Tony Snow offered White House Job

Heard on the John Gibson radio program

[yellowdoghunter]

I just heard on the John Gibson radio program that Tony Snow has been offered McClellan's job at the White House. He has not made a decision but will discuss it on his radio program tomorrow.

I didn't see this posted. Just posting what I heard. No link.

Tony: this administration is damaged goods and it's not coming back. If this was the start of the first Bush administration, I'd tell ya to go for it.

Now, forget it. Nothing but trouble, nasty press corps and an administration that continues to lose influence. It's not worth it.

Tony always talks about how he would massage and shape the WH communications strategy. He knows Washington. This WH needs someone who can highlight the successes of this administration and hold the MSM to the fire. He would only have to do it through the elections.

Do it, Tony. O'Blowhard will be so jealous, seeing as he thinks GWB should hang on his every word.

[deport]

It would be a pay cut.

But a huge resume builder, imo.

Or maybe Gibson is trying to stir the folks up over at DU

[yellowdoghunter]

Gotta run guys. I am just posting what I heard...but like I said gotta go for now, it is finals week in school!

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

Are you kidding?

[Miss Marple]

TAKE IT!!! I can guarantee that you will have donations to make up the salary difference. We will buy your book post-administration in mass quantities! TAKE IT, PLEASE!!

I am begging! The country needs you!

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

Message sent to Tony.

McClellan is a nice guy and with a resume line of WH press sec, he can go places.

If true my guess the places he going is Austin Tx to run his mommy's campaign press relations, etc.

[wjersey]

Tony just lost the job because he can't keep a secret.

Even I wouldn't wish that on Ma Richards McClellan Keyhorn Your Name Here Strayhan

[DrDeb]

If this is true, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE say yes -- your country and your president need you!!!

[rwfromkansas]

You have finals week early. Wow.

[rwfromkansas]

I somehow think he can smooth things over if the WH finds out it got leaked.

It is Gibson who blabbed.

[rwfromkansas]

You aren't the real Tony Snow are you?

[decal]

I dunno....TWO guys with the word "Secretary" in their titles named "Snow" in the same administration - the Press will become even more confused than they are now.

[tiredoflaundry]

Yes, that IS Tony Snow.

"It would be a pay cut."

Not when you consider the royalities he would get for writing about the last 2 years of the Bush administration (as well as culling info from key players about the 1st 6 years)!
