No vote this time.  Just prayers ascending for the repose of his soul and for his family and loved ones to sense and feel God's care and comfort.  May they be surrounded by much love and concern in these difficult days.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Since he just passed away, I abstain from vote or comment

[Landslide Lyndon]

Despite our ideological differences, I always enjoyed his pieces.

It's no coincidence that he was Kos' favorite conservative columnist. His unique mix of inside scoop and opinions was very effective. Too bad that he stained his career with the Plame Affair, and he refused to apologize for it.

Outted Valarie Plame says something about the type of person he was.

I send out my condolesces to his loved ones, but he wasn't a nice guy.

That sucks. I shall also abstain from voting until a more appropriate time.

We can also thank Novak for the doomed campaign of George "Acid, amnesty, and abortion" McGovern.

Overall FF. I get a lot of slack for posting on a certain website but I scolded some posters for attacking him because of his background. He was on the same page as Paul and Buchanan on many issues and was even accused of being an anti-semitic for standing up against Israel.

I'd say it's a tad bit tasteless to make a poll about him considering that he just passed away.  I will say that I admired him and always enjoyed his commentary on FOX.

My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family.

Not saying this means anything about Novak, he was a very good columnist.  But if Hitler had died in the information age, there'd probably be somebody posting about how our lack of respect or mourning would be tasteless.

Still, he's dead. I'll label him an asshole HP later.

[Eraserhead]

Definitely a pretty horrible person but he was amusing to watch at times.

[Lief 🗽]

Badass.

^^^^^^^
Main reason that I hate him.

[Ronnie]

I did not especially like him.

Still, RIP.
