Tony Snow is going under the knife

[blogslut]

CNN just said. He has a small growth in his abdomen and will have surgery Monday.

That is all

Oh yeah, and the Pretzeldent is gonna say something live n stuff soon.

[NightWatcher]

1. Is this yet another "health reason"?

I know that he really was sick a while ago.

Anyone ever skipped out on a bill at a restaurant? It looks like the Bush admin might just quietly leave one by one.

[MoonRiver]

11. I know he had cancer.

He said some nice things about Elizabeth Edwards yesterday.

Don't agree with his politics, but God speed to him.

[Kelly Rupert]

2. I hope it's benign. n/t

[Octafish]

65. That's the spirit, Kelly Rupert. Thank you!

I do, too. I don't like Tony for his politics, but he is a fellow human being and deserves compassion.

Now if he could only learn that, himself...



Tony Snow in his younger days.

[question everything]

75. No, really? Would any conservative would even give "this hippy"

a second look?

Funny

[Octafish]

80. That's the thing.

Tony Blow's politics are scum.
Same for those who agree with the liar.
They call the Other, like a hippy, "scum."
I won't sink to his level.
That's another way I am different from NAZIs.

[Janice325]

3. I just heard that on CNN,too.

WTF is going on? Are the Repukes starting to bail out??
PS When I heard the report a moment ago, I almost swear I heard the commentator say "he has a growth in his anus," but I guess that was just strange wishful thinking on my part. :rofl: at myself. I think I need my hearing checked.

[mmonk]

4. Though I don't like him, I hope all turns out well for him.

[NightWatcher]

8. me too, I want them to healthy for a long prison term

Unlike Rushbo, I bet that the dems wont blame this on Tony trying to get sympathy or political support (re; Edwards). Damn it feels so good to be better than those assholes.

[librechik]

19. oh yeah, I forgot that--still, best hopes for a good recovery

even tho it's not what he deserves.

[Orangepeel]

5. Good luck to him. (n/t)

[JuniperLea]

6. I hope he's ok

Lesson to be learned here. You can't go through life lying your ass off without your guts eating you up from the inside. Karma happens.

Still, I hate the thought of any human being in pain. Holding good thoughts for the scoundrel.

[Marr]

7. I'll refrain from speculating on whether this growth is "politically motivated".

[NYCGirl]

9. Snow is a cancer survivor. I do hope this is benign.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Snow

[verse18]

10. Keeping up with lies on top of lies is stressful.

Stress exacerbates health conditions. Tony's destroying his own health covering for these crooks.

[Kelly Rupert]

21. Crap like that is why Elizabeth Edwards left DU. n/t

[lonestarnot]

64. What? Please splain.

[Kelly Rupert]

70. She left after a thread in which

some people were cheering Laura Ingraham's cancer, claiming she deserved it.

[Forkboy]

77. I wouldn't go so far as to say someone deserves it.

But getting it doesn't make them instantly worthy of my sympathy either.Bad people with cancer are still bad people. :shrug:

[Kelly Rupert]

78. True. That means they're still people, you know. n/t

[Forkboy]

81. Yes...still bad people.

He's not just a liar,someone who spouts off and doesn't know any better.He's a paid liar,one who has helped enable the death of thousands upon thousands of people,lying every single day to the people of the world,fully aware of his own actions the entire time.

If Goebbles had Spina Bifida it wouldn't make him a better person.Just because someone is human doesn't make them deserving of sympathy.Especially those who don't have any sympathy for the victims of their own deeds.

[lonestarnot]

82. Thanks.

[bdamomma]

37. that's right they may feel above the law but they are not

immuned from fatal conditiions.

[northernsoul]

12. I hope everything works out for the best

n/t

[jazzjunkysue]

13. Wow. Those growths really do come up quickly, don't they?

Amazing, how that growth came right up when all the serious talk of subpoenas came down in the last 48 hours.

Guess he just really can't make any more crap up that he wants to go to jail for.

It really is like the star trek episode where everyone starts disappearing from the ship and only Beverly Crusher is left.

Only this time, instead of a doctor, we get a chimp.

[Kelly Rupert]

24. Oh, come on. That's just ridiculous. n/t

[DesertRat]

26. He's had colon cancer.

Hopefully this isn't a recurrence.

[AlCzervik]

43. he did have cancer.

[greyghost]

63. RE:Wow. Those growths really do come up quickly, don't they?

"Amazing, how that growth came right up when all the serious talk of subpoenas came down in the last 48 hours.

LOL!

EXACTLY!

[PCIntern]

95. Welcome to DU!!1 Interestingly,

that was my favorite Star Trek Next Gen.

C U Around the campus here...

[greyghost]

96. Thanks

Live long and prosper.:toast:

[valerief]

86. LOL! You really zeroed in on the truth! nt

[DesertRat]

14. He'll be out for 3-4 weeks.

I hope the growth is benign. I wish him well.

[librechik]

15. blessings to Tony Snow--hope he recovers well

all the best to him and his family

[AzDar]

16. 'Small growth in his abdomen' = Cheney's egg sac.

Joking of course...hope he's fine.

[soothsayer]

42. lol! say, how'd he get it in there?

[helderheid]

17. I wish him well.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

18. junior speaks at 1:45pm edt per msnbc

[Norquist Nemesis]

23. Pre-emptive threats to the Senate, I'm guessing

Wonder if they'll remember is meds before he goes barrelling to the microphone.

[Norquist Nemesis]

20. Oh, the WH is just giving someone else an "opportunity"

at the pleasure of the President. :sarcasm:

Seriously though...For the sake of Snowjob's family, I hope all goes well with this.

[City Lights]

22. Hope all goes well for him. eom

[Lex]

25. Here's the growth:

Alien!

(I truly don't wish anything bad on Snow as much as I detest him. I hope he will be OK.)

[TahitiNut]

34. GMTA

[Ghost in the Machine]

54. Is *that* what the hand of the B.F.E.E. looks like?

I know it's been stuck up his ass for a while. After all, they are his puppetmasters.

Best of luck to you, Mr. Snow. I wish you a full and speedy recovery. Best wishes to your family.

Ghost

[PlanetBev]

90. Lex, ROTFLMAO

I almost peed in my office chair...

[madokie]

27. as much as I dislike him I do wish him well

[eleny]

28. speedy recovery

[rasputin1952]

29. Even though I think he is a lying sack of batcrap...I do hope he gets

this dealt with, and the prognosis is good...wonder if he has insurance under bush????:eyes:

Too bad many others in this nation will have the same thing and not get any diagnosis/treatment because they can't afford it...:(

I wish everyone good health and a pain-free life...O8)

[Fovea]

30. Best wishes Tony.

Not my kinda press secretary, but good health is a blessing I am loathe to withold.

[MiniMe]

31. Lets act a little more adult than the Freeps have about Elizabeth Edwards

[ObamaNationYes]

32. Hey..Hold On

Just yesterday we were appalled at some remarks, made by repukes,regarding Elizabeth Edward's cancer returning. They didn't have to wish her bad luck for us to be angered - we were angered by any suggestion that the problem might be used for political advantage. It turns my stomach to read some of the same crap here about Tony Snow - who is a cancer survivor himself!

[niyad]

46. welcome to DU-- having lost several friends to cancer, I wish him well. as a mouthpiece for this

lying, thieving, murderous maladministration, it is hard to have a great deal of sympathy for him.

[KiraBS]

91. I have too..

And I wouldn't wish it on anyone, including Tony Snow, just as I hope he wouldn't wish that on me.

[shaniqua6392]

33. One would hope that all of the health scares that Snowjob has had

would make him a better person. Oh well. I guess I hope he is alright though.

[redirish28]

35. Rawstory.com is reporting that it is BUSH

Breaking: Bush to have surgery for small growth in abdomen

No story but which one is it?

[blogslut]

38. Maybe it was a mistake

Because I'm looking at Raw story and the headline says Snow:

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8O20FG80&show_article=1

[DesertRat]

40. I heard Tony (MSNBC) report that HE is having the surgery. n/t

[CottonBear]

41. Incorrect. Rawstory is reporting that Tony Snow has a growth. Link:

http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8O20FG80&show_article=1

[maddezmom]

36. I don't like what he does for a living or who he works for, but I wish him all the best

[AlCzervik]

39. i wish him well and i really hope he's not having a recurrence.

[nadinbrzezinski]

44. Well that explains why he's been looking like daat warmed over

and Tony, get well soon

[CottonBear]

45. That's terrible. First Mrs. Edwards and now Mr. Snow. I hope he'll be OK.

I wonder if the stress of a job like press secretary can trigger a recurrence of a cancer?

[Skidmore]

47. I thought he was looking unwell the last time he was on teevee.

He had that look about his face that only a cancer patient gets. Don't particularly like the man's smug attitude or his politics, but as a cancer survivor, I appreciate what he's been going through with his illness. Cancer is a nasty, evil disease, and no one deserves to suffer with it. Hope he heals.

[AlCzervik]

48. he did look a bit grey, his skin tone.

[David Zephyr]

49. Snow will resign soon. He knows what Rove did to Scott McClellan & Scooter Libby.

And sees the same thing happening again where he's expected to lie and destroy his career and expose himself to criminal actions in order to save the thug that counsels the president.

[Kber]

50. I lost an uncle to colon cancer 6 months ago

it reoccured after a 5 year absense.

Prayers to him and his family for a speedy and complete recovery.

[madrchsod]

51. the upside--now we can listen to

the woman who was on a couple of weeks ago while tony was absent. she was way better looking than tony but alas she said the same old crap..
i do`t really care for him but hope he`s ok....maybe "someone" will point out "the error of his ways" while he`s under!

[ORDagnabbit]

52. I hope he gets what he deserves.....

take it how you wish.

[Kelly Rupert]

61. Care to explain? n/t

[leftofthedial]

53. that "small growth"

is called a full-grown nazi windbag

[Efilroft Sul]

55. Best wishes to Tony Snow.

His shout-out to Elizabeth Edwards yesterday was total class.

Good health to the Snow and Edwards families.

[dancingme]

56. he was very emotional yesterday about Elizabeth Edwards

he said some very nice, heartfelt things about her courage. I was surprised and thought he showed class. I hope he is OK.

[gauguin57]

57. I wish Tony good luck in the operating room.

I don't like the guy (AT ALL!), but I certainly wish him well as he deals with this health scare.

I hope the surgery is a success, and that the growth is benign.

[Forkboy]

58. Oh well.

[SeattleGirl]

59. I truly hope it's nothing bad.

My personal opinion of him aside, I don't wish cancer on anyone, and hope that whatever they find is not bad new for him.

[valerief]

60. After supporting the death of thousands of innocents by being the WH mouthpiece,

he gets no sympathy from me. I'll save it for the wounded.

[Forkboy]

66. Amen.

[Kelly Rupert]

72. He's still human n/t

[valerief]

79. That's debatable. nt

[bunkerbuster1]

62. Stick around awhile, Tony. We're not done with you yet!

Just kidding. Hope he recovers fully and is back to entertain us again real soon.

[Poiuyt]

67. I wish him well

[wicket]

68. Prayers for him & his family

n/t

[Lex]

73. I agree.

Despite my Alien! picture above, I don't really wish anything bad on Mr. Snow, nor anyone for that matter.

[Little Wing]

69. His head's been up his ass so long the Doctors think it's a tumor

sheesh

[NYCGirl]

74. Gee, nice thing to say about a colon cancer survivor. NT

[Ninja Jordan]

71. I've read that he had his colon removed in response to a previous cancer....

How does one live without their colon?

[Catherine Vincent]

76. If I were Snow, I wouldn't have taken the job as press secretary.

With all that stress and all. He would have been better off staying at Fox Noise. I hope it isn't anything serious.

[stopbush]

83. Here's to his recovery...at Walter Reed...

[valerief]

85. Yeah, in one of the fancy suites. nt

[dkofos]

84. May he have a Dr. that says oops alot

[Justice Is Comin]

89. God must be mad.

Why, I can't imagine.

[Kelly Rupert]

87. Remember how upset we were with the way freepers treated Elizabeth Edwards? n/t

[Beelzebud]

88. I hope his surgery is a success. I hope his boss goes down in impeachment flames!

:)

[cali]

92. I wish him a speedy recovery n/t

[dysfunctional press]

93. so...the trill needs a new symbiant host body, huh?

nt

[dogday]

94. Best wishes to Mr. Snow, we hardly knew ye as PR SECT

Here is wishing you a speedy recovery.
