You misunderstand. Tony Snow will kill them with kindness, which is the perfect way to deal with the jackals in the WH Press Corps. It would be a mistake to have someone who would be rude and confrontational.

Snow will keep them on their toes, and he'll do it with charm and dignity.

I think you nailed it. Tony is the epitome of suave. I suspect Tony will remain one step ahead of the WH press corps, out-thinking them at every turn. Charm, dignity, persuasiveness, and sound reasoning are powerful weapons. Tony is gifted with all of those.

Just once I would love to hear this exchange.

Press Corp Critic: "Tony, sources are telling us the present has given up hope on winning the war in Iraq and is desparately seeking ways to end this and still keep the military industrial complex which he is personally benefitting from collapsing"

Tony: "What sources, ...did you just make that up?"

PCC: "No"

Tony: "Then tell me who these sources are"

PCC: "No"

Tony: "Then I don't believe you. Sit down"

slight pause

Tony: "Who here has a real question not based on lies and personal hatered for this president and his administration"

PCC: " " (eyes darting around the room, shrugging shoulders)

Tony: "Yes Brett go ahead."
