Update <2005-8-4 17:37:55 by Armando>: By Armando. Of the 8 million diaries, this one had the most comments. Will link to C&L in a moment. The diary was edited for style, such as it is.

I was just listening to CNN and Novak is blathering about Katherine Harris running for senate - James Carville said something about how Novak was posturing to look tough for the right, and Novak got really blustery and said - "I think that's bullshit. Change the subject." Very quickly, the subject moved on. It looked like Novak was ready to bolt from his chair just before he said it was bullshit. Swearing on the air! The FCC better get all over this.

Update <2005-8-4 17:1:47 by Dave Brown>: Novak bolted the set.

BREAKING: Novak Takes His Lack of Balls and Goes Home


Screenshot of the Douchebag Diva doing his thing.

Clips, again, is here. Storm begins with the dropping of the barnyard epithet at minute 3:07.

UPDATE: Media Matters also has the clip.

UPDATE: Moved the rough transcript after the jump. Off topic but we can't resist wondering about this comment from Novak:

a lot of my trouble in the world is they've doctored my makeup and the colorrized me in a lot of newspapers on my picture. i sympathize with her.
Bob Novak's image problems come from people Photoshopping him? Really? Not from the whole "ratting out my sources and shilling for the administration" thing? Really?

UPDATE: Does this mean that MSNBC will give Novak his own show?

BREAKING: Novak No-Show
Bob Novak apparently just walked off the CNN stage, yelling "This is bullshit!"

Drudge's account says that it's because host Ed Henry was going to ask about the Plame investigation, but emailers say the current topic was -- of all things -- Katherine Harris's make-up:

Novak, while addressing Katherine Harris' "makeup-gate", became visably upset at interuptions from Carville, said "This is bullshit" and then stormed off of the stage of CNN's "Inside Politics".
Well, you know, that's a sensitive issue for him. It takes a lot of make-up to cover the scales.

UPDATE: We just saw the clip. It's here. http://mms.tveyes.com/MediaDownload.asp?MDID=13550&MDS=1654 "Bullshit" comes through loud and fucking clear, and it is actually definitely in reference to Carville yakking. Maybe the mere thought of being asked about the Plame thing got him rattled. Please note who hasn't wanted to tell Carville he's full of shit?

BOB NOVAK WALKS OFF CNN LIVE 'THAT IS BULL*HIT'... Was on with Carville talking Katherine Harris make-up... Host Ed Henry ended segment by telling viewers he had told Novak in advance he would ask him about the CIA leak case. Henry said CNN hoped to get Novak to answer such questions in future...

Senile old man buckling from pressure.

[tishaLA]

5. Way to go Mr. Brock!

LOL. I love how uncomfortable the host looked when old Bobby walked off.

[Poiuyt]

6. I can't figure out what Carville said that was so bad

It sounded like they were teasing each other to me.

[ihaveaquestion]

36. *** DoveTurnedHawk in another thread figured out what Carville said ***

"He's gotta show these right-wingers that he's got backbone, you know, it's like the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board is watchin' you, show 'em you're tough."

[AllyCat]

43. But it was just a good-natured ribbing! He was chuckling and looking at

the host and NoFacts when he said it.

[AllyCat]

Carville was clearly having a bit of fun. It appeared good-natured

and genuine. But I forget that RWers think they know everything and are above hilarity. :dunce:

Well, thanks NoFacts for making my day. That was a classic piece of work on your part and the Librul media made your little temper-tantrum even more remarkable by continuing on without you.

Way, way funny!!! :freak:

[Donailin]

7. novak totally slurring his words!!

WTF???? How freakin bizarre. I think he's medicated to the gills. Can't imagine why!

[AllyCat]

42. I could barely understand him.

But I rarely listen to NoFacts. Is that unusual speech for him?

[rfranklin]

84. Keep that drunken old coot on CNN, he's a great example of...

Republican assholism.

[Maru Kitteh]

103. Actually I think he's in the early onset of some dementia, probably

Alzheimers. That's my guess.

Sure wish I could feel sorry for him............. NOT.

[MadisonProgressive]

98. I've heard him (too) many times and He was ON SOMETHING!

Either drunk or heavily medicated.

[Wizard777]

111. Looks Like he's been on Rush Limpball's Show one too many times. n/t

[edbermac]

8. Way to go MM...

Sounds like Bob swallowed a bad olive during his martini lunchtime...

[William769]

9. I love that!

Thanks for the link. Gotta love Carville.

[achtung_circus]

10. I was watching the FR thread on this.

I refreshed and it had been pulled FOR LANGUAGE.

Jeebus, what's a bullshit or 2 between fiends (sic).

11. Its a beautiful day to be an American...nt

[Libby2]

12. Thank you !! n/t

[SeattleGirl]

13. That was hilarious!!

Stomping off like a petulant child! What was really funny was Carville and the other dude just going on with the show. I know Randi is saying that the "news" channel did not report the "news" that just happened on the show, but actually, I think their non-reaction was one of the best parts of the video!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[marylanddem]

27. yes, totally funny the way they went on as Novakula

fled to his cave. loved the way Carville kept smiling.

[SeattleGirl]

54. I know, that was so damned funny!

I wish I could have seen the host's face, but Carville was definitely looking amused, even while he continued taking about the Florida senate race. I'm still chuckling over this one! :rofl:

[jbnow]

28. They said he'd been warned ahead of time

that he would be asked about the CIA Plame case and that's must be why he left. Don't know if that part is in this clip.

Having speaker problems so didn't watch this video but had turned on CNN, evidently soon after he had left. I thought he must have slipped out during an ad, didn't know he left in air. Maybe I will watch it without sound for the joy of seeing him leave. Hope he won't come back.

[SeattleGirl]

52. He was given a heads up

But at the time of the "potty mouth" remark and the walk off, I think they were still talking about the Florida senate race. Maybe Novakula was just doing a pre-emptive strike!

[SillyGoose]

14. hahaha!

:rofl:

priceless

[immoderate]

15. Isn't there a $500,000 fine for that?

What happened to their delay?

****Calling Howard Stern*****

ROFL!

And Carville just keeps on going like nothing happened.

Oh TV, you crack me up!

25. What a big baby!

What a frickin' wuss.

The pressure of his eventual jail time must be getting to him.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

32. You just KNOW that The Daily Show will have a little fun with this clip.

Hope it makes it on tonight's show.

Nonuts slurring, cussing and walking out - in 10 short seconds that a$$wipe has shown exactly what the repug party is today.

[jane_pippin]

34. Don't be disappointed if it's not on tonight, though I pray they made it

in time. I think they (TDS) is taping now, so it's cutting it close.

[Beaverhausen]

Maybe at least the "moment of zen"

Ooh- my boyfriend bought "Indecision 2004" and watched a bit already. Said it's hilarious. I can't wait to see it!

[DoYouEverWonder]

26. Wish I could figure out

what Carville said that pushed his buttons? Anyone get a translation?

[Beaverhausen]

30. here it is from another thread

http://thinkprogress.org/2005/08/04/breaking-novak-expl... /
Breaking: Novak Explodes Live on CNN

Just now on CNN’s Inside Politics:

Novak: Just let me finish what I’m going to say James, please I know you hate to hear me —

Carville: You got to show these right-wingers that he’s got a back bone, ya know? Wall Street Journal editorial page is watching. Show them you’re tough.

Novak: I think it’s bullshit. And I hate that. Just let it go.

Novak removes his microphone and walks off the set.

[DoYouEverWonder]

37. Wall Street Journal editorial page is watching.

that was the part I couldn't figure out.

Thanks.

[jackstraw45]

29. Sounded drunk..slurring speech.

Should NEVER be on CNN again.

I'm sure Faux will hire him though...

[julialnyc]

31. faux can have him!

N/T

[Donailin]

40. I just posted that too

he's definitely intoxicated. Must be keeping his conscience from getting the better of him. Nah, that ain't it. He's drunk because he knows he's in big fucking trouble. I would not be surprised if he suicides himself.

[Solar]

112. He had to have been drunk...

...no doubt about it.

[blondeatlast]

63. And looked it, too... could be meds, he's under a wee bit o'stress. nt

[eissa]

33. I loved how

they continued and didn't even acknowledge his departure. What an ass!

[Cats Against Frist]

35. That. Was. Awesome.

I'm speechless. This is a clear "dish it out, but can't take it," situation. For those who think we should't get tough with pukes -- if we treat them, like they treat us, they run scared with their tails between their legs.

:rofl:

[DoYouEverWonder]

38. That's what bullies always do

and I'm sick of bullies. It's time to call these assholes on their shit.

[cal04]

39. What a jerk./pics

[Shakespeare]

41. I love the way Carville and the other guy NEVER EVEN LOOKED UP

Didn't stop talking, didn't look up when he left. Just totally ignored his little snit. God, that was hilarious.

[blondeatlast]

64. Didn't miss a beat. That's quality! nt

[FreeStateDemocrat]

80. Almost looks like a setup, rating will go up, see if Carville apologizes

I am becoming totally cynical about corporate news media and the sideshow that is presented as news.

[tuvor]

44. Someone call Novak a whaaaaambulance!

[Beaverhausen]

49. LOL!!!

[Dude_CalmDown]

61. E-mailing that pic to NoFacts. Thanks. n/t

45. YES!

Video of the Month!

[wicket]

46. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[yorkiemommie1]

48. typical bully behavior

just as other posters have said. ' i'm going to pick up my marbles and go home '. he couldn't spin things the way he wanted so he left.

:nopity: all bullies are crybabies, we know that.

[blondeatlast]

50. anyone got an alternate link? It's loading only partway for me,

then shutting that Explorer section. thanks--I GOTTA see this!

[tinrobot]

56. Crooks and Liars has it now

http://www.crooksandliars.com/

[blondeatlast]

57. Thanks, MMA worked this time. nt

[gratuitous]

51. Watched the video

I honestly have no idea from the direct antecedent to Novak stripping off his microphone and walking out what he was so upset about. The three men were talking about the prospects of the Florida senate race between Bill (?) Nelson and Katherine Harris. Novak was making some crapulous point about how Ronald Reagan was not the darling of the Republican establishment, how Tom Coburn, idiot extraordinaire of Oklahoma isn't liked by the Republican establishment, and how Carville shouldn't count Harris out.

Carville made a joking reference to how Novak had to show off for the Wall Street Journal editorial page that he had some backbone. Carville was chuckling at his own little joke, when Novak pronounced it bullshit, stood up, took off his microphone, and walked away from the set. The host continued to ask a question of Carville, and the two men tried to act as if nothing had happened.

Novak looked like a big baby.

[YDogg]

55. Beautiful!

And Santorum practically flipping out the same day. Priceless.

[ConfuZed]

58. I love how they went on talking when he left

[lonestarnot]

79. Me too! and when was this birdie photo taken? Haven't seen

it before.

[mike_c]

59. Made. My. Day.

"That's bullshit. Just let it go."

WAAAAHHHHHHHH!

:rofl:

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

60. Jeez... first a traitor and now a world-class wuss

No guts, no integrity, no shame.

You're a coward, Mister Novak. I spit on you.

[Ready4Change]

62. Seems to lack the sense of humor...

Novak seems to lack the sense of humor that conservatives always claim liberals don't have.

What's'a'matter? Can't handle a little pointed ribbing?

OR: Are you fully aware you are about to get royally grilled regarding Plame, and you've picked this as your excuse to tuck and run?

Either way, he acted like a coward who can't stand behind his own words and actions.

[Broken_Hero]

68. ha, to funny...

And i though RW nut jobs were tough? Old man can't take the heat, he should quit his damn job.

[Nimble_Idea]

69. LOLOLOLOLOL

too funny

[MattP]

73. No fine

There is no FCC fine because it's cable, but I do hope they fire his ass.

[cynatnite]

71. He sounded loaded

:rofl: That was effin' great!

[Politicub]

72. What a crackpot!

Hilarious! These bullies can dish it out but they sure can't take it.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[lonestarnot]

74. 100K Fine to CNN for profanity used on air! LOL

Pass it on to the hack!

[liberaliraqvet26]

100. That doesn't apply to cable

only reg tv

[Halliburton]

75. He's stressed out over Plame

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

76. Well, that was about as mature a reaction

as I expected from Novakula. Oy. Someone remind me again why he isn't in jail?

[tavalon]

86. Seriously?

Because he talked. Unfortunately, they may have given him immunity.

[Patsy Stone]

90. I should have mentioned it was a rhetorical question.

But yeah, I know. They all suck. Thanks, though.

[LVdem]

78. Watch out...HE'S GONNA BLOW...nt

[still_one]

81. you have to admit James Carville was a class act through this

CNN should fire Novaks ass

[ktowntennesseedem]

82. CNN.COM has a video link on their homepage.

27 second clip. I can't watch, still at work. Anybody that can check it out for me? I'd love to see what they are saying about their own loser, and see how they are covering the news (and their collective ass!)

[ktowntennesseedem]

83. And on MSNBC, Novac has been "suspended" by CNN!

I'll try to post a link in a minute!

Here is is:

<http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8830305/>

[Carolab]

101. Rate it up!!!! n/t

[Bucky]

85. Just for the record, I am laughing WITH Novak and not AT him. So...

"Haw - haw!"

[tavalon]

87. Well, I think you're pretty much the only one

I'm laughing directly at him. :rofl:

[Redneck Socialist]

88. NPR reporting Novak suspended from CNN

Sorry no link, but I almost drove off the road I was laughing so hard when I heard the story.

After watching the video I can't figure out what set him off. What a douche bag.

[Strelnikov_]

91. He's A Graduate Of The Bolton School Of Conflict Management

They are as touchy as nitro.

[Oilwellian]

96. Or.....

A graduate of the "Boltin' School." What a titty baby.

:rofl:

[SW FL Dem]

89. Absolutely Priceless!!!!

I usually watch the show, sorry I missed it today.

[JRob]

93. Novak's gutter scum and belongs in prison. I hope they fry his ass.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

95. According to the MSNBC article, “

We’ve asked Mr. Novak to take some time off."

How about a permanent vacation?

[JRob]

107. works for me... I can't even stand the sound of his voice.

[Pilotguy]

94. Novak must have been drunk...

In reading the transcript, it is apparent Novak was making even less sense than usual and sounded a little paranoid.

NOVAK: No, but I've had the same experience that she did. A lot of my trouble in the world is that they've doctored my make-up and colorized me in a lot of newspapers on my picture. So, I sympathize with her.

A lot of his troubles are caused by doctored photos? I don't think so.

[Junkdrawer]

97. Kick and reccommended...

[ignatius 2]

99. Good God, the man was loaded and practically incoherent. He is

hanging with Limpballs too much these days. I thnik the thought of orange jumpsuits and roomates named Bubba are too much for him, he is cracking big time!

[Initech]

102. Wow, just................. wow.

I saw that clip about ten times, it's just completely unbelievable.

[volitionx]

104. SWEEEEEEEEET!

Novak sounds drunk as a skunk, Carville is the Ragin' Cajun, and doesn't lose a beat when NoSack swears, stands up, and walks off.

And the moderator just keeps on going, nobody acting like anything happened!

Bwaaa-fucking-haa haa haa!!!!!!!

:spray:

[symbolman]

105. Takebackthemedia.com filed Assault charges on Novak Jan 27th Here's Video

Here's the Scoop:

Takebackthemedia.com was in New Hampshire covering the Primaries and we were involved when Novak assaulted a man there

**************************************************************

Wow. He's lost it again - just saw the footage on CNN and we at Takebackthemedia.com are NOT surprised. Novak has actually ATTACKED people before and then Lied about what happened to the Washington Post - We know, we were THERE when it happened, I actually caught Brad Carr, the man who was assaulted by Novak.


Watch the video here: http://web.takebackthemedia.com/geeklog/public_html/staticpages/index.php?page=20050805004552146


Here's what we posted back in January 2004 about the assault.


***********************************


A Take Back the Media SCOOP - Novak savagely attacks onlooker at New Hampshire Primaries.


From Takebackthemedia.com on January 27th, 2004 --


CNN has created massive coverage of the New Hampshire Primaries - bringing with them on their gaudy Election 2004 bus a host of their news anchors, including one Robert Novak - who is most well known for his obfuscating on CROSSFIRE.


Remember Robert Novak? He's the source of the Valerie Plame CIA outing in the media and has never been called to task for what appears to be a rather substantial breaking of Federal LAW.


As of this date, for nearly 100 days no one in this administration has wanted to touch this - for apparently someone high in the Bush administration has to have passed this information along to Novak, and whoever did that may be culpable legally as well.


It looks like there is some movement in that direction - a Grand Jury is being empaneled for this purpose. To me if looks like Novak is screwed either way. If he tells WHO gave him that information - he has no credibility - if he DOESN'T talk, he may be jailed. He may be jailed anyway - as I understand it (and I am not a lawyer) this is a CRIME.


So it would make sense that Novak is worried - perhaps to the point of losing his cool or his mind - which he did on January 27 outside of the Merrick Restaurant at about 5:15 pm. I was there, I saw it - I even caught the guy that Novak attacked.


I can't get the image out of my mind. Novak looked like a little caged animal - fist locked and *censored*ed back, he wasn't through with his victim before getting hustled off and onto the bus.


How did we get to this moment?

[Swamp Rat]

106. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[ObaMania]

108. I get the video but no sound...

.. on all feeds.

Anyone else have that problem?

[bridgit]

109. it's time to start dragging them all into the daylight...

novak is never less than shitty, pissy & mean spirited & i'm long since tired of he & his cronies hiding behind their pens & snide, bombastic comments fuck him!!

[kiki]

110. Waaah

Baby want attention. Baby throw rattle out of pram. Waaah.

[lonestarnot]

114. I never dreamed I would ever say

Novakula you made my week much brighter!:evilgrin:
