Columnist Robert Novak was diagnosed with a brain tumor on Sunday and admitted to a Boston hospital.

“On Sunday, July 27, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I have been admitted to Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, where doctors will soon begin appropriate treatment. I will be suspending my journalistic work for an indefinite but, God willing, not too lengthy period," Novak, 77, said in a statement to his publisher, according to HumanEvents.com.

Prayers to Mr. Novak.  The DUmp must be in full orgasm over this.  :censored:

Prayers to him on a speedy recovery. It is unfortuneate however that since Ted Kennedy had discovered his own turmor and the hospitalization it brought on that the Dumpmonkies won't be showing alot of sympathy for Novak that most of us showed Kennedy while he was down.

Kennedy is a murderer, or , at a minimum, an accessory to murder. Novak, to my knowledge, seems to have led a pretty honest and sober life. Therein lies the difference.

Prayers for Mr. Novak and his family.

He sometimes wobbled off what I would call message, but his optimism and humor were never flagging.

The accident could have made the ability to drive. My Dad died of brain tumors (aMONG OTHER THINGS) and he had motor control problems tward the end.

I did n otice Mr. Novak seemed to have more symparthy for the liberal position of late, perhaps the tumopr sxplains it.

Anyway, all the best for him on the outcome of his treatment, and hope his winning personality is restored to its old attitude.
