Tony Snow Remembered

So sad to hear the news that conservative commentator and former Bush (43) White House Press Secretary, Tony Snow, has died.

Snow was a throw-back conservative that was a steward to the now long abandoned Republican principles of limited government and preservation of individual liberty.

An amiable and folksy gentlemen, reminiscent - to me, at least - of President Reagan, Snow was the kind of guy that you would disagree with entirely and even if he told you to go to hell (which he would not), you'd still walk away from the conversation feeling good.

Such a shame that we lose Tony Snow and Tim Russert in such quick succession, and at such a young age.

It just doesn't seem fair.

Especially when DICK Cheney's pacemaker keeps on ticking.
