>>”I will not be able to make it to the end of this administration, just financially,” Snow said. “This job has been such a pleasant surprise in how much I like it. I love it.”<<
I have to say that does not ring true. I say that even as I like and respect Tony Snow. But if this story quotes him acurately and not out of context, I think Tony just lied to us about his main motivation to leave.
He said the same thing on Hugh Hewitt the other day
I liked him better as a talk show host. At least i felt like his opinions were his own.
Yep - three children eat a lot!!! Hope they make until he leaves.
I saw him on TV the other day for the first time after a while. He looked so old now, compared to when he was still with FNC.
Medical expenses, even with insurance, can and does bankrupt far too many Americans..... Hope this isn’t the case.....
Well that and the fact the last year of a 2 term President’s admistration just sucks. :-)
I’m sad that Tony will not endure until the end of Bush’s presidency. Seems that salary and benefits would tie him over since he knew coming in what the package was. But, things change with all of us so new directions have to be taken.
Maybe he can run for VP!!
I do wish him a complete recovery from his cancer.
>>He said the same thing on Hugh Hewitt the other day<<
Tony is too honest for there not to be some accuracy in what he is saying... but he knew the salary and he knows the long term earning potential that comes from being deep inside the White House - Pat Buchanan has ridden a speech writing gig in the Nixon White House for almost 40 years.
So it just doesn’t feel like the truth that he is leaving over the reduced salary for one year.
So where do you think he could make more?
Just askin!
I think his illness has taken a toll on his youthful appearance.
Maybe you should give Tony a break?
>>Medical expenses, even with insurance, can and does bankrupt far too many Americans..... Hope this isn’t the case.....<<
Does anybody on earth have better medical insurance than high ranking U.S. officials?
AMEN!!!!
He was rumored to be earning a 7 figure paycheck from Fox and his old radio program.
That said, the Dems. will spin this as how he’s saying he can’t by on $168,000 a year, and what about children in poverty, yadda yadda.
Probably not.
If he is leaving for medical reasons, he might not want to have it speculated by the media that he is leaving to spend the rest of the time he has left with his family.
Only those who pay their own way...
Not to worry: The Hildabeast and socialized medicine will be FREE for EVERYONE after 2008!/sarc
Have you ever heard of coverage limits? Maybe he has reached his?
