I haven’t been keeping up with all of the big events lately as well as I’d like to… the energy thing has taken on a life of its own.

You probably already know that Robert Novak has announced his immediate retirement after diagnosis of a brain tumor.

This is not a death notice, but feels like one with the situation he is experiencing.  Novak has been another strong leader in moving conservative values forward.  It is sad to see his voice silenced on the political scene.

I hope and pray that the treatment is successful, and that he has continued opportunity to share his wisdom on matters of concern to our nation.
