Yesterday, we found out that Novakula got punk'd. Today, we find out he got busted:

Journalist Robert Novak hit a pedestrian with his car in the nation's capital Wednesday morning, Washington police Lt. Michael Lockerman said.

Novak continued driving, unaware he had hit the man, he told told reporters for WJLA-TV and the Web site Politico as he got out of a police car.

Wowzers, kids, he's nearly as confused as John Sidney McAddled!

"I didn't know I hit anybody," he said near the scene of the incident at 17th and K streets in northwest Washington. "A bicycle rider stopped me and said I had hit someone."

Wait. He hit a person with his car, and had to be told? No wonder he got punk'd yesterday. He has absolutely no idea what he's doing.

Novak said he was cited for failure to yield right of way.

"I feel terrible," said the journalist, a long-time Washington insider who works as a syndicated columnist.*

Why am I surprised? Accuracy has never been one of his strong suits.

*The pedestrian was "clipped" and has a hurt shoulder.
