Who really cares that Novak said "Bullshit" on TV?
Let's not get distracted from the real issue here....that Novak was simply being overly dramatic so that he wouldn't have to face questions about his traitorous behavior. He ran away like the coward he is...this is what we should be focusing on.

Don't write CNN and complain about the cussing...complain about how they are still employing such a sniveling cowardly traitor.

11. I don't disagree with your decision to not disagree with the OP.
In short, I agree.

2. Why Ignore One Fault When You Can Complain About Two?
Tell them he is a traitorous coward at the same time you tell them how incensed you are about his language on a channel you use to educate your young children in the ways of civic pride.

4. Plus if we run him broke he won't be able to afford lawyers.
Maybe he can get a big fine for this.

12. Bingo
And besides, let's get with the times here. Profanity on the air is considered more outrageous these days than treason. Sad as that is.

3. He's got it coming!
After the Jackson boob thing, and the ignoring of Cheney's f--you to Sen. Leahy, we don't need to let another bit of crassness slide down the memory tube. They didn't with Jackson.

7. well, he can't be fined for being an asshole, but he can for saying
bullshit. One warps the the mind of all who come in contact with it. The other is a big no-no (because my government says it is).

Let's nail him for all of it. And smile while we're doing it.

:think:

9. Hi, slutticus
:hi: Had any good beer lately?

It's just funny is all. Especially since Santorum had a little meltdown today, too.

10. Sorry to disagree. CNN doesn't CARE that they are employing a traitor
Have any emails or protestations gotten him off the air yet? They don't care. On the other hand, telling them that your 5 year old is permanently scarred because of hearing such filth seems to get attention in today's America.

15. I suppose from a practical view that is the route to go.
But I just wouldn't feel comfortable complaining about something that didn't bother me personally. Then again...I don't have a child that was watching...so maybe I would feel differently in that instance.

It's a really sad state of affairs in this country that something like the word "bullshit" is so much more serious that being a cowardly traitor. But you are right...they DON"T CARE that he's a coward. Maybe they will now since he made it so freaking obvious today.

I was just curious as to how many DUers were genuinely upset by the word itself.

13. I care!!
I do not want to hear news anchors and commentators swearing on TV. If this was DAN RATHER on TV.....the Repukes would be crying bloody murder.

Get this stupid old creep off the TV. I for one am sick and tired of him!

17. It is not a matter of whether you care or not
it is time to adopt some of their tactics... this means this is how they fight the culture war. Hence you call them on the bullshit and you do it the same way they do it, public shame.

Is it far less important than oh I don't know the war in Iraq? Yes... but this is how the right got where they are... so sharpen your pencil and feign caring... mann the barricades.

18. Well, bulls, obviously
they just suffered the indignity of having their excretory products associated with the even stinkier and gooier Nofacts. :puke:
