PERSON PROFILEPeggy NoonanPeggy Noonan was a speech writer for Ronald Reagan, worked for the Bush administration, and is credited with coming up with the "Thousand Points of Light" idea. Lately, she's been on a Hillary Clinton bashing project, writing the The Case Against Hillary Clinton. Here's an excerpt from a review of the anti-Hillary book written by Jane Mayer, a writer for the New Yorker: "What is too bad, though, is that Noonan, whose reputation was forged in the Reagan White House, tailors her polemic so narrowly to fit her partisan purposes. She admits that the Reagan White House had a few "wiggy" moments, too, but can she really rail so self-righteously about Hillary's supposed channeling of Eleanor Roosevelt without just as deeply examining Nancy Reagan's reliance on astrologers or Maureen Reagan's conviction that the Lincoln bedroom was haunted by a ghost? Is it fair to cluck over Vince Foster's suicide without mentioning that the national security adviser in the Reagan White House also tried to take his life, in his case after having been exposed bringing a cake baked in the shape of a key to Iranian mullahs, in hope of freeing American hostages?

Wrote Noonan, describing how automatic suspicion should attach to all Arabic-looking men in the US: "I think we're going to require a lot of patience from a lot of innocent people. And you know, I don't think that's asking too much. And when it's not given, I think we should recognize that as odd."
