In his tribute to the late Tony Snow, Juan Williams writes:

"Oh, and I should mention we both loved basketball. Tony could
dunk a ball from a running start while I could just grab the rim.
He would rib me about being a black guy who couldn't dunk although
he was five inches taller. He also poked fun at my favorite but
woeful pro-basketball team, the Washington Wizards and I would give
it to him about his rag-tag home town football team, the Cincinnati
Bengals."

Was Snow from the Cincy area? I wasn't aware of that, but I'm not
surprised he didn't make himself a known Bengals fan. :-)

So fucking what? Just because Snow died doesn't automatically make him a
better person. He spent his career lying for money and deceiving the
American people to the best of his ability in order to send American youth
to an unecessatry war to die for oil companies and defense contractors. He
was a sickening, immoral, waste of oxygen who had no empathy or care for
anyone except his money grubbing masters. Good fucking riddance.

Between him and Jesse Helms both kicking it, it's been a pretty damned good
week.
