Associated Content: Tony Snow, Writing, Libertarianism and Me By Kevin Dayhoff

Reflections Upon Being an Aspiring Writer, Tony Snow, Libertarianism, and What If…

Photo: That’s Tony Snow in the 1970s…

I originally wrote this piece on October 31, 2008, after I had stopped by the "Carroll County Times" to drop off a piece of art for the Carroll County Times Newspaper in Education annual auction.

It was published by Associated Content Nov 26, 2008…

* As an aspiring writer, who stumbled around for several years after I dropped out of Elon College in 1973 to be a "writer," I could easily relate to what Tony Snow may have gone through after he graduated from Davidson and "shuffled from job to job."

* After Mr. Snow graduated from Davidson, he went to work in 1979 for "The Greensboro Record."

* That paper, now "The Greensboro News and Record," is owned by Landmark Communications.

* I interviewed at "The Greensboro Record" in 1973. I had just dropped out of Elon "to be a writer."

* I have followed Mr. Snow's career for many years and I am amused when the media felt the need to label him as a "conservative." He was a libertarian. There is a difference.

Snow To Thomas: “Thank You For The Hezbollah View” (Video)

By Greg Tinti

This is must view video of the Tony Snow in a verbal tete a tete with the curmudgeon – read – constantly confused - Helen Thomas. Everyone and every community has a “Helen Thomas” in their life. It’s worth taking notes as to how Tony Snow handles her.

I agree with the one poster in the “Outside the Beltway” comments section that I think Tony Snow ought to be our next president… Mr. Snow is a refreshing change in the White House.

Mr. Tinti’s introduction to the video is worth repeating:

“Although that’s the quotable moment of this exchange between Tony Snow and Helen Thomas, the entire thing is worth watching simply for its entertainment value alone. It’s old school Helen Thomas, trying to “Scott McClellan” Tony Snow. And somehow Tony has already mastered the art of dealing with the queen of combativeness and irrationality. It’s really quite impressive.”

Enjoy the video here.

Can Snow Men Sing the Blues?

“Until someone finds us the audio of Tony Snow singing the theme to Spongebob Squarepants (IT EXISTS, WE KNOW IT), we will force you to listen to him play a flute solo over some of the whitest blues you’ve ever done heard…”
