Snow’s job

I’m disappointed that Bush chose ex Fox News (cough) ‘analyst’ to replace that smooshie little doughboy, Scott McClellan. Sure it was a smart economizing move, cutting out the middle man and making a fox commentator the official voice of the white house, but still something troubles me.

Could there have made a better choice? Even dipping into the Fox News pool aren’t there more qualified people? For example, wouldn’t Bill O’Reilly, who rumor has it has been considering a career change been a better fit for the white house? Just imagine those press conferences. “You’re out of line, Goldberg. Sit down and shut up!”

Or why not give the job to someone with more press corps experience… someone with a more ‘intimate’ knowledge of the west wing; someone like Jeff Gannon. Or maybe to a person who can speak to the base… Pat Robertson for example. Or why not Nascar champ, Kurt Busch? Who could argue with that move? With a world of good choices, why go with a no name like Tony Snow? O’well.
