- BOB NOVAK RETIRES: Because of the cancer. He’s been writing his column since 1963, the year Lyndon Johnson became president. [Chicago Sun-Times]
THE END
Sometimes the Lord blesses us with such joyful events such as this.
I’d never wish something like a brain tumor on anyone, but Novak will not be missed outside of his the comedy behind his unfailing ability to be wrong.
A true hero of the Soviet Union, who and one of the few foreigners to receive the Order Of Lenin for his work tirelessly exposing the names and identities of CIA agents so that they could do no further harm to leaders of Revolutionary Proletarian Liberation movements around the globe.
Congratulations to Bob “Prince of Darkness” Novak on his retirement. I don’t take any pleasure from his illness, but I am enormously pleased that he won’t be pimping his fascist politics on teevee anymore.
Did he out any undercover operatives in his final send-off?
This is an Omen, isnt it?
Somewhere Paul Begala is smiling.
…hows Bill Kristol feeling nowadays? No blinding headaches or inexplicable nose bleeds?
A tragic end to a distinguished career of service to the American public. Thank God we have Kristol, Limbaugh, Hannity, O’Reilly to continue fighting the good fight.
C’mon. He’s a lovable curmudgeon. And A HUGE Terp fan. So what if he’s for running over civil rights faster than a D.C. pedestrian?
Here’s hoping for good doctors, eventually recovery, or a peaceful exit, whichever it may be…
As tribute, I propose making this Friday Robert Novak Day in Washington D.C. We can celebrate his legacy by running over covert CIA operatives with our Corvettes.
If you out a CIA agent, you get terminal brain cancer. Moral of the story — don’t even think of fuckin’ with the CIA.
Barry gets all the good birthday presents.
How will Liberty keep that clean, fresh smell without its douchbag?
After years of tilting at Straw Men, Novak reveals he has been the Scarecrow all along… I wish I could click my heels, but they’re too mired in horseshit.
McCain for Mayor of Munchkinland!
Terry: Novak wasn’t exactly wrong when he said the Iraq war would be a colossal mistake and Saddam Hussein had no weapons of mass destruction… The man was an old-school journalist who actually did reporting, which is more than all the right wing hacks out there.
John McClain: Damn, this comment was supposed to appear on the “has a brain” post directly above this one. I tell you, sometimes I am SUCH a McCain…
Look, I can’t be happy about anybody having a brain tumor, but let me put it this way:
Get well soon, Bob. Get healthy. And once you’re healthy, please stay retired.
