I know the death notice was already posted, but I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Blankley several years ago (we sat at same table at a political event) and always found him very interesting. Hadn't seen him around lately, but did catch him on one of the talk shows just a couple of weeks ago & wondered why he had been off the air. RIP Mr. Tony Blankley

I am shocked by this news. I just saw him a while back on a news program discussion panel. I had no idea he was sick. What a terrible loss. This guy had some great insights. RIP.

I missed the previous post, so thanks for this. I always enjoyed hearing his opinions and analysis.
Prayers for the comfort of his family.

Oh no...I had not seen this...so sad. Aside from being a really bright guy, he always struck me as just a nice, nice guy. I have missed him lately and will continue to do so.
RIP Mr. Blankley.

Me too. I remember seeing him recently, I dont remember where but it seems pretty recent. I had no idea he was sick. This is indeed terrible news. He will be missed. RIP
To: Brandonmark
Tony was a class act. My first recollection of him seems to be about the time of the ‘94 Contract with America. He may have been on the American scene before that, but I was not aware of him. If memory serves, I recall him being very fair and even-handed in his contacts with Newt and the Conservatives who were giving the ‘rats a fit back then.

Another Anthony to be missed. So sad. May Mr. Blankley Rest In Peace and our prayers are with his loved ones. Prayers for Tony Snow’s loved ones too.

did catch him on one of the talk shows just a couple of weeks ago & wondered why he had been off the air.That must have been the same show I saw. Wondered then where he had been but he looked a lot different. Now I know why.
RIP Mr. Tony Blankley

I’m thinking I saw him on Larry Kudlows program. I regularly watch that during diner.

I am so sorry he is no longer with us. Tony’s passing is a loss to this world. However, he is in a place of peace and praise.
