God protect you Tony. Too bad we couldn’t have you as WH spokesman since 2003 instead of that Traitor “scarlet T” McClellan.

Prayers up Tony, hoping it’s the flu or anything other than a relapse.

I’m sure Scott McClellan`s public remarks slamming Bush&Company haven’t made Tony Snow feel any better.

I don’t know why bad things have to happen to the good people. Maybe the bad ones could not handle what Tony has had to go through. We are praying for you Tony.

Tony:

I’ve got the same Cancer as you do and I know what you are going through. Keep battling. I’ve been in this fight for over 5 years. My cancer seems to have the upper hand now, but I’m still fighting this speed bump on life’s journey. My prayers are doing out to you in big batches.

Does anyone know how to reach Tony by either e-mail or snail mail to send our prayers. It sured seemed to work before when he was at the White House. I think he was the absolute best press secretary to a President ever.
Please post an address for us well-wishers.
Thanks

As I recall, he has his account back, here at FR. It was just inactive while he was Press Secretary.

Tony, if you’re lurking, we are praying for you, and want God’s best for you.

Hopefully this isn’t related to the cancer problems, just a bad case of the flu or something?

I was just thinking about him this morning. I was wondering if he was okay because I had not heard anything about him in a long time. He is one of the good ones. May God have mercy on him and let him survive this challenge.

You were irreplaceable as WH Press Secretary! That said; do hope this illness is a passing 'flu' or somesuch; and that you will feel better soon.

Meantime. . .prayers for Good Health unfolding, for Tony.

Oh dear. ((((Tony))))

Prayers said for Tony and his family

Freepers make me laugh so hard and I get a big kick out of giving others a chuckle. So it always meant a lot on the live thread when Tony would take the time during his show to give us an “LOL” (like when I said we were going to fight the Laura Ingram fans by the bike racks after the show) or chat about old timey Saturday Night Live with us. I still get silly giggly when I think about the time he said my screen name on the air. LOL I’m easily entertained.

Tony is “good people” and I feel blessed to know him, even if only in a virtual way.
