Some Quotes about Novakula
i'm reading Vanity Fair and there is a big spead on Novakula, here on some quotes about him from people we know.

Bob Shrum"I still call him friend"
Michael Kinsley"underneath that asshole theres a nice guy, underneath that nice theres another asshole"

Barney Frank "It's the worst, most glaring example of people in Washington putting personal realtions over their principles so they can prove how openminded and civil they are. Indulging Novak's hatefulness is one the membership requirements of the Washington establishment" Frank isn't a member, thankfully but it does shed some light on why Novak hasn't been horse whipped. Also, Judith Miller(ack) and Matthew Cooper have gotten no support at all from Novak and they are both "somewhat surprised" by that. I'm not.

No link, sorry you'll have to buy the issue, it's well worth it because it has an excellent expose on Halliburton and bunnitine Greenhouse, the whistleblower on Halliburton's no bid contracts.

1. I want to know how he REALLY broke that hip
...and I also think he knows where a lot of bodies are buried, and he's got polaroids, and that is why people put up with his crap. He's the devil on TV, if you ask me.

2. maybe his hip was trying to escape it's host.
i'm sure he has the dirt on everyone or everyone doesn't want to be in Novaks crosshairs for his next column. Bob Shrum needs a slap in the head.

3. The image of Novak lying in pain on the floor with a broken hip.
That's something to smile about.

5. i enjoyed that one too.
And good for barney Frank, i think thats one of the reasons he's not well liked by the media crowd, he won't bend and scrape for the like of Novak.
