Death of Tony Snow

Today our country lost one of the great writers, commentators, and press secretaries, Tony Snow at age 53. Though this author only met him once, his bright spirit was evident to everyone in the room.

Many articles have been written on all of his accomplishments. Had Tony Snow been Press Secretary instead of Scott McClellan, President Bush's approval ratings would be 15 points higher. Snow had a way of communicating the positions of the President in a clear and concise way.

He was one of the best communicators in the conservative movement and his perspective will be missed.

This author's prayers are with his wife and children.
