Peggy Noonan devastated with *'s speech, so what does she do? Bash Nancy's clothes

[CatWoman]

When Nancy Pelosi showed up at the White House Wednesday to talk with the president it was obvious she'd spent a lot of time thinking about . . . what to wear. She wrapped herself in a rich red shawl. Dick Morris said it looked like a straitjacket. I thought she looked like a particularly colorful mummy. She complained that the president had not asked for her input as he put together his plan. He should have. But what would she have brought to the table if she'd been asked to it? It is still--still!--unclear.

1. I thought that Pashima Shawl Speaker Pelosi was wearing looked great!

and it was obviously cold that day

typical misogynistic crap (even from other women)

[CatWoman]

2. I did too. I loved it.

as a matter of fact, I ordered one based on the one Nancy was wearing:

6. It was freezing cold. I thought she looked fantastic. Nooner is batshit crazy.

She should stick to have sexual fantasies about Ronald Reagan's feet.

3. Drop Peggy Noonan over Iraq.

13. Do you hate our troops?

Do you hate the Iraq people? Why would you want to subject them to the Bull Goose Loony Horror that is Peggy Noonan? ;-)

4. I know you don't, but how many times have people here on DU

commented (unfavorably) on Laura's clothing?

[bobbolink]

8. Exactly what I was thinking.

Sauce-goose, sauce-gander.

[CatWoman]

11. 1. fuck Laura.

2. Laura isn't in Congress, and has nothing to do with the debate about the Iraq War.

3. Nancy is on Mr. Blackwell's "best dressed list".

4. Fuck Laura.

[Raine]

17. Yeah but Laura's

clothes are ugly and she looks AWFUL and Pelosi looks TERRIFIC.

5. The vapid twit

has always been a fashion fetishist. I do mean fetishist:

I first saw President Reagan as a foot, highly polished brown cordovan wagging merrily on a hassock. I spied it through the door. It was a beautiful foot, sleek. Such casual elegance and clean lines! But not a big foot, not formidable, maybe a little ...frail. I imagined cradling it in my arms, protecting it from unsmooth roads.

12. "I imagined cradling it in my arms...."

Ew.

7. Good review of the chimp's speech...

Can't stand Noonan, but she nailed that one.

[madrchsod]

9. as one of the resident fashion critics i say she looked---

hot! she dressed tastefully and more important dressed to project her image...not like some other woman in position of power.

oh yes peggy`s jealous she won`t be on the a list anymore

10. Ms. Piggy seems to have an overdeveloped hatred for Democrats. (nt)

[Rosemary2205]

14. No comment about what the MEN were wearing?

Dangit. My husband needs a new suit. I was hoping Noonan would oblige me with a fashion comment for the men too. How disappointing!!!111!!

[charlie]

15. I was wondering that myself

In a sea of gray suits and PE coach haircuts, she pounces on the only splash of verve in the room.

[Raine]

16. Pelosi looked TERRIFIC

I noticed her outfit right away.:bounce: I would LOVE to have one just like it! :D
