Hey, don’t blame Tony. He’s doing what he can.

Speaking of ol’ Tony, Reuters says he’s out the door:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - White House spokesman Tony Snow plans to leave his job before U.S. President George W. Bush’s term ends in January 2009, citing financial reasons rather than his recurrence of colon cancer.

In a radio interview this week, Snow, 52, did not reveal when he would leave. Snow earlier this year suffered a return of colon cancer and has been receiving chemotherapy.

But he said his reasons for leaving would be financial. He took a pay cut to leave Fox News.

But he said his reasons for leaving would be financial.

Thus adding financial bankruptcy to moral and intellectual bankruptcy. The triple crown!

At this point, a pig with lipstick would be a friggin’ treat.

Only Republicans would feel sympathy for Snow’s financial plight of taking a virtual minimum wage job of $200K per year.

OW: Wrong analogy, but close.

Make that, “…the futility of spraying a bucket of Texas pig shit with Chanel No. 5.”
