So Novakula never outgrew his parents’ politics?

Hi Marion, pups,

Wich explains why he was storming off tv sets when his limited inhuman worldview was challenged and ridiculed. He was an eight year old bully until the very end.

He suffered and died from a condition I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy, however, I feel no pain at his passing.

He knew he lied. About Valerie Plame and a whole lot of stuff . . . which will eventually come out once he’s in the ground.

And, if I have to listen to Pat Buchanan moaning about what a “great” loss it is to the nation one more time, I think I’m gonna throw up.

Class him in the same category as Lee Atwater (who died of the same disease, btw) and Tony Snowjob and Matt the Drudge, etc. — gone and soon forgotten.
