Unlike Tim Russert, with whom he went head-to-head on Sunday mornings for 7 years, Tony Snow migrated from journalism back to politics, doubtlessly taking a substantial cut in pay.
The final chapter on the second Bush administration has yet to be written, and it will be years if not decades before an unbiased evaluation can be articulated, but when that happens it is hoped by this reporter that Tony Snow will emerge as one of the stand-up guys from a difficult period. His honesty, optimism, and humor will be greatly missed, both at the White House podium and on channel 72 (or wherever you find Fox News).

Hi Nathan - Just discovered you had a blog when I was looking at David's bookmarks! I noticed you had a post on Tony Snow and just ran across this article he wrote for Christianity Today last year. I didn't realize what a great testimony he had. Anyway, just thought you might find it interesting if you had not seen it before! Here's the link:

Tony Snow was a stand up guy wiht a great testimony. There is no doubt where he will spend his eternity. He stepped in as press secretary during difficult times and did a great job. I believe history will show that. I will miss him. You don't find many of his caliber in the US media these days.
