What A Fucking Prick

So, when you're already one of the most vile creatures on the planet, what can you do to make even more people think you are?

Well, Robert Novak - you know, the guy that's got to be the offspring of Gollum and The Toxic Avenger - would ruin Valerie Plames life all over again if given the chance. Why, you ask?

I’d go full speed ahead because of the hateful and beastly way in which my left-wing critics in the press and Congress tried to make a political affair out of it and tried to ruin me. My response now is this: The hell with you. They didn’t ruin me. I have my faith, my family, and a good life. A lot of people love me — or like me. So they failed. I would do the same thing over again because I don’t think I hurt Valerie Plame whatsoever

Aw, "they tried to ruin me". Boo-frickin-hoo. You buy the ticket, you take the fucking ride, Bobby.

So, let's get this straight.

Robert Novak, not acting on anything but some reactionary twitch he gets when he sees a chance to stick up for his boy George, would end the career of an undercover CIA operative, most likely putting her very life and the life of her family at risk.

Let's not sugar-coat what Novak did. He seriously fucked with National Security. That's it. Case closed.

Of course, this is the man who ran over a guy and didn't blink twice. What else would we expect.

There's Got To Be Some Sort Of Poetic Justice In This

Seems that "Undercover CIA Agent outer" and recent "hit-and-run" purveyor Robert Novak has been diagnosed with a brain tumor.

He is quoted as saying:

"I will be suspending my journalistic work for an indefinite but, God willing, not too lengthy period."

Now, I'm about to cross that line.

You know, that line where - on one side - you're just reporting about something, and - the other side - where you're "spewing hate" as Bill O'Reilly loves to say.

I kind of see this as a form of "justice" that we don't often see. The same could be said if Rush Limbaugh were to get throat cancer, or Sean Hannity were to get permanent laryngitis and go bald within the same week, or Bill O'Reilly get slapped with a sexual harassment lawsuit and has to pay-out tens of millions of dollars to "make it go away" --- oh, wait, that already happened.

"Cited" With "Hitting a Pedestrian"?

Are you serious?!?!



For the rest of us, that would be called a "hit-and-run".

And, how can you not notice a guy laying on the hood of your car while you're driving?

Novak tells us he was listening to NPR in his Corvette when suddenly, "Some guy came up and hit my car with his fist. I figured I had done something that had created road rage, but I didn't know what it was. Then a bicyclist blocked the road in front of me. I asked what the problem was. He said, 'You can't just hit people and run away!'"

No, but he can help "out" and undercover CIA agent and get away with it.

I loved John Stewarts take on this ( form last night's DailyShow )
