On the Left James Carville, on the Right Robert Novak, WTF?

Not since Dan Rather walked off the set have we had so much fun!

Novak told Carville: "That's b------t." He should have told him: "That's b------t, a-----e."

Robert Novak has been a journalist for over 50 years with almost that much time in Washington. Carville is a Democrat operative with no journalist credentials. It is a disgrace that CNN has him on the air as a paid analyst. They should hand out goggles to anyone who appears with him to protect them from the flying spittle.

The video is too short. I'd like to see what set him off. That would be much more fun.
 
Re: We want MORE!

Watch tonight's repeat of the Daily Show for a different take on things. They were about to question Robert on his CIA Operative Story!

I guess you could say that Robert Novak had his "Howard Beale moment" last night, huh?

Come to think of it, Novak even used the same epithet that Beale used......"Bull...."

Life imitates art, yes?

It's apparent from the video that what set him off was Carville's insinuation that Novak was acting tough to impress The Wall Street Journal. Even the interviewer said Novak was told in advance that Novak was briefed beforehand that he would be asked about The Leak Story.

CNN was right to tell him to take time off. If he isn't used to Carville by now, when will he be.

At least Novak immediately apologized.
 
What would Roland Evans have thought?

I'm sure you are correct. I just always have a hard time understanding what Carville says!

The pundits think that "Who's who in America" book sitting on that desk prompted Novak to find something to avoid further discussion on the scandal he's so involved in. I haven't seen one myself. The pundits report that Valerie Plame's name COULDN'T be located in there as Novak stated. Carville's comment was just an excuse to bail...
 
Story is that Robert Nofacts planned the "walk off" when the show of the host told him that he had a copy of the book Novak aka Nofacts said listed Valarie Plume's name. It didn't and Novak/Nofacts knew that. Rather than fact the fact he staged this walk off.

The book is Who's Who and it does list Joe Wilson's spouse as Valerie Plaime.
 
Sometimes facts get Twisted here, you are correct!
