Tony Snow.......RIP

[bosten]

we've lost another awesome reporter always after the truth & was always right on target.....Tony Snow.
After just reading the Associated Press obit & L.A.Times obit on Tony Snow,i was shocked by the far left's attempt to bash this man
& disrespecting Tony Snow's rep.
Let the man rest in peace & have respect for his grieving family.
Just because he worked for Bush dosent mean he has to be bashed.
one of the write-ins in the LA Times compared Tony Snow to a nazi !!!!
come on,,,,,,hey,Tim Russert didnt get bashed from the left or the right.
Tony Snow deserves the same respect from the far left loones out there.

Please define "far left" and who in particular did the bashing.
"Far left"! I just love slogans.

Or maybe it does, at least until he writes his own [i]mea culpa[/i], like his predecessor. Do you think he finished the book before his death? Oh, forget that.... how do you think Snow was selected for the job in the first place. Right on-- because of his "fair and balanced" reporting!

Don't get all bent out of shape. Joe Blow just wants to spit out some vitriol and insult a dead man, but we all know blindly calling him a "nazi" simply doesn't make it so, just like calling yourself "fair and balanced" doesn't make it so, either.

There's probably a good reason for that.

I could be wrong here, but I've got a feeling that, in his time, Mr. Snow did some bashing of some of those far left "loones" of his own.
Just curious: is loones somewhere between domeengo and martays?


Thanks for listening, everybody. I just wanted to practice some cutting and pasting. I think I did pretty well.

BigBri,,here's some of those far left loones quotes from the LA Times obit for Mr.Snow....

20. One less evil, lying, greedy, destructive, treasonous, religous nut-bar member of the Republican Party! It's a great day at my house.

96. Why would I honor the lying scum-bag that Tony Snow was just because he has died? I felt sorry for the family when he was alive to have to live with such a tool.

141. Because there obviously is no god, nor heaven and hell, I've always adhered to the idea that if you are saddned by the deaths of your friends and family, you should equally be gladdened by the deaths of people you hate. Tony Snow was a professional liar and willing member of the most notorious administration in this country's history. I didn't know him personally, but professionally he was a BS artist extraordinaire. This was the best cancer since Lee Atwater's brain tumor.

131. I definitely feel sorry for his children and wife. But TOny Snow did while he was at FOX and Whitehouse can't be forgiven. These Republicans are criminals and the democrats who voted for this war including. I don't feel sorry him. I think it is time for redemption. Most of us deserve the worst possible punishment for our arrogance and the crimes we committed in the name of liberty,justice and other BS on the rest of the world. THis country runs based on Greed. America is committed to destroying other religions and cultures in the world and make world into an absolute trash.

BigBri....this is why the far left/liberals are soooo off base...


56. Let me understand the Angry Liberal Message of 2008: Angry Liberal - Bush is a fascist, nazi, war-mongering, fundamentalist chrisitan, neo-com, halliburton suporter, satanic, murderous liar. Conservatives hate everyone that is not christian and they only support the top 1% of the nation. No blood for oil! Bush lied, Kids Died! IMPEACH BUSH! Did I get it right Liberals? Continue running on this platform...it will give us Proud Americans 8 great years of McCain!

68. You know, from the posts here, it's so apparent that the left in this country is morally bankrupt. On a thread about an honorable man's passing, post after post by idiots who have no idea what honor, truth, and civility mean. They just hate. And not ideas--they hate individuals. Rove, Bush, Snow, Rush, Rice, Cheney, Rumsfeld, the list is endless--they're all evil. They have to be. Because liberal ideas seem to never survive a real debate based on the facts, there must be some giant conspiracy by Republicans to "trick people" into voting for them. Sad. Sick. And predictable.

Georgie, could you at least TRY to act like another poster? Or are you only "bosten" when you are posting from your other house?

So bosten/whoever you are, you cut and paste the postings of a number of Joe Americans with an internet connection, who can spout angry hyperbole under the safe cover of internet anonymity. These are people who wouldn't dare place their name on a newspaper by-line or get on TV and repeat the same crap (well, ok, except if your name is "Ann Coulter").

Other than providing a mild chuckle, these mostly unintelligent opinions mean nothing to me.

I had thought you were referring to bona fide [i]journalists[/i], you know, like those who write for the NY Times or Washington Post. Any of them call Snow a Nazi?

Wait a minute.

Bona fide journalists writing for the NY Times...

When did this start?

Ok, I'll bite.

How you feel about Tony Snow's death is going to depend on your political viewpoint and your feelings toward the bush administration. I feel sorry for Tony's family and their loss, but that doesn't change my opinion of the guy: Snow was a professional spin-doctor, a shameless prevaricator and consummate liar. Maybe on a personal level he was a great family guy who saved kittens from trees and played a nimble game of squash-- who knows? Or maybe his professional life is more accurate-- his arch-conservative bluster and audacity to get in front of the white house press corp every day and mislead the world with talking points and disinformation-- maybe that is how he would prefer to be remembered, because he was really, really good at that. The press didn't know what to do with that, and I guess that is to Tony's credit (and our detriment).

Russert is a tougher call. I only started watching some of the Sunday talking heads during the bush administration, and during this time I was thoroughly unimpressed with the way he would let his guests off the hook. It's probably not a coincidence that Scooter Libby's trial showed Cheney's office praising Russert as their best format for getting their message out. Perhaps Russert (like Chris Matthews) used to be more left but adapted to fit into the political climate during the bush years. That doesn't make me respect him any more, and I'm certainly not lining up to support his beatification by naming highways and other public works after him.

[bosten]

I was very fortunate to attend the funeral for Tony Snow with a dear friend from FOX News.
It truly was a celebration of the man !!!

I have to disagree with Sallylightfoot (who is probaly a Bush & Republican/Christian hater & is probaly a far left/liberal/democrat loon)
"Snow was a professional spin-doctor, a shameless prevaricator and consummate liar."
She probaly feels this way based on her above mentioned hate for Bush/Republicans ETC.............

Georgie, if Sally disagrees with you because she is a "Bush & Republican/Christian hater & is probaly a far left/liberal/democrat [sic] loon" does it mean that you acknowledge yourself to be a "Clinton & Obama/Democrat hater & far right/reactionary/republican [sic] loon"?

Funny how you think you're simply a normal, patriotic American and those who disagree with you are crazy and extreme. It implies a certain want of perspective on your part.

P.S. In case you need to demonize me for questioning your views and need to come up with an appropriately misspelled epithet for me, it might help you to know in advance that I am not a "far left loone" [sic].

The name may change, Hex, but Georgie's IQ (roughly equal to an icecube) remains the same. Isn't it nice that some things don't change?

Perhaps he took one too many hits on the head with his longboard[}:)]
