I can't say what I want to about Tony Snow, because he is ill.
But you know I want to.

I'm sure we all are sorry he has recurrent colon cancer, but he's a major jackass mouthpiece for a lying Administration and that hasn't changed.

Jerks do not become class acts just because a malignancy sets up shop in their body.

At 10:20 AM, Unknown said...: Sorry, don't agree. If someone is ill, the most important thing that we can do is treat them as a normal person. They are not the illness, the illness is not them. They have the responsibility to either continue and be treated normally, or go onto a hiatus due to illness.

He is functioning, so treat him as you would a non-ill person.

Kick his butt.

I totally agree.
That malignancy in his body did not change anything about him. He's still a primary spewer and absolutely must be held responsible for the lies that he speaks.
