I was lucky enough to have spoken twice to him as a call-in to his radio show before his White House stint. An ode to Tony.

Tony Snow – while in the WH – was the silent (mind you) personification of the many Americans that serve in a non-military capacity every day.

I dont think I’m exagerating.

When it came to “selflesness” Tony Snow really believed it. He came to really appreciate the idea of service and what it meant thru writing for GHW Bush 41.

I Listened more than once to Tony on the radio talk about his days in the Bush 41 White House as though they were his own personal glory days.

For a clan – the Bush clan – that prides and values loyalty, there were so few so close to both father and son as Cheney and Tony Snow.

AP:

No one will ever care what the jackals who wrote that think. They can’t lick Tony’s boots. That kind of classlessness is its own reward.

Yuval Levin @ NRO amplifies Lem’s “master of context” observation.

In the clips of interviews playing today on Fox, two things he said which i’ll paraphrase: “There’s no sense in thinking about dying — dying will take care of itself. Better to think about living.” And “Humor is important — anyone who can look in the mirror and not see someone at least faintly foolish, needs to take a closer look.”

Both little bon mots said with a big friendly smile. What a loss today.

I always wonder how much better the current Bush Administration would have been if Mr. Snow had been on board at the start.

Heaven is a better place, today.

AP: classless and clueless.

My own father died at the age of 54 of the same kind of cancer. It was awful for our family. My died suffered a lot. I hope that Tony Snow did not. He always seemed like such a gentleman. God Bless him and his family.

Fox News Sunday suffered a major decline when Tony left and Chris Wallace took over. Snow was always the face of optimism even when dealing with cancer. Bush hired nobody that performed his job better than Snow.

Regarding the AP, why should anybody care what those vermin write about anything?
