Road rage is never pleasant, and cannot be looked upon as something positive or good, and cannot be excused even when dealing with such a noble and honorable person as Mr. Novak.

Oh, I see. You've determined this was not just a hit-and-run, but aggravated assault with a deadly weapon (e.g. a vehicle) which somehow escaped the notice of the officers on the scene. Well in that case, never mind.


Whoops! There I go again with the

Novak is guilty of failure to yield and driving while conservative...the second charge is far more serious here at Fool Moon.

No, I was not referring to the hit and run, the "road rage" refers to his yelling at a jaywalker to "read the signs, asshole." I have no way of knowing if he was angry or not when he hit the pedestrian, but he seems like the kind of guy who is always angry about everything, so there's a liklihood he wasn't singing "Pleasant Valley Sunday" as he steered his vehicle into the path of a pedestrian asshole.

Kindly be less eager to find things that don't exist to use against me, if you possibly can, which is doubtful, but do try.

It's more that people enjoy seeing a person Jon Stewart refers to as a "political douchebag" getting a little of what goes around. Novak escaped all harm in the Valerie Plame incident while acting as a propaganda agent for the administration. This piddly little hit and run is nothing compared to what he deserves.

A "failure to yield" that put his victim in the hospital, and for which he didn't stop.

Ahh...and the real motivation for this attack on Novak comes out. Dax and his fellow travellers do not give a shit about this traffic accident...they only care about taking down a semi-conservative who did not join their efforts to attack the Bush administration. Its good to see that Dax et al can maintain their focus at least...

No question about it. I don't care much at all about the traffic accident except that an innocent person suffered apparently serious injuries requiring hospitalization. We often tend to overlook the victim in these discussions, a real person suffering real pain.

I'm against all hit and run drivers, of course, and all drivers who fail to yield as well, but this particular driver is as I have earlier named him, and you have not denied, a propaganda tool of the administration posing as a columnist.

But my feeling towards Novak is similar to the delight felt by the right when Ted Kennedy's drunken accident killed Mary Jo Kopechne. The more trouble that can be visited upon Novak as a result of this incident, the better I feel about it.

He can't receive worse than he deserves, it's not possible.

As it turns out... Novak will most likely be getting a break, because he collided with a nice guy of 86 years old. "Bob Novak is the one that hit me? Well, everybody knows who Bob Novak is! He's a famous journalist! . . . I was struck by Bob Novak? . . . Well, I think that makes it a great story!" said the homeless Don Clifford Liljenquest.

He won't be homeless for long.

So, Dax, are you against all journalists who are propaganda tools or only those who you think are tools for Bush? If its the former you must be ready to crucify 99% of press...Dax, you are a hypocrit. Plain and simple. I do not seem to recall, though is possible I missed it, you condemning those who shamelessly propagandize for the Left...
