Remembering Tony Snow
Ξ July 13th, 2008 | → | ∇ My thoughts on... |
Our nation has lost a great patriot and a fine man with the sad passing of Tony Snow. In addition to serving two Presidents, Tony spent much of his adult life behind either a television camera or a radio microphone bringing us news and commentary on all things political.
Although he was a staunch conservative who was always eager to lead the charge in defense of traditional causes and policies, he never spoke down to his guests or made them feel less than equal to himself. This man was truly one of the good guys in the media.
Tony lost his long, difficult battle with colon cancer yesterday, and glowing tributes quickly began pouring in from his colleagues and politicians from both sides of the political aisle. Even most of the folks whose views and opinions were diametrically opposed to his had nothing but praise for him as a man and as an American.
All Americans should mourn the passing of this great man. He was honest, respectful of all, and a crusader for conservative ideals to the very end. He loved God, his country, his family and his work, and now his long struggle with cancer has ended at the young age of 53.
We’ll miss you Tony.

My husband liked him too. I never watch TV so I am not familiar with him.
