[Jon] Stewart: [Bob] Novak? No way!

[TheWebHead]

CNN "Crossfire" host Robert Novak is recovering from a broken hip and facing weeks of physical therapy before he gets back on the air.
But that didn't stop "The Daily Show" anchor Jon Stewart from jumping all over the 73-year-old conservative columnist at the center of a Justice Department probe into who leaked the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame, the wife of Bush White House antagonist Joseph Wilson.

"Bob Novak could end this whole thing tomorrow," the "fake news" apostle declared at a New Yorker magazine breakfast at the Bryant Park Grill. "There's millions of dollars being spent on this investigation, and people are going to jail, but his evil is not allowed even in the darkened abyss of his soul - some would say soul."

Stewart added: "He leaked a CIA source for punitive reasons - for ugly, partisan purposes."

1. I couldn't agree more

'...Piling on, Stewart continued: "I would not have him on the show. I have standards. I wouldn't do it. He shouldn't be on television. CNN should not have him on the air. He should not be amongst civilized people."

NoFacts should have been fired the instant that column hit the streets. Way 2 go, Jon.

Too bad they didn't mention Jon honored NoFacts w/ the Douchebag of Liberty award

2. So.. if Satan had an operation, we should send a get well card??

Novak's hip boo-boo, does not excuse what he did..

3. I could not agree more!

There are reasons for these things. Like, knock the legs out from another, get your legs knocked out.
I didn't make up the 'rules'.. just observe them!

People are going to JAIL, for what this Scum set loose!
Not to mention a ruined career and, goddess forbid, whatever else went down!

This inflames me :grr:

4. I couldn't agree more.

Novak is repulsive, arrogant and has caused tremendous harm. But Jon gets more to the point and furthers. . .

"Novak apparently broke his hip. I think that's not the case," Stewart said under questioning from Ken Auletta. "I think his hip tried to escape."

Piling on, Stewart continued: "I would not have him on the show. I have standards. I wouldn't do it. He shouldn't be on television. CNN should not have him on the air. He should not be amongst civilized people."

7. Novak would be the first one...

to toss around the word "traitor" for people who did anything remotely close to what he did.

Intellectually dishonest. Hypocrite. Soulless fascist.

14. Novak can hang from the highest tree on the hill for all to see how

America won't tolerate traitors!

9. Go Jon!!!!!

[stanwyck]

10. This is why CNN is losing viewership

the conervatives have FAUX. I used to watch CNN. But their failure to fire Novak, along with other incidences of pandering, have caused me to quit watching. The word must have gone out to the CNN folks to imitate the FAUX talkers in order to attract viewers. Well, as Yogi Berra would say: include me out.
