You may have noticed that, during the run-up to Reagan’s 100th birthday, the very media types who trashed him for decades are now trying to remake him into a RINO. The last straw for Noonan came when Andrea Mitchell made the following idiotic assertion:
People are trying … Republicans in particular, obviously trying to appropriate Ronald Reagan for their own political purposes now.
David Gregory wanted to accept that at face value but Noonan interrupted:
Whoa … Republicans are not trying to appropriate Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan was a Republican. Conservatives aren’t trying to appropriate him. He was a conservative.
