She was living a nightmare. Sister Peggy Noonan of the Order of the Methaqualone Blackout had only meant to make a short trip down the island of Manhattan to marvel at the new Freedom Tower and ponder the hardy spirit of America. But her cab found itself at a complete standstill, trapped in a jam caused by thousands of the hoi polloi out protesting a black man’s choking death at the hands of an officer of the esteemed NYPD. Moved by their spirit, she threw her cabbie several of the Liberty dollar coins in her change purse and exited the vehicle, determined to walk among the people and commune with their spirits.
It's easy to remember the difference- hoi polloi is that bland, tasteless gruel that Hawaiians make from tree bark and volcanic ash, then feed to the tourists. A hoity-toity is one of those weird snowflake looking drink coaster things old people like Peggy put on their furniture to keep it from being scratched by her illegal alien housekeeper when she cleans weekly, or to prevent cup rings when her ungrateful children bring those awful little monster grandchildren by for their semi annual trip to see grandma.
Webb's only pertinent qualification in Peggy's estimation is that he was, for a little while, Saint Ronnie of Santa Barbara's Navy secretary. In real life he is a naked opportunist with no real principles except advancing his own station in life. He'd run on the Surrealist Light People's Party ticket if he thought he could win.

She&#039;s right! The Demoncrats need leaders who are like Louis Gohmert, Mitch McConnell, Ben Carson, Donald Trump, Rush Limbaugh, Michele Bachmann. Maybe they can get someone like that <a href="http:\/\/www.dailykos.com\/story\/2013\/03\/14\/1194062\/-10-reasons-why-Ronald-Reagan-would-be-persona-non-grata-at-CPAC-2013#nine" target="_blank">abortion-legalizing</a>, <a href="http:\/\/www.washingtonmonthly.com\/political-animal\/2011_09\/the_biggest_tax_hike_in_modern032511.php" target="_blank">tax raising</a>, <a href="http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Immigration_Reform_and_Control_Act_of_1986" target="_blank">amnesty-granting</a>, <a href="http:\/\/www.salon.com\/2011\/02\/04\/busby_iran_contra\/" target="_blank">lawless</a> Ronald Reagan

Ah, <b>this</b> old chestnut again. Please do enlighten us, Drunkie McGinsponge, as to who these mysterious, evil billionaires are and what their possible agenda could be for pushing what you believe is nothing more than a great big hoax? FYI, just because you repeat the lie a billion times, doesn&#039;t make it true, no matter how hard you ignore the science.
If there weren&#039;t billionaires spending millions to fight public understanding of global warming, it wouldn&#039;t even be an issue, but the anti-science &quot;sober and sophisticated&quot; are glad to take their money, consequences be damned.

And with that, The Bidenator nails it!

Happy hour!
But, Benghazi.
Not insane!
Well, at least not Papoon.
Doubly so. The Chronicles of Noonia just keep rolling along. Keep up the brilliant work, GL.
She looks like she is experiencing the mother of all toothaches.
Thanks to a certain President cutting community mental health funding, Pegs is able to walk the streets...

<strike>Nancy Pelosi</strike> Dame Noonan is an <strike>attractive,</strike> noncredible partisan who just natters wordage.
FIFY, Peggers.

That line about billionaires sounds like class warfare. I think you meant &quot;job creators.&quot; Silly liberals.
We are about to find out what effect two more years of doing absolutely nothing at all has on a country. I&#039;m anticipating: not much good.
Peggy&#039;s gin blossoms are visible from space.
