In Demand! Tony Snow to Campaign for GOP Candidates
Edited on Wed Sep-27-06 11:22 AM by sparosnare
Geez - they aren't even trying to keep up the semblance of bipartisanship anymore. First time a WH Press Secretary would be actively

campaigning for a political party. Snow says his past job as a journalist and his desire to help the President and the Republican Party led him to make the decision. He insists he will not engage in opponent bashing (ha!). :rofl:

The GOP will fund Snowjob's appearances, and he will not hesitate to cancel if he's needed at the White House. Eager to hear him speak - Republicans have been watching Snow for years and can't wait to be graced by his presence! :rofl: :rofl:

Full story:

"They asked, and I thought about it a lot and we went back and forth," Snow said. "It's one of those things where I certainly want to help the president. But you have to make sure it's a fine line, and that's why I don't want to get into opponent bashing.

"The approach I'm going to take is not going to be one of going out and whacking Democrats by name, but straightforward comments about what the president has accomplished," Snow said.

Snow already has been speaking at some events with Republican activists, such as an appearance before about 800 with the Pennsylvania Republican Party on Sept. 15. But his first big candidate fundraisers come next week, when he headlines fundraisers for Reps. Jean Schmidt in his hometown of Cincinnati and Geoff Davis of a neighboring district in northern Kentucky. Expectations are high, with Republicans hoping for as much as $100,000-$150,000 per appearance.

1. "Straight forward comments" "No opponent bashing"
tony you are a riot. You are nothing but a right wing whore for the republican hate machine. You are not a journalist. You have no morals. You are a liar and are paid well for being one.

A member of the republican party walking a fine line?
