Dear President George W Bush You're a genius!

From the Whitehouse: "THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. I'm here in the briefing room to break some news. I've asked Tony Snow to serve as my new press secretary."

I read about this early this morning and my gut feeling was "PERFECT!" I don't know Snow; I have never read, heard or watched his reports, but from what I have read on FoxNews.com and AP reports, this is a beautiful decision. (And yes, I agree with Bush's decision to stick with Rumsfield too.)

I mean here you have a new press secretary who has publicly questioned the decisions of this administration; one who has experience in the Whitehouse too, (snow served as a speech writer for daddy Bush according to AP reports); a man who has been on the front line of news reporting just like the people he has been hired to communicate with. He's a TV personality with the confidence and training to keep cool under pressure and present a positive image.

From what I have read this guy is not going to sit quietly in the back of the conference room and pawn along. My understanding is he will have a say in decisions and speak out when something needs to be heard. This guy is going to make a huge difference and I think we will see it very soon.
