NH citizen gets under Novakula's skin....
source

Just got off the phone with Symbolman - he was outside the Merrimac Restaurant in Manchester, NH where CNN is broadcasting, and he said things got a bit testy when Bob Novak came out of the restaurant, heading for the CNN bus.

Apparently, someone from the crowd got on Novak's case, calling him a traitor a few times. Novak went ballistic - Sym decribed it as a 'Lee Harvey Oswald moment' - and went over and shoved the guy, sending him sprawling.

TBTM might - might - have gotten it on videotape. Stay tuned.

More: Sym said that the guy is considering pressing assault charges. He told me that Novak really lit into him and the guy went flying - and he said the guy wasn't a little guy. Sym was standing behind the guy and caught him as he hurtled backward.

Sym got into an argument with Tucker Carlson about it afterward, and Tucker reportedly told him to 'Get over it' because Novak 'is an old man.' The guy who got pushed waited outside the bus for an apology, and Novak went into the bus and closed the door, refusing to come out.

Brad - the man who got shoved - was glad he got a reaction, because in his view, 'The guy is dirty - he knows he did something wrong,' referring to the Valerie Plame leak story.

Developing.... more details, if they come in, will be on TBTM.

Contact CNN. Ask them why, if it's so bad for a presidential candidate like Howard Dean to be angry, is it okay to have such an angry man on their payroll?

Update,9:23 PM: Brad Carr, the victim of the attack, has filed a criminal assault complaint against Novak.

<NV1962's comment:>
Ha! Novak the CIA agent leaker and Novak the HackGate leaker, now striking out a third? Teehee! Spread the meme, spread the meme! Bob Novak is an angry man who's out of control! Novakula out out out!

3. Sounds like someone touched a nerve doesn't it? Wonder if he would
have to reveal his source and what was said to prove he wasn't a traitor? I know, I know, a fellow can still dream.

4. Novak hides in the bus like the traitorous coward he is!
I bet he even locked himself in the bathroom, too!

5. Fabulous News
Thanks for the reports NV1962... Really its so predictable that Novakula would respond like this. Hope this story gets some legs in the mainstream press (not holding breath).

6. Brad should
file a civil suit as well. Lock Novak up for assault, then hit 'em where it really hurts, the bank account.

7. good!
I'm glad the guy who Novak assaulted has filed a criminal assault complaint, Novak needs to be held accountable! Funny how the right-wing rags like the NYpost were flipping out the other day about Al Franken's alleged assault at a Dean rally, but not a peep about this.
