This is terrible.  First we lost Tim Russert, and now Tony Snow.  Both brilliant political commentators, and both far too young.

Two great political minds and voices in a year where the presidential race promises to take on historic proportions.

The fact Tony passed away, I guess is not a surprise, as he has battled cancer for years.  But it is always a shock.

Tony was one of the main voices I listened to in the early days of my growing interest in politics.  His common sense and patience with rabid liberal callers was always impressive.

I plan to post a bigger tribute later, including his great work as White House Correspondent.

But first, the bad news:  Westboro Baptists has come out of their horrid little hole in the ground, and Tony is their target.

I have despised these fruitcakes for years, and this just adds to my dislike.

Westboro Baptist Church Plans Tony Snow Funeral Protest

Dear God, please let the Patriot Guard Riders know about this ahead of time. The Phelps gang is ready to strike, and  this is their intent. Please pass this along to all who can get the word out  so we can stop these fools. According to their site, this  is when it's going to happen and why:

07/177/2008 10:00 AM -- 11:00 AM Alexandria, VA Christ Episcopal Church (Lepor Colony) 118 N. Washington St. Tony Snow (Press Secretary  for 6 "B" George W. Bush) is dead, YES! He had a platform, he was given some small talent by his creator. He was an unfaithful steward, and is now residing  in hell. Each opportunity he had to faithfully REport what the servants at WBC had to tell this country/world, Tony Snow besmerched and vilified the words of God and tte people  of  God.

I seriously hate these people and I really don't like using that word lightly.

07/17/2008 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM Alexandria, VA

Christ Episcopal Church (Lepor Colony) 118 N. Washington St. Tony Snow (Press Secretary for 6 “B” George W. Bush) is dead, YES! He had a platform, he was given some small talent by his creator. He was an unfaithful steward, and is now residing in hell. Each opportunity he had to faithfully REport what the servants at WBC had to tell this country/world, Tony Snow besmerched and vilified the words of God and the people of God. Thereby being a party to the crime of passing laws to make the preaching of the gospel to this adulterous and sinful generation = criminal activity. That is a very bad monkey! This is what the Lord Jesus Christ said about hypocritical heretical “scribes”: Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Matthew 23:14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows? houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. Matthew 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Matthew 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Matthew 23:25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Matthew 23:27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men?s bones, and of all uncleanness. Matthew 23:29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, Luke 11:44 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them. You see there is nothing worse than a scribe who has gone away from their primary duty to faithfully report the facts as they ARE! And how appropriate that this brute, vain beast of a brat was raised Catholic, but then determined like his forefathers that oops! he’d rather be a filthy Episcopalian, instead. God hates Tony Snow, and that is why he is now burning in hell.

Then they’re going to continue on in Maryland:

07/17/2008 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM Baltimore, MD

Federal Court House in Baltimore, MD Hopkins Pl & W Pratt St Since we will be in the neighborhood picketing in Alexander, VA at the funeral of a very evil (cut off at a surprisingly early age) scribe of DOOMED america named Tony Snow - we decided to hook up these unthankful brutes in Baltimore with a nice little picket. As promised before, and God’s promises are good as GOLD we come with a message to the EVIL PERVERTS OF BALTIMORE, to wit: Even as Moses preached against the hard-hearted Pharoah of Egypt, this is the message to you Evilmerodachs of Doomed america and of Baltimore, Maryland: Let my people go, that we may serve the LORD of Hosts in Truth. You have done this against your own interest, and as long as you continue to suppress the Truth in unrighteousness (Romans 1:18), God will continue to slay your young men and your old, your little ones and the cream of your crop. The siege is already upon you, and forbidding us to preach the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and His Words should NOT be your desire. Of a truth, you will NEVER shut up the Word of God from this land until our testimony is complete and THAT is determined by the Living and True God! His name is Jealous and his name is The Lord of Hosts, A Man of War - HIS arm is not shortened and his purpose is NOT encumbered by YOUR rebellion and disobedience. There is only one solution to your terror, and that is swift obedience. Otherwise, and more than likely based on your manner and presentation- by your words an deeds- you will be cut off like Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboim, and like Gibeah, and like Doomed Israel and Judah, and your destruction will be greater than all of theirs put together. america is Doomed! He will do a work in Baltimore that will cause the ears of them that hear it to tingle! Amen.

God they make me want to HURL.   I sure can see thr love and graceof god in their words and deads.

Here is Youtube of the chief bastard:

Please, Patriot guard? Shut them down.

I wish I lived back East.  I'd join the counter protest myself if I did.

RIP Tony.  And forgive the foolish assholes.
