I pray it's due to Health and not Liberal truth-haters or pressure from similar groups.

I certainly do NOT wish Any evil on Tony Snow, He's a very temperate and sound-principled man.
I'm just giving my preference between 2 evils that could be the real reason.

I pray his conscience is bothering him and he just can't shill for globalism over US interests anymore

Tony Snow said Friday he’ll leave sometime before the end of the Bush presidency because of financial pressures.

CNN distorting the truth as usual...idiots or wishful thinking.

Actually I heard on Rush’ show today that he is stepping down to look for other work due to financial pressure.

Tony Snow said Friday he’ll leave sometime before the end of the Bush presidency because of financial pressures.

In light of what the man is going through in respect to his health and providing for the future of his family, it is entirely beleivable.

Remember, there are ethics restrictions on what he can do for income. That is true for any administration official. In his case, government service really was a sacrifice. Those restrictions are not in effect once he's again in the private sector.

God Bless Tony Snow! He will have precious time with his family which will be a blessing to his wife and children. He will be free from the stress of his frustrating position as Press Secretary. He will have time to write a book to tell all of us about what is real and true and irreplaceable in life; teach us how to cope, in grave illness, with hope and faith in our hearts; and leave a grand legacy for his family and friends.

I saw him the other day, and I took note of how ill he looked. I think he is not doing well.

I sadly agree. It looked like this suit was hanging off him. I hope getting out of this mess will help him fully recover.

Tony, we love you and we’re praying for you. May the Lord guide you in all your decisions, and may you continue to have faith in the wonderful plans He has for you.

He’s having chemo for a tumour discovered on his liver last March, he looks awful, can’t imagine he has the energy for a job like that at present.

Respectfully I pray the exact opposite of your prayer. I don’t want Tony to have to step down for Health as it would mean he’s getting worse.
