From Bob Novak's Q&A with the New York Times Magazine:

NYT: Your betrayal of [Valerie Plame's] identity appalled not only Democrats but also some of your former conservative friends, like Bill Kristol, the editor of The Weekly Standard, who called your conduct reprehensible. Did that sting on a personal level?

Novak: I think it did. I really enjoyed Bill's company, but Bill is an ideologue, much more than I am, and I think it was very hard for him to maintain a relationship with me when I took positions on the Iraq war and on the Middle East which were so far different from his.

Isn't Novak calling someone an "ideologue" a bit like Dick Cheney calling someone "secretive"?
