Regarding a previous incident where Novak screamed obscenities at a pedestrian:

Novak explained to the paper: "He was crossing on the red light. I really hate jaywalkers. I despise them. Since I don't run the country, all I can do is yell at 'em. The other option is to run 'em over, but as a compassionate conservative, I would never do that."

Uh-huh. He should have added "but if I do run one over in the future, I am outta there! My compassion goes only so far."
