I offer a Robert Novak anecdote.

Back around 1984, I watched a segment of the CNN talk show, “Crossfire,” with Novak speaking from the Right and Tom Braden speaking from the Left. The subject was the Middle East. Novak at one point in the show referred to Yassir Arafat and his fellow “Palestinian freedom fighters.” I was stunned. “Freedom fighters!” That’s a new one. The segment might be on YouTube or some other site.

Facebook sends me sources I never knew existed, but which do often produce thought provoking interactions. Abramoff and Novak were semitic, and so for
that matter are the arabs last time I looked.. Why they were allowed to persist in the first case being a crook and the second a nasty disagreeable churl for the sole reason they might have been critical of leftists is regrettable. Buchanan though a Wasp has lost most of his conservative creds long ago. Norquist I hadn’t connected but, frankly, why would any Swede court a Muslim skank anyway? Apart from complexions the Swedes are as unpassionate and freewheeling as the Arabics are dogmatic and narrowminded…Sooo sorry to stereotype…NOT.

Calling Bod Grant a “failed New York radio host” is like calling the Wright Brothers failed aviators. I’ve listened to Grant for 30 years and he’s always been a staunch supporter of Isreal and the Jewish people.

Julie, I bet dollars to donuts they deleted your comment over at National Review. William F. Buckley’s flagship magazine saw better days. No more.

Bob has a long history of being nasty to his own fans. He used to scream at me and I stopped listening to him for a long time because of that. As for Novak, I wrote a letter to National Review telling them they should think of Novak’s odious history of anti-Semitism.

The show blew me away. I’ve been a fan of Bob’s and I must admit, you had him on the ropes with Bob Novak’s antisemitism.
As a loyal Bob Grant fan, I won’t change my feelings about Bob.
He has his opinions and took heat many times for it. I respect your opinions as well. You more than made your point about Mr. Novak. Although I can’t mend fences between you & Bob, I’ll respect both your opinions equally as long as they don’t conflict with mine. See, even I can be disagreeable about some things. It’s human nature.

Bob Grant had his time in the 1970′s when he was fun to listen to. Not any more. He really should just plain retire.
