As befitting his career, the death of former White House Press Secretary Tony Snow, whose charm put an affable human face onto policies responsible for the death and suffering of hundreds of thousands of people, triggered a whirlwind of false spin this weekend.Mr. Snow himself, in his trademark manner, best described his accomplishments, calling his tenure as Press Secretary, "The most…intellect

Former Bush Press Secretary Tony Snow died today from cancer at the age of 53. I am sure he will be missed by fans of Fox "News" and those in the Bush administration.

Let me start on an unusual note for a press briefing, just to give a lot of thanks to a lot of people, and I want to start with you.This job has been the most fun I have ever had, the most satisfying, fulfilling job. I'm sorry I have to leave it, but I have got to say it has been a real honor and a pleasure working with everybody in this room. And I'll miss it. You know, everybody talks about what a horrible job it is to brief the press -- I love these briefings and I'm really going to miss them. On the other hand, it's left in Dana's capable hands and the business of keeping the press informed will continue to be the object of the press office and life will continue,
At the bottom is CNN video about the Tony Snow resignation. What I found incredibly telling though was the quote from Allahpundit at Hot Air. It is a perfect example of how our President has lost support from most of his base. And I agree with him.

Not a surprise; he told Hugh Hewitt a few weeks ago that it was coming, ostensibly because his paycheck isnt enough to support his family in the manner they deserve but probably because hes just exhausted from having to spin Bushs crap.

He's capable of -- he's able to talk about issues in a way that the American people can understand.And I don't know what he's going to do -- I'm not sure he does yet, either. But whatever it is, it's going to be -- two things: One, he'll battle cancer and win. And secondly, he'll be a solid contributor to society.I do want to thank Jill and Kendall, Robbie and Kristi.

I'll apologize, but it's packed with information so I'm sure you'll be grateful.First, the President had a secure video teleconference this morning with Prime Minister Maliki. It lasted approximately 45 minutes. The President began by congratulating the Prime Minister and the Iraqi people on Iraq's soccer victory in the Asia Cup. Both leaders noted that the victory demonstrated to the world what Iraqis can do when they work together.

SNOW: Hello, everybody. As you probably know, the House Judiciary Committee has just voted along partisan lines to have a criminal contempt of Congress referral against White House legal counsel and the White House Chief of Staff. For our view, this is pathetic. What you have right now is partisanship on Capitol Hill that quite often boils down to insults, insinuations, inquisitions and investigations rather than pursuing the normal business of trying to pass major pieces of legislation, such as appropriations bills, and to try to work in such a way as to demonstrate to the American people that Congress and the White House can work together.I want to remind pe

We are a little bit concerned about some reports on the Internet that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, in a conversation with liberal bloggers, had referred to General Pete Pace, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, as incompetent, and apparently, again according to the reports, had said disparaging things also about General David Petraeus.

Just like Edwards' wife and all people who suffer, really, I hope and pray Snow is OK. His replacement (temporary, I hope), Dana Perino, did a wonderful job. She's very charismatic (and pretty). The questions from the reporters were horrible, however. This is what happens:
1. Perino gives a statement saying Snow is sick and that he doesn't want to talk about the specifics of his illness.
2. Perino then follows Snow's wishes and makes a very important statement on a very important issue. Namely, the Democratic effort to lose the war in Iraq before it's too late.
3. So, when she Dana opens up the floor to questions, what do we get? You guessed it. "What's his pain medication?" "What will be the course of treatment?" Who cares? I'm sure the doctors are on it. Why do the American people have to know this stuff? What can they do about it once they do? Why is it asked after being told he doesn't want to talk about it? Why can't we hear questions on something the American people
President Bush's Statement on Tony Snow's Cancer Recurrence, Rose Garden, 10:54 A.M. EDT. THE PRESIDENT: This morning I got a phone call from Tony Snow. He called me from the hospital. He told me that when they went in and operated on him they found cancer.It's a recurrence of the cancer that he thought that he had successfully dealt with in the past. His attitude is, one, that he is not going to let this whip him, and he's upbeat. My attitude is, is that we need to pray for him, and for his family.Obviously, a lot of folks here in the White House worry a lot about their friend, as do Laura and I. And so my message to Tony is, stay strong; a lot of people love you and care for you and will pray for you. And we're hoping for all the best. I'm looking forward to the day that he comes back to the White House and briefs the press corps on the decisions that I'm making and why I'm making them. In the meantime, I hope our fellow citizens offer a prayer to he and his family.Thank you.

Just watching this it looks like Tony Snow is trying hard to build a back story based on "performance issues" as the reason Carol Lam was fired. I don't remember which administration official it was but they said the "performance issues" were due to a decrease in illegal immigration prosecutions. Now tell me, honestly, does anyone really think the Bush administration would be upset as a DECREASE in illegal immigration? Yup, about what I thought. ~RJH

Is there any room for compromise?MR. SNOW: Again, we have made our offer. But let me address the bunker mentality. I can't think of anything that's further from the truth. Here you have the White House having made an offer to Capitol Hill that's designed to do one thing, which is to enable the House and Senate, in reviewing decisions made on U.S. attorneys, to get at the truth, and the whole truth; to make available to them key people at the U.S. Department of Justice, to have full access to emails

There are a lot of issues -- politically, economically, and in terms of security -- to address within Iraq. As he said -- he talked about the hydrocarbon bill and deBaathification. But it was an important and a good meeting.And it, incidently, comes at a time when the United States Senate is debating a resolution that would pull the rug out from under the Iraqi people by trying to set artificial deadlines
