Robert Novak retires due to "dire" brain tumor

because of

 

Sirs, Madames,

A lifetime of campaigning for the repeal of the estate tax and now this.

Nine-tenths of his politics I couldn't stand but he wasn't always a Republican shill (e.g. he opposed W's Unexcellent Iraq Adventure from the get-go ... if not the Gitmo). I found Novak's conversion to Catholicism: (a) as a crack in his facade, fascinating; and (b) as a Catholic myself, terrifying. I'm of the de-mortius-nihil-nisi-bonum school usually but this one is a true test.

YD&OHS, etc

 

Never was a fan of fiddling while Rome is burning.

My 2:42 post from yesterday afternoon continues to speak for itself.

 

Uh, Boom, you just posted something other than a wish for Mr. Novak's speedy recovery.

 

I love all this GOP whining about "propriety" in the wake of one of the least-decorous administrations in U. S. history.

It is to laugh.

 

Who's taking the action on Ted outlasting the Prince of Darkness?

 

That's almost as bad as the notorious offshore deadpool matchup between Bob Hope and the Pope.

 

Well, Novak can't crack wise about Ted's driving anymore.

 

I guess now Robert can spend more time with his buddy and friend Jeff "I took a 30 day journalism course and became a journalist!!!" Gannon, reliving old times on how they were the first to spill beans on Valerie Plame.

 

. . . or whatever his name was.

Watch your back, there.
