>>hiring Democrats (ala Tony Snow and Chris Wallace).<<
Wallace does indeed tilt left... are you sure we're talking about the same person? Tony Snow, a lib?
The guy used to fill in for Limbaugh, back in the day.
If anything, Tony is a Libertarian...think Walter E. Williams or Thomas Sowell.
Walter E. Williams or Thomas Sowell don't come to mind. But the words lightweight and cream puff certainly do.
