RIP Tony Snow

Tony Snow died today from colon cancer. I can't help but pity the guy. I mean, he was the White House press secretary which probably looked like a dream job. It just so happens that he took the job when America's public opinion of the Bush presidency turned for the worst- he became the public mouthpiece of the intensely scrutinized administration. I can only suspect that some of that stress is the reason for his cancer coming back. He did an admirable job during his stint and he always struck me as a sincere person.
