Okay, this is the most surreal news of the year.

Interesting times.

I'll miss his show, too ... (sigh). But, he'll get a much bigger audience at the press conferences. Can't wait for the live threads. :)

Why? The Jets are going to have a sick draft.

[Carolinamom]

Congratualtions! Will you be taking the cuss jar w/you to the WH? LOL

[BossLady]

This will give new meaning to the phrase...'Snow Job'...hehehe! Cannot wait to see Tony in action! ;)

[DTogo]

In the past few months since joining the Snowflakes I've posted this suggestion a few times, that Tony replace Scott. I hope Tony takes up my suggestion of "Tony's Angels" and lets some of the FNC ladies fill in for his radio show while he's in the White House.

Will Tony still FReep with us once in a while?? We should start a volunteer FReeper service to mow his lawn and watch the kids once in a while! :)

[Lunatic Fringe]

Still dont see anything on the website.

[YaYa123]

LOL!! David Gregory guest hosted on Hardball tonight, doing the show from the White House lawn...clueless!

[Basselope]

Tremendous! You are the BEST and I wish you all the luck in the world! You will do us proud! God bless!

[Buffettfan]

Liberals will claim that Tony Snow is a conservative tool planted by Fox News. These are the very same liberals who had NO problem with George Stephanopoulos of the Clinton administration now working for ABC News.

[blinachka]

EXCELLENT!!!!

All the best to you Tony! I look forward to seeing you give Helen Thomas hell! hehehe!!! Seriously, best of luck and serve well!! :)

[SierraWasp]

Don't you think that after his being employed at FOX and so closely affiliated with that network that he probably doesn't want to be accused right off the bat of playing favorites and being partial to that network??? I would certainly think so!!!

That's one of the first things the press corps looks at in impartiality in their competitive world...

[mystery-ak]

I bet Tony is lurking here for our reaction......as you can see Tony....we love it...you have a wonderful and selfless family....

[teenyelliott]

Oh, how cool.

Kick Helen Thomas in the knee for me, Tony!!!!!

Boy howdy, I can't wait for the daily press briefings either!

[Howlin]

In case you haven't heard...

[DAC22]

Strange that Fox didn't get the scoop

FNC best carry the WH Presser so we can see Tony in action :0)

Best wishes Tony. You will do a good job. Its a no lose situation really - there is no where to go but up when it comes to white house communications.

Hopefully Tony will use his experience knowing what real people are talking about and saying on radio and the blogs, and bring that sense of realism to the white house.

[mware]

We need to buy his a larger cuss jar. A 5 gallon jar should do the trick.
