Peggy Noonan upset about Rand Paul’s jeans

Mar. 18, 2013 10:38am Eddie Scarry

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) wore almost a full suit for his speech at CPAC on Thursday. He had everything right except the jeans and Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan was so bothered by them…

On her WSJ blog Saturday Noonan wrote:

I wear jeans and you wear jeans and it’s not unusual for a man to wear jeans with a tie and jacket. They look like happy farmers, or cable TV anchors whose desks don’t show their legs. That being said, could we not wear grown-up suits when we are running for high office?

She’s also upset about Sen. Marco Rubio talking about rap music (“do we have to talk so much about Tupac and Biggie, and how the former’s melodic inventiveness is almost equaled by the latter’s lyrical depth?”), one of Rep. Paul Ryan‘s Time photo shoots (“Could we please not pose pumping iron in our gym shorts while wearing baseball caps backward on our heads?”) and Rep. Aaron Schock‘s Men’s Health cover (“Could we not pose shirtless to show our abs?”)

Poor Peggy, she must be in a time warp…the elections haven’t started yet, he was making a speech and not running for office. Get a life Pegs! They were jeans!

Rand Paul can wear whatever he darn well pleases and he rocks it. I loved the binder. Peggy Noonan is just peeved because she wasn’t invited this year.

Good distraction. Just like with Palin, can’t argue the message against her? Go after the clothes.

Hilarious- We met Rand Paul 2 years ago- he was part of a panel discussion at Freedom Fest in Vegas-
When he stood up to shake our hands- his suit and tie upper contrasted with his plaid shorts and top siders- told us he got away with this because his wife had not come to Freedom Fest……

Oh Please, with all the devestation the the POTUS is pushing on the US of A, all she can worry about is ….Does he have on jeans or slacks. Give me a break I would rather see him in a 35 dollar pair of jeans hell 65 dollar pair of jeans versus a 4,000 suit. COME ON ! Libs it is time to wake up and pull your head our the sand. Or @$$ not sure where it is at this point. a bunch od d-@sses, I can not believe that THEY BELIEVE all this crap !
