Covering Dirty Snow


Steven Leser reports that Tony Snow's comments have been deleted from Free Republic. Snow is, reportedly, a regular commenter at the notorious rightwing site. The Free Republic is a slime-site so repulsive that you can find pictures of Madeline Albright's face pasted on top of nude bodies. Don't ask how these morons treat their grandmothers. The Holy Christian Bushies don't shock me much anymore, but if Tony Snow does indeed frequent Freeperville, I am genuinely stunned by the company the White House Press Secretary keeps. (There's a reference in the comments here to Snow as member of maturity-challenged Freeperville.)

According to Lesser, "Mr. Snow was a regular poster over at Free Republic and as one can see from the link and quote below, overnight when it was announced he would be the new press secretary, the mountain of information Mr. Snow had submitted and had posted on the site disappeared. What is he hiding? What sorts of comments is he afraid might see the light of day?"

Hat tip to Jen at Donkey o. d.

On a related note, Think Progress points out: "The White House is trying to spin Snow’s criticism by saying it’s evidence that Snow isn’t afraid to be honest. That’s fine. But that means that people who are being honest say things like “George Bush is something of an embarrassment."

Heh. I can hardly wait to see what Jon Stewart does with this.
