Hi Jane!

Why did he think it was ethical to publish an unsubstantiated, political hit piece story that was based, at best, on 2nd hand hearsay?

1?

who told downstairs?

OK – sent my respectfully-phrased insult question.

Suzanne @ 5

who told downstairs?

I did.

Did he have Thanksgiving dinner with the Toensings?

Bob?
Can I call you Bob?

Why is it that at every turn, what you have to say is refuted accurately, yet you persist in irritating the shit out of us anyway?

Well, they don’t call The Novakula “No-facts” without a reason, now do they?

Oh so my wingnut son had an internship with Novak during the 04 elections. Naturally he thought Novak was a nice guy.

Bob, how does it sound, exactly, when the CIA asks you — twice –not to publish someone’s name in a way that they clearly don’t really mean, so that you can go ahead and publish it anyway?

I’ve given up.

Bob, do you use the same park trashcan to communicate with Karl Rove that Robert Hanssen used to get his messages from the Soviet Russians?

Lol!

Seriously though, I really can’t think of anything to ask Novack that wouldn’t come across as rude and insulting.
There is no there there.

Hey Teddy! I hope you had a glorious TG.

And, OT, but btw, did you get the vids I sent you? And, do you agree (h/t newt) that Nancy tittles?

Bob, what did you get in return when you sold your soul?

Suzanne @ 22

Bob, what did you get in return when you sold your soul?

And was it more or less than the price of a candy bar?

Actually, IMNSHO, asking him a question of any type, confrontational or pleasant, only serves to give him validation.

If confrontational, it validates him in his world view of everything bad comes from the left/Dems/DFHs.

If asked pleasantly, it validates that he truly is a patriot, even if only a legend in his own mind.

Ignoring him is truly the only way to show him how minimal he is in everything.

Bob, is there anything you wouldn’t do for Karl Rove?

(waving to teddy across the coast range)

Bob, is your phone number in the madam’s book, Gannon’s book, or both?

I guess we should ask the same question of WaPo.

Bob, can you tell us about the relationship between an adult convert and his godmother? Is it sweet and pure?

(Old 60 Grit is Novak’s godmother, iirc)

How can you mention the words “sweet and pure” in the same comment that names those two individuals?

As a teacher and a mom, I am quite familiar with this strategy, though I don’t pull it off as often as I’d like.

Here are my questions for Bob Nofacts:

Bob, Bob, Bob

So many questions, so little respect for you.

What code of ethics allows a seasoned journalist to so cavalierly toss around the name of a covert CIA agent in a nationally syndicated column?

Why aren’t you in jail? Why isn’t Scooter Libby in jail? Does Dick Armitage have a neck? (only the last one was a joke)

Can I write anything about you without any repercussions whatsoever?

Can you help me give him a boost? (saves me the trouble of writing a diary tonight with my triptophan-soaked brain).

Thanks.

Actually, T-daying alone, so got massive turkey dinner delivered to my door. Only one piece of pie for dessert, otherwise I’d share.

I have some split pea soup left over for tomorrow.

…I guess we could ask him how it feels, on this particular day, to be considered by many as the biggest turkey of all.

My random googling on turkeys (the bird) revealed that they think it got its name because it came from Turkey originally. Too lazy to double check.

But in NM, we had only dried weeds.
Still makes effective switches.

Mr Novak

“now that you know you exposed vital covert assets and cost this country information that would have saved lives, do you consider yourself a murderer?”

do you think they would field that question?

Well, I have to work tomorrow and before I succumb to a sugar coma I better hit the road shortly.
I wonder if anyone will get a second wind for Late Nite?

Y’all have a good evening, I’ll see ya tomorrow.

Gnite Mods.

Mr. Novak when will you retire, is today too soon?

night busted

Mr. NoFacts, at what age did you decide to become an amoral shill for the power elites?

My best hypothesis is that it’s the powerful-parent syndrome. Had to turn against me to get away from me. However, the negative reaction stopped working when he was about 10, and furthermore, I don’t think I could be a convincing wingnut. But it was a good idea.

Sorry, newt, my memory was faulty. You said “titters”, as an alternative to my suggestion that she “giggles”. I am so sorry for having misremembered what you said.

For a few minutes I thought he was gonna be addressing we firepups right here on FDL. Oh my!

I have no questions for Novakula, I just wish he would pay a price for outing a CIA agent. I know death is the ultimate sentence for treason, but life behind bars being forced to contemplate what he has done and watching the consequences of his betrayals, is far worse IMO.

Cat In Seattle

The question I submitted was a simple one : “Why aren’t you dead yet?”

Suzanne @ 15

i bet no novakula avoids anything with garlic

I just submitted that question. ;-)

I saw a reort about his book at: http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2….._politics/ , You know, Robert Novak is a well-known conservative political journalist, his memoir is for those who enjoy the arcana of politics. It seems that this book “The Prince of Darkness” is very popular. Some people think it is absolutely outstanding. I found it with a good price here: http://dealstudio.com/searchde…..l_id=69654 ,
I want to buy one, then I can have my own viewpoints on it.

Mr. Novak: As a convert to Catholicism, how do you justify your mean spiritedness with your Church?

Bob, may I call you Bob? No? OK, Bob, whay aren’t you dead yet and is there ANYTHING we/I might do that would kinda help that along?

Yeah, Jane. I got a question for him.

Bob! When you were a journalism major studying in that 1929 Munich beer hall University, did you ever pull a three-wayer with Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh?

Jane I saw you today on C-span and was hooked by your candor and honesty, not to mention your Jean Harlow looks. As of today you are replacing Huffington Post on my favorites list, honesty is non-existant at HuffPo. I don’t know why I haven’t discovered your site sooner.
