I thought his piece on Buchanan and Novak was really bitter in tone. It's become acceptable to beat up on Pat--he's done and said plenty to piss off plenty of people.

But Frum loses all credibility with me when he goes after Novak (a Jew, by the way) who happens to be the guy that who exposed Frum's book as a big lie.

Novak (a Jew, by the way)

Really? I honestly thought I heard him refer to himself as someone of Arab descent, with no religious affiliation.

Pat and his bittercon brethren have been launching ad hominem attacks adn smears for over a decade. That does not excuse Frum's attack, but context is neccesary.

PS. Robert Novak converted to Christianity. I believe that he is now a pre-Vatican I Catholic. (Does that mean that mean that he is forgiven Christ-killer?)
