Breaking on CNN, Tony plans to take the job at the White House.

I agree. History will be kind to President Bush. Clinton will be an asterisk as the only Democratic President to have served two terms in the latter half of the 20th Century.

DU is all shook up over this news. Plenty of "Faux News," "White House Media Outlet" posts being made.

Seeing a bunch of communists comapring Fox News to Pravda, and using "Pravda" as a pejorative is a hoot.

[Miss Marple]

If this leak is true (and if I were you I'd check up on where Bill Kristol was today and who he was talking to) CONGRATULATIONS!

I will keep my word and pray a Rosary for you every day. God bless you and God speed!

Just curious---what does irrelevant mean when applied to a sitting president? Does he just sleep in while the government cranks along? Or were you joking?

"Well, when the press asks about the White House position on amnesty, it will have one of its biggest advocates giving the company line."

Interesting isn't it? Other threads are trashing (rightfully) President Bush for his immigration stance but their seems to be untainted joy at the prospect that someone who shares the same pro-amnesty view will now be doing a better job of articulating that position. In the battle against illegal immigration Tony Snow is now the point man for the opposition.

[Cold Heat]

Bush will be listed as a visionary and someone who did the hard things with a passion.

Clinton will be remembered for Monica doing a "Hoover" imitation.

Check the year old WaPo Fitz praise article in the Leak thread.

The thread from this afternoon? I must have missed that article. Off I go! Thanks

Hey, they think Russert and Matthews are right-wing wackos... go figure.

Abandon hope all who enter there.

[Fledermaus]

When? 3012? He's blown it and Congress is much worse. I've been a Republican activist for 30 years and I've given up on them.

[Fudd Fan]

Don't forget the asterisk that reads, the only elected president to be impeached.

[sofaman]

Hiya fuddy...

I just hope that Tony calls it as he sees it. Seems that the WH Press Primadonnas require that the Press Sec show them great deference or they may throw a hissy fit like David Gregory did when he threatened to stab Scotty with his lipstick.

[Bahbah]

I will keep my word and pray a Rosary for you every day.

As will I.

[Txsleuth]

Actually, I think that Hollywood actors make too much money...just THINK of how high the cost of movie tickets are...

Perhaps Congress should investigate price gouging in the Movie and TV industry...and they should be made to give their hugh profits to the poor....like the dems want the oil companies to do.

I do believe the profit margin in the entertainment industry is a lot higher percentage than the oil business...

[Miss Marple]

Not ALL of us disagree with Tony's stand on immigration, nor the President's. I don't argue about it any more because those who think differently are entrenched in their position.

I am glad to have someone defending the President's position on the Iraq war, Iran, taxes, etc. etc. One would hope you could at least see the advantage to that.

[AliVeritas]

Nope... the huge backhoe one. Sorry...

[BlueAngel]

LOL!

[CAluvdubya]

I just found out today that yet again San diego has the highest gas in the nation. If our gov doesn't know to watch out for gouging, then he's forgotten why his predecessor was recalled (sort of )

[ilovew]

I very much doubt that you ever supported them. However, I wonder who will remember you when you're gone? President Bush will be remembered forever as the President who helped us recover from 9/11 and stayed true to his belief that America is not the problem. If you can't see that, nothing I say will make you see it.

[RasterMaster]

Congrats on the White House job!

If you get a minute, tell Helen that she's "Smokin' rope" and we've had enough of her "snarky" comments!
