Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Syndicated columnist Robert D. Novak was cited by police after he hit a pedestrian with his black Corvette in downtown Washington, D.C., on Wednesday morning. "I feel terrible," a shaken Novak told reporters as he was returning to his car. "He's not dead, that's the main thing."

Politico notes that in a 2001 interview with the Washington Post, Novak said, I really hate jaywalkers. I despise them. Since I dont run the country, all I can do is yell at em. The other option is to run em over, but as a compassionate conservative, I would never do that.--

18th and K Street?

Well, he probably hit a lobbyist/lawyer.

"Damn, he messed up my convertible!" -- Novak

So strikes the "PRINCE OF DARKNESS"

80 years old with a Vet?

I didnt know I hit him. ... I feel terrible,-- a shaken Novak told reporters from Politico and WJLA as he was returning to his car.


Bono said that the pedestrian, who was crossing the street on a "Walk" signal and was in the crosswalk, rolled off the windshield and that Novak then made a right into the service lane of K Street. This car is speeding away. Whats going through my mind is, you just cant hit a pedestrian and drive away,-- Bono said.


so he hits some guy who goes rolling off his windshield and he didnt know he hit him.

the lying sack of shit

"80 years old with a Vet?"


post life crisis?

Learn to read the signs, [bodily orifice]!


Novak is a bodily orifice

With Novak being involved, maybe this is no accident. Probably just another dark conspiracy brought to you courtesy the Bush Admin.

carma

"Novak is a bodily orifice"


A nostril?

He thought the pedestrian was John McCain

ear canal a i think all that wax buildup makes him sound like he has marbles or a young boys balls in his mouth when he talks.

"young boys balls in his mouth when he talks."

your nambla ties are showing again.

old Bob has had a tough week, first the McCain campiagn uses him about the VP lie, now this.

Why do they allow old senile people to drive? Was he looking for the Country Kitchen Buffet?

novacula does a hit-and-run?

Now there's a surprise. I'm actually amazed he's going to get away with it....(he said sarcastically..)

Tried to leave the scene too....POS!

SO WHY WASN'T HE SITED FOR HIT AND RUN, A FELONY.

AFTER WHAT HE DID TO PLAME, IT WOULD BE LIKE SENDING OJ UP THE RIVER FOR STEALING HIS SUIT BACK. POETIC JUSTICE.

It wasn't Helen Thomas, was it? Hell, she's no taller than the front bumper so maybe he DIDN'T see her. When she hit the windshield he probably thought it was a large moth.

Tried to leave the scene too....POS!

YEAH!

Well, this seems to be becoming the norm with these people!

They are the first to run, the first to abandon principle, the first to sidestep conviction, their first instinct is to always lie and are always eager to rush in defend those of their liking who do the same.

Don't worry Novak, Bush will give you a pardon.

"Well, this seems to be becoming the norm with these people"


YEAH

who does he think he is, a fucking Kennedy?

"who does he think he is, a fucking Kennedy?"

YEAH!

There you go again!

Comparing what you Claim is Americas Best to what you historically claimed is Americas Worst!

I guess that makes it a wash in Bush World ---- provided you have checked your principles at the door before hand of course (see previous post)!


Awww red, don't like looking in the mirror?

Who does he think he is....Laura Bush???

Sounds like an attempted hit and run.

I only wish Bob NobSack didn't think we're all so stupid as to believe that he didn't know he hit a man who was 'splayed' across his windshield.

Awww red, don't like looking in the mirror?

That makes no sense! Even your attempt at something as simple as mocking, is lame!

Home schooled are you?

"Who does he think he is": Sen Dodd?

Sounds like an attempted hit and run--

YEAH!

The eye witness said that throughout it all, Novak kept trying to drive away.

How much do you want to bet that the victim will say he made eye contact with Novak before he sped away!


I suspect Novaks going to be writing a sizable check in the near future!

"That makes no sense!"


Wow i even have to explain it to you. Ok I'll talk slowly so you understand. Ready?
You are happy to jump on anyone that you don't like but when it is your guy that is under attack you get your panties in a twist.
That is the comparison, you see everyone else's problems but refuse to see yours.

I just got a call from an eye witness. He said the victum was Sandy Burger running across the street with more secret documents in his under-pants.

"You are happy to jump on anyone that you don't like but when it is your guy that is under attack you get your panties in a twist."

YEAH!

Except ------ Who is My Guy again?

But anyway, By all means, talk about Kennedy all you like -- no sweat off my nose.


I was just simply pointing out how you Defended one you Obviously like and have a Great Amount of Affection and Respect for ---- by comparing them to Someone who you Loath and Detest!

Not exactly a glowing endorsement for Novak, (or even remotely rational) unless of course you are incapable of making that principled connection on your own (which obviously you cant)!


The Prince of Darkness probably saw some old guy that reminded him of McCain, remembered how McCain punked him with the VP story..... and hit the gas!

He hit some black guy, thinking it was Obama.

And ff for sal's post life crisis.

NORTHGUY3: You mean he thought he hit some Arab!

" I was just simply pointing out how you Defended one you Obviously like and have a Great Amount of Affection and Respect for ---- by comparing them to Someone who you Loath and Detest!"


You have an interesting definition of defending. I usually equate making fun of someone with just about the opposite of defending, but hey, your free to think what you will. I still find it funny how quickly you choose to be offended by a little joke.

Ouch.

I'm sad. NObody picked up on my SouthPark reference. Sob.

"when it is your guy that is under attack you get your panties in a twist

What is it with you and twisted panties, Lizard-tits? That some kinda funky rightard fetish?

What is it with you and reptilian breasts?

splayed across windshield

I didnt know i hit anyone


guilty


he was on his way to work? WHo the fuck hired that ballsack?

"What is it with you and reptilian breasts?

Posted by salamandagator"

I call 'em like I see em, Scaly Nipples.

Novak should throw the blame to McCain since Novak was probably pissed off at being used by him to report erroneous stories.


80 years old with a Vet?

Posted by LeeAtwater at 2008-07-23 02:20 PM | Reply

That is kinda wierd. Most Vette drivers are in their mid-40s, divorced and have a well-paid but pointless job.

When I was in college (business degree) I did a demographic study on Corvette owners, and many of them peaked in high school -- football stars, married and divorced the cheerleader, etc.

After that all they did was compensate

The SOB didn't even read my column! And dented my Vette, too. He deserves to suffer! MY 'VETTE! He's not supposed to be walking anywhere near MY 'VETTE!

Well, maybe he IS a lawyer, or better yet, a LOBBYIST! I can hope, can't I? Don't be a Bush, or worse yet, A freakin' Kennedy, or god forbid, a Shumer or Durbin!

Damn, this is terrible, and they promised to let me drive 'til I am 95. I'd better hold'em to that deal! I mean, after all it's not really my fault, just cause I'm old and can't see!

Lie
Deny the lie
Deny that you denied
Lie that you denied that you denied
Send your car out immediately to be detailed
Lie that it was your car
Lie about even being there
Write a column about faulty 'Walk' signs
Lie about the victim
Swiftboat the witness
Look on the head of a pin for a character witness
Write a glowing column about your character witness

If all that fails, call Dick Cheney and he'll scare the bejesus out of your judge.

and in the end get pardoned

Don't know what it is, but just looking at pictures of Novak convinces me that he is pure evil..

Sprague,

I agree. The guy is looks sinister.

Visibility in a Vette is bad enough, then you throw in someone like Novak with such heavy eyelids that his eyes are never open wide to begin with, bound to happen.

Didja ever notice? He never looks anyone in the eye on the TV. Always looking down.

JEFF

It's the Ayatollah Khomeini eyes!

This will cost him. If he didn't notice sideswiping a pedestrian then he's admitted gross negligence in operating a motor vehicle, and that is grounds for punitive damages. Read: Undisclosed settlement.

Take away his license and make him hire a chauffeur. One more new job.

This is where the rightwinger usually goes out of his way to pretend to care about the little people...


**** Who does he think he is....Laura Bush???
...posted by danni****

......naw......

......if Novak thought he was Laura Bush, he would have backed up over the guy, and finished him off......

"who does he think he is, a fucking Kennedy?"

"Who does he think he is....Laura Bush???"
Posted by danni


Let's consider these two cases;

Laura Bush, a barely 17 year old who had drived for about one year missed a stop sign and hit and killed another high school student. No drinking found to be involved.

Ted Kennedy, about 40 something year old US Senator drunk as a skunk leaves a woman to drown and walks away.

Doesn't seem like exactly the same from a negligence standpoint.


It's really mindless to compare one person's misdeeds to others. If Robert Novak hit a pedestrian and drove off, that's hit and run. Let's prosecute the case in front of us, instead of dredging up past misdeeds of either party that occurred under wildly different circumstances. That's just plain lazy.

but that is not nearly as fun...

Posted by TedBaxter

The witness on the bicycle that made Novak pull over said the pedestrian was "splayed acrsoss the hood of the car up the windshield".

Yeah, real easy to miss that.

Just another fine example of "personal responsibility" of the right courtesy of Novak.

He never looks anyone in the eye on the TV. Always looking down.
