Robert Novak, CNN commentator and Douchebag of Liberty, became enraged on Thursday’s episode of Inside Politics<\/em>. After James Carville lightheartedly suggested that Novak was, “…trying to show these right-wingers that he’s got backbone,”<\/em> Novak belched out that he thought that was “bullshit,”<\/em> and then stomped off the set.<\/p>\n

From my vantage point, it cannot be reasonably deduced that anything Carville said could have provoked Novak’s response. These guys mix it up much more aggressively than that on a regular basis. The explanation for Novak’s tantrum may lie in the comment made by host, Ed Henry, at the close of the show. Henry said that Novak was told that he would be asked about the CIA leak\/Plame affair. Novak may have seized on this exchange in order to have an excuse to duck out before the Plame segment. <\/p>\n

So how is the media handling this? If you visit CNN.com, which recently launched its video search feature to great fanfare<\/a>, you can search for “Novak,”<\/em> and get a link to the clip. But if you click on the link, all you will get is this:

\nAs usual, the only constructive presentation of this event in the media was on the fake<\/em> news program, “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.”<\/em> Thank God for fake news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
