Bob Novak dies of cancer -- and his right-wing pals rush to lie about his role in the Plame case
Robert Novak died today of brain cancer.
Novak will perhaps be best remembered -- if at all -- as one of the most compulsive professional liars to have wormed his way inside the Beltway, and that's saying something. And when it came to the interference he ran to protect the Bush-Cheney administration -- culminating in his central role in the Valerie Plame affair -- and his resulting efforts to cover his tracks, it even had historic proportions. Novak himself had constantly lied about this role, and was fond of accusing the people uncovering his tracks of lying. (See Marcy's authoritative work on Novak for more.)
Unsurprisingly, his friends are now eager to make us all forget this. Tim Carney's remembrance omits any mention of it whatsoever. And then there was Fred Barnes on Fox this morning, who simply followed in his friend's footsteps and flatly lied about the Plame case:
Barnes: Bob -- you know, Bob was unruffled by the whole thing. He had to get a lawyer, but, ah, you know, it was no problem to him.
Of course, it turned out that he was the first one to hear from anybody in the Bush administration about Valerie Plame, uhm, being a part, and her husband, you know, helping her husband get this, go to this trip to Africa, and then say that President Bush had -- what President Bush had said about Saddam Hussein seeking uranium in Africa was wrong.
They're still discussing it. It turns out that President Bush was right.
But anyway, Bob was caught up in this scandal, he'd heard about it first, and reported it in his column, and then was perfectly comfortable being the center of attention in a legal case that went on for years and years.
WTF? It's long been an established fact that Novak's reportage was wrong, and in fact was just a propaganda-driven smear on behalf of the Bush administration, since Plame in fact had nothing to do with Joe Wilson getting the Niger assignment. (George Tenet himself explained: "Mid-level officials in CPD [The CIA’s Directorate of Operations Counterproliferation Division] decided on their own initiative to [ask Joe Wilson to look into the Niger issue because] he'd helped them on a project once before, and he'd be easy to contact because his wife worked in CPD.")
And since when has it "turned out" that "Bush was right" about the Niger yellowcake? Not only was the report on which he based the claim he made in the State of the Union built from set of hoax documents, but the White House ignored warnings that this was likely the case. Moreover, there has been no subsequent evidence to suggest that Saddam indeed sought yellowcake from Niger.
Ah, but such things as facts and truthfulness matter little to people like Robert Novak and Fred Barnes. All they care about is covering their tracks. Lying is what they do, right up to their final breaths.
Novak may have been one of the last "good" old-school typerwriter reporters, but he lost it in his ideology. He became a bit of a snake.
No denying he had an impact, but not sure if you could call it a good one.
...old school reporter that fits him is old.
I always thought a 'reporter' was one who gathered actual facts, and then reported them. Bob seemed to have a penchant for just makin' things up.....

He could have been a repugnant con.
Sounds like one.
Sins of Fraud. That would be you, Mr. Novak. Watch your step.
...just endless oblivion where he and his kind belong.
it's events like this that make me wonder that IF god exists, perhaps his aim is getting better.
No god...no devil either..
Brain cancer eh?
Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
..I can't, I just can't, its everything that's wrong in this world..I can't say the one word..rush...oh dammit..

I'm sure there is a pack of rabid jackals mourning this loss somewhere.
being hanged by the neck until well and truly dead, as he deserved. Where do mean-spirited traitors who do their betrayals out of nothing more than spiteful vendictiveness go when they die?
IMHO, following, of course, a guilty verdict by his peers.
That said, apparently Someone with more pull than I decided to save the taxpayers the expense of a trial.

why we hadn't heard from the douchebag of liberty in some time.
sucks that he had brain cancer, but regardless, he was still a traitor to America.
I say if one of us got to beat it, I'm glad it was me.

Condolences to his family.

Fred Barnes isn't smart enough to be a good liar. He wrote a book a few years back praising bush. "Rebel in Chief" As someone said in the reviews it seems to be a love letter to bush from Fred. Need I day more?
I won't speak ill of the dead. I will respect the family's mourning period. But once that is behind us, I'll have a whole lot to say.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

This month the right'll be singing his praises. Next month they'll pin all GWB's plamegate on him and accuse the left on not letting it die with him.
The death of any man diminishes me, though some more or less than others.

this time.
Some stuff you can't make up!
I am sorry that I didn't return in time to change this.
On reflection I would rather have said: do not speak ill of the recently departed, if you cannot say anything good then say nothing at all…
And leave it at that, but alas…
statusquObama, change you can only pretend in
respectfully, I admit to succumbing to the temptation of your post. I certainly meant your intent no disrespect.

add that I hope, for the sake of the nation, the funeral director double-checks that the stake is in place before he nails the coffin shut.
Of course, Saddam purchased yellow cake and met with Atta and worked with the Taliban and spoke to bin Laden daily and had WMD's and....
Rightwingers have never let a few inconvenient facts get in the way of re-writing history (even if it's irrefutable).
They're like that.
Condolences to his family but Count Novakula was a despicable, mean little man.
...if you disagree with them, which i did with this guy. Definitely not a fan and like this posting says, he will be remembered mostly for being the snake that published the identity of Valerie Plame as a a CIA operative. He never got the thrashing he deserved for it either.
Bush and his administration has never been prosecuted for their complete destruction of our country.
By the actions or lack of them by Obama /Emanuel Bush and his mob will never be prosecuted.
Just watch in the coming years Bush will receive the blessing he said and be praise for his criminal war and criminal actions in office..
Just who is this group ,, that are controlling our government...
None
and we can put this Kennedy assassination question to rest.
“Why would anyone with a functioning brain believe this guy?”

What about the complete destruction of Iraq and the 100,000s of Iraqis that perished?
Novak helped to enable that kind of horror. He provided the cover for the politicians.
...I don't have to honor the life of someone I consider a traitorous bastard. Him or any of his ilk. My only hope is that there is a hell for him to reside.
100s of thousands killed and maimed, the millions displaced, and suffering of generations to come, thanks to the lies and treason of this greasy little man.
Was one of the reasons Bush/Cheney/Rove were successful in having one of worst criminal administrations in history.
It also looks as if Obama , Emanuel , Pelosi , Reid and others will be the reason Bush and Cheney will never be prosecuted for their criminal actions. in having one of worst criminal administrations in history.

Look.. I was no fan of Bob Novak's lies while he was alive. I think he was a terrible apologist.
But let us not be everything the Right says we are. Let them be the people who malign the dead. Who leap up with fiendish glee to say someone got what they deserved.
Let us instead, please, as progressives and liberals, take a pause, consider his family, and wish the man a simple passing.
To me, that's the decent thing to do.
I'm not prepared to give Right Wing any more fodder to consider we're monsters.
All the Best folks. Rest Easy Mr. Novak.
Jack
but i am not ashamed to admit that when i heard of his passing, my partner and i engaged in an exuberant high five. the only people i feel for, in this hour, are those that he left behind. for his family, my deepest sympathy and peace be with you. as my mother often says, he is now in the "world of truth" where he will see things as they are, and perhaps, repent for all of the awful things he said and did.
It is something to be hoped for.
but I don't get this "never speak ill of the dead..". I'm not religious. I don't believe in god. We are judged by our actions while we are alive. Not what may or may not happen in some fantasy afterlife.
Hitler died today. You know, I wasn't a big fan of his policies but let's consider his family and wish the man well.
Ted Bundy died today. Although I never agreed with his actions, we should let the man die with some dignity. RIP
Jeez.
I didn't say no one should speak ill of the dead, I just said I don't. It's my personal belief that when someone dies whether it's Bundy or Hitler or Novack, they are no longer living and can do no more harm, but they have family who loved them and those people are hurting now. So I show any family the same respect people showed me when my father died. As I grew up I was taught to respect the dead and I do.
I get no particular feeling of justice or elation when someone dies. Their life has ended and nothing can be done to go back to change anything they did or said.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
The evil that men do lives on long after they are buried. The good is interred with their bones.
Novak's deeds will continue to do harm, like ripples in a sewer, regardless of the fact that he's dead.
"The evil men do lives on forever. The good is oft interred with their bones." "Julius Caesar," William Shakespeare
that's why I didn't put it in quotes.
up yourself.
Up yourself, buddy.
and I do understand you have that belief, but I feel that the evil that men (and women) do certainly lives on after they've died. It lives on in the pain and suffering of those still alive who were unfortunate enough to be subjected to their wrath.
I also believe that something *can* be done when their life has ended: speak the truth. I don't accept the notion that death somehow makes someone unaccountable.
I didn't mean to imply that death makes someone unaccountable, I just meant they had done whatever they did during life and those facts could not be changed after death. The man is dead and the facts of his life are what they are. Nothing can be done to undo what he did, but he can no longer continue to make things any worse.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
Totally agree. Just because he's dead doesn't mean he wasn't a dick when he was alive. Being dead doesn't make him any better.
Nor does it make him any worse.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
we don't know all of the other evil he has done.
reincarnates back into this world on a regular basis? Changing forms and identities every time? It's worth considering. If just even for entertainment.
Bob Novak comparable to Adolf Hitler, Ted Bundy.
Stay classy, Walrus.
I was about to say:Burn in Hell Motherfucker..but your point is well taken..and I'll take mine back.
I hope though Bobby, where ever you wind up you get what you deserve.

they can't have it both ways. Either we're bleeding heart liberals, falling over ourselves in our rush to forgive evil men, or we're not. I'm going with not.
We just happen to have a different definition of the word "evil"
I'd like to advise them I will be a monster right
quick if it comes to that.
What they really think is, we're a bunch of granola eating, Volvo driving wussies.
What we are is, just like them, also the sons and daughters of the men that landed at Normandy and Gaudalcanal (my father).
Somebody should have pointed that out about 8 years ago. Knuckles would have worked then while it's looking like it's going to take AR-15s now.
Kerry should have knocked some teeth out as well as
John Murtha and about 100 other people I saw bearing
the insults of "coward" and "un-American" without
so much as a wince. They allowed the situation to become what it has in order to protect their image of reasonable gentleman. There are some insults which preclude a gentlemanly response and I can think of none greater than un-American. Fascist and Hitler and socialist roll off the lips of the enemies of reason now as a foregone conclusion and the children of the "tyrants" are eating it up with a spoon and duct taping 30 round clips together. Joseph Goebbels owns
half the media and radio Rwanda is back on the air.
A few right hooks could have saved us. Win or lose
the line should have been already drawn.
Better the tree of liberty is watered with a few bloody noses than bullet wounds.
Lies need to be called lies. Not un-truths, not misrepresentations, not mis-speaking.
They are lies and at every turn should be refuted and disproved beyond a shadow of a doubt. And Novak was a liar. A dangerous and self serving liar of the first order.
I wish he had the opportunity to call me un-American to my face.
Buh-bye Bob, you urine stain on the fabric of civilization.
Death panels, birth certificates, fascist, commies, yellow cake,
WMDs..
Wow... children afraid of the boogey man and lined up to hear more.
You are OUT of rational arguments ditto heads.
Your arguments are "self evidently" laughably false.
Yea your working too hard and getting screwed at every turn but get the FACTS right and we can work together
to fix it. Figure out who really is screwing you.
Who really has you by the balls. It's not Obama and Pelosi.... Their balls are in the same squeeze as yours.
Who's got hands that big?
He jeopardized the lives of many by being a traitor to his country.
And brain cancer is usually painless, for those who wished him agony. I don't wish a painful death on anybody.
Disliked him from the first time I saw him on the McLaughlin group. Was certainly "full of" himself. Should also have been prosecuted for the Plame incident.
exactly!
Some stuff you can't make up!
we don't have to spend a whole lot of time with this dispicable man.
Not to jab a fork in some people, but,

Sad, but true (that I would think this, not that it really happened).
I have no sympathy at all for this sorry sack of shit. How many service people died because of his support for war criminals Bush and Cheney?
Isn't it enough that he outed a CIA agent and was never held accountable?
Good riddance. The world is a better place with him dead.
I'll celebrate with a cold beer, and hope there's a hell hot enough to burn your worthless soul.

That would be the day James Carville (admittedly a bit of a wanker at times) either (1) got under Novak's skin on CNN's 'Inside Politics,' or (2) Novak used a not particularly sharp exchange between the two as an alibi for walking of the set before Ed Henry could ask him about new evidence in the Valerie Plame case.
http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200508040004
Speaking of Novak's legacy, the BBC's online announcement of Novak's death began "Robert Novak, the conservative columnist who revealed the name of the CIA officer Valerie Plame, has died. . . "
At least the BBC didn't bury the lead.

Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"

...the dude looked like he was already dead for as long as I had seen him on TV.
I don't believe it is correct to say that Valerie Plame had no role in Joe Wilson going to Niger. My recollection, and this would not be based on Novak's reporting or the reporting of Judy whatever her name was at the NYT, is that his wife was asked to ask him to come into the CIA. Now, whether or not she initiated his selection or even discussed the Niger mission with him before those at the CIA did, is anyone's guess.
By the way, despite all the denials, the public record is that Cheney in fact asked the CIA to look into the phony Italian/Niger documents, and Joe Wilson was the product of Cheney's request. If you ask me, I bet it's even likely that Cheney approved Wilson for the role knowing what a good egg he was during the first Gulf invasion.
P.S: It now appears that all the kerfuffle over Valerie Plame had very little to do with Joe Wilson or even Valerie Plame (or, better, the outing of Valerie Plame had little to do with Joe Wilson). Rather, it seems that the reason they (they being the Bushco. cabal) outed her is, according to Sibel Edmonds, that some Turks, who do some of America's dirty work, were about to hire Brewster Jennings, which Plame "worked" for, and those within the US establishment had to let the Turks know that Brewster Jennings was a front for the CIA!
I am not holding my breath waiting for the MSM to report the real story behind Valerie Plame, Joe Wilson and the phony Niger documents, although I bet they all spring from the same well.

Novak dies and escapes earthly justice. Hopefully our legal system or another country's can administer justice to these 50 living war criminals before they go in front of their maker.

to never speak bad about the dead. He's dead ..... good.
...from Novak's passing; I had NO idea so many people actually listen to their mothers.
I had no choice.
In my case, I listened to my grandmother first and my father, who was a mortician and embalmer, second. I don't think anyone ever listened to my mother.
Because we often lived upstairs over the funeral home where my dad worked, I grew up around dead people and although my dad failed in so many ways as a father, he always showed and demanded great respect for the dead and for the family they left behind.

and that includes people from whom we try to distance ourselves. The person who should have been most considerate of Novakula's family was the douchebag himself. But guess what? It's pretty clear by his public behaviour that he felt they weren't important enough to consider his own legacy, as he was putting it together. They were his beard, to make him look like he was some kind of decent human being. He wasn't, and I am always enraged by a fraud.
We're humans and we'll vent, and some will say "We're better than this." No we're not. We're all human. Both 'sides,' the same.
