are complaining about the private industry called Koch Industries and the Koch Brothers purchasing newspaper after newspaper. They want control. Wall Street and the Koch Brothers want control. It makes me laugh to actually believe there is freedom of the press anymore.
NOT! And these owners actually believe they are great patriots. Bulloney, they are greedy.
These wealth barons are not trustworthy. They don't deserve the trust of the people. Why bother buying a newspaper when it is corrupted by political leanings of the wealthy? Why do that? Makes no sense.
At least the Boston Globe is local. At least one paper in the USA actually wants to value democracy. If it practices partisan politics it will fail, too.
It doesn't get worse than this. Not for a democracy. The American people are trying to scratch out a living and understand their politics when they have time to spend. It's bad in the USA. Peggy Noonan is a prime example of the madness. She is corrupted and incompetent. When anyone asks the Right Wing what their health care plan is, they simply act like Obamawannabees as if they are the ones with the best ideas. It's is lunacy and the electorate is suppose to make sense of it. Right.
