IMHO, Tony Snow has gone to a better place than people like these will ever see. He was courageous and thoughtful of others. They should have listened to his words, instead of automatically refuting them.

AP and its personnel are unfit to wipe Tony Snow’s shoes. Rot, AP.

The left's favorite way to say what they want without any facts or attribution. I despise the DBM.

Tony Snow was a wonderful man in every way. The world is better for his having been among us for his too few years. I pray for his family whose lives now have an unfillable hole.

**During daily briefings, he challenged reporters, scolded them and questioned their motives **

Tony Snow was a good press secretary. The best I have ever seen.

Tim Russert was a saint that walked on water according to the MSM. Tony Snow gets this treatment. I hate the *%%^! Lamestream Media!

Never a better press sect in my sixty three year memory. Our
side and the nation lost a great man and patriot.

I think Tony would have smiled and accepted these AP insults like a badge of honor.

“AP really is the problem at the base of the media bias. How can we lessen their influence?”

Well i haven’t clicked on a single AP site or story since the FR ban. I hope thousands of others are doing the same.

Why the outrage? Do we ever expect “class” from the AP?

By a 50 state Republican sweep in November, both federal and state!

Critics suggested that Snow was turning the traditionally informational daily briefing into a personality-driven media event short on facts and long on confrontation.

The WH presstitutes had the half-wit McLellan as a punching bag for several years and were accustomed to setting the tone in the daily briefings. Tony Snow came along and took control of the briefings, quick on his feet he held the arrogant WH press corps at bay. They couldn't intimidate him and often times he made them look like the idiots they are ... all the while with a smile and a twinkle in his eye.

I for one haven’t expected class, either in speech or behavior, from any of the MSM in ... years? No, decades; they’re nothing but a herd of weasels, with specific exceptions to be found within the FoxNews group. This of course explains why the extreme left nitwits are always complaining about and lambasting FoxNews.

For further explanation of my view of them, see my tagline.

And I know I will never be a true Christian. I just don’t have it in me to let that kind of stuff go. Let’s hope in the next life they are forced to APOLOGIZE and live amongst themselves. That would be hell enough!

Hate is a strong word, but totally justified for these ghouls. And Tony is fortunate to not have to deal with them anymore and that is a better place alright.

So are you saying the accolades and tributes won’t be comparable to Tim Russert?

The really sad thing here Sub is that you just quoted a web site that quoted an AP story.

According to AP those quotes are enough to demand money from this site if I remember correctly, so they can make outrageous and over the top claims and “bait” people to use the quotes to show how pathetic they are.

If they wanted to then they could come back and hit people they don’t like with copywriter laws, you have to use the quotes to show how horrible they are but then you just infringed on their rights to do so.

How pathetic is that?
