Tony Snow returns to work

Tony Snow returned to work today, and that's very good and heartening to see, and I attack no qualifiers to that. No one deserves to go through the scourge that is cancer, but especially someone as young as Snow, who is 51 with three young kids.

Here's hoping you beat this, Tony. I may disagree with Snow politically, but when it comes to something like cancer, politics is a meaningless, distant second.

One other quick note - the comments section of this video on YouTube sickens me. Some people are taking pot shots at Snow, even during his struggle to beat cancer. Anyone who does that is beyond contempt.

Snow said some things today that I whole-heartedly disagree with, and I'll deal with that in a separate post, but to kick someone when he's down is revolting. Many on the left, myself included, decry intolerance and hate speech, but those who are taking the opportunity to slam Tony Snow in the middle of a cancer fight are no better than the conservatives who make intolerant remarks that we on the left condemn.
