    Well, I have to wish him well (2.00 / 1) (#1)

    but I don't think it will make much difference;  it's really discomforting to watch a guy dying before your eyes.  

    I don't get how a guy who's obviously as seriously ill as he is can see his way clear to have used so many of his remaining days to just spew sophistry to help cover up the crimes of this regime.  I'd rather hang out with friends and family, go fishing and enjoy what little time I had left.

    Have you tried to get individual coverage lately? Heck, I'd sell my soul for the means to afford it if I was in my position. Besides, the guy worked for Fox for years, why would he have a problem with sophistry?

    Dana Perino (2.00 / 1) (#3)

    Having Dana Perino doing the daily press briefings will be a lot more fun than Tony Snowjob.  Tony can lie shamelessly without even blinking, and acts astonished that everyone doesn't see the obvious "truth" that he sees.

    Perino, on the other hand, sometimes seems to be really embarrassed by what she is saying.  I think that youtube will be showing some really funny videos of her press conferences.

    It doesn't matter to me a whit. Lies are lies, whether entertainingly delivered or not (depending on your sense of "entertainment," of course).

    I, personally, want to wish Tony and his family all the best.  I will miss seeing him and hearing his colorful press meeting comments with the media.  I have followed Tony's career since his Fox News days and would love to see him get back into that some day, but I understand he has commented those days are gone for him.  Praying for his good health and enjoyment with his family and friends in the future!  God speed, Tony!
