w00t for Tony!

As many of you have undoubtedly heard, FOX news commentator and columnist Tony Snow has become President Bush's new press secretary.

I've listened to Tony's radio show semi-irregularly for more than a year and have enjoyed what he's had to say.

Mr. Snow apparently accepted the job on condition that he would be involved in the policy making process instead of just representing decisions to the press. This makes me very happy because Mr. Snow is significantly more conservative than the president and an eloquent advocate for smaller government. I think that a small-government emphasis has been missing from the presidents agenda and I hope that this will change during the remainder of this administration.
