I can't believe he wouldn't give FoxNews the scoop.

I didn't think this would be a great career choice for you, Tony, but I know you're too civic-minded to dismiss it.

The best of success in whatever you do.

[West Coast Conservative]

Excellent news!

There is another thread in the side bar that says his doc's OK'ed him to do the job beyond that I do know anything more.

[Libertina]

LOL This will drive the liberals (more) mad. ;)

This is great! Josh Bolten and Tony Snow will help give the administration the tools for a mighty comeback. Let's face it Scott Mclellan nice guy and all but with him we were automatically on defense no matter what the subject was. It is a good thing that Bush & Co. are at 32% now rather than 6 months from now. 2 things are certain:

1. Bush always comes back.
2. Democrats have the worst timing

Now I can enjoy the "rolling up the sleeves and get dirty " attitude this administration will hopefully employ. This whole situation reminds me of my New York Jets. New faces new era.

"Check this out" ping.

WTG, Tony!!

P.S.- How are you Ms. Z?

[Peach]

I am so pleased; he'll do a great job. Just great. I know he won't slap the press as visibly as a lot of us would like to see (LOL) but he always has the facts and doesn't get that deer in the headlights look that Scott got.

Now I will actually enjoy watching those tedious press conferences. Tony will be awesome.

Fox is breaking the Natalie Holloway story....or a car chase...or Duke Rape case....its Greta time, so no hard news for now. Anyway, its better it does not break on fox, imho. Let the games begin. I can see it now: his opening message every morning is to issue corrections to the previous nights evening news from CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC.......(then if he has enough time, he can get to the questions)!

[AmishDude]

Ah, so maybe that's where the leak was. The doctor.

I am really getting tired of the Aruba story, and when there is an important story like this, well FOX, really loses in my eye's.

[nmh]

I hope he is okay!

He'll be a GREAT in this position!!!!1

[kerryusama04]

Woo Hoo.

[nuconvert]

Great news!
I am a little surprised.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Does this mean no more Snowflake threads?

[jazusamo]

Outstanding! I'm betting we'll see a different atmosphere in the briefings.

[Bahbah]

Tony the Tiger. He will be a class act. Well, he is a class act. I was hoping for this. He negotiated the terms and I'm confident that wasn't about salary, it was access and message. What a wonderful asset for the President and a seat at the table of history for a friend.
