Rest in peace, Tony Snow - UPDATED with examples of CBC.ca reader “compassion” speech

Written by Joel Johannesen on Saturday July 12 2008 at 12:36 PM

UPDATED BELOW

imageA good man, Tony Snow, succumbed to his colon cancer at age 53. 

He is survived by his wife, Jill Ellen Walker, whom he married in 1987, and three young children. 

See Fox News coverage.



EXTRA CBC SICKNESS:

As we’ve learned to expect from the state-owned CBC, because he wasn’t a Marxist and he worked for President Bush, the CBC.ca kids (its readers and commenters) pounce on his dead body and jump up and down on it like apes.  They can’t show even the slightest respect—no, not even for the cancer dead.  I hope his children don’t visit CBC.ca—or any children, ever. 

And the CBC approves the comments. 

•  “...However, as a Fox News talking head, as a Bush administration apologist, he was about as regressive as they come. He should really have chosen a better line of work.”

•  “If they weren’t so terrified of socialized healthcare he’d probably still be alive. “

•  “Redemption. Did he sign up for it. He’s in a long line of water boarding torturists, refugee makers, and liars,”

•  “Respect for the living is a much higher priority. The Bush administration and their flacks and liars have willfully and shamelessly caused the deaths of untold thousands of their own citizens and many many more of innocent civilians in the middle east.”

•  “...We can all hate FOX and the Bush Regime, what they have done and what they have not - maybe this is the best exit strategy?”

•  “Sorry Tanuss - there’s no pass cards for a quisling, not even in death.”

•  “... If Mr. Snow did not want his life to be judged he shouldn’t have made a living judging others, and apologizing for atrocities.”

•  “Tanuss: anyone who condones murder at the highest level of government doesn’t deserve my sympathy they deserve my contempt. Get a life and start a reading course would you.  Another friggin cry baby like Frum et al. Supporting an illegal war and countless dead, souls on their hands. Yes….. may he rest in peace, but along the way to nirvana or wherever I hope he meets the souls of those he condemned by supporting this administration in such a demonstratable fashion.”

• “Not all of the dead deserve respect. Snow was a disgrace to democracy, journalism and humanity.”

•

[A hater named “carlbailey” wrote this on our CBC web site, which the CBC approved in our national interest. —ed :]

“tanuss.

i’ve read some of your postings.
the only reason you are shedding crocodile tears for this dead man is because you saw his face, knew his name, and listened to his voice as it babbled off scripted words and blurted the occasional glimpse into a sociopathic administration populated by greed soaked psychopaths.

do you feel the men, women, and children of iraq, afghanistan, somalia, the balkans panama, vietnam, etc., etc., who have been killed on down throughout the years of successive administrations bound and determined to display american power and ideals through bombs, missiles and invasion are deserving of enough respect for us to stop terrorising them, or is your ‘respect’ for the dead limited to a televised face that lied to you?

he got what we all have coming.

the puerile little mouthpiece is dead.
he earned no respect while alive.
he gets none now that he’s a skin bag full of toxic preservatives.”

 

[I sure hope children never visit CBC.ca—particularly Tony Snow’s children. —ed]

•  “53….I thought they said we live long in this day and age. Guess our corporate controlled food supply isn’t so good for us after all. Gota go check my garden…”

•  “Looks like he found out too much !”

•  “Snow was condescending, evasive and equivocating; all the makings of a successful press secretary.”


...



See PTBC category “CBC.ca Reader Comments” for more examples of their uniformly barbaric intolerance and hate famous liberal-left “compassion” and “tolerance”. 



If you must read Canadian coverage of Tony Snow’s passing, see CTV coverage instead.  They show respect.

    I don’t normally visit sites like Kos or the huffington post, but. I will bet the comments are already spewing hate.
    These are the people that will vote for Obama and want change.

    and he perpetuated the lies of the Bush administration all the time he spent at that podium. before he was on the podium he was on Fox and Hate radio spewing the same garbage only worse.

    Well, if it’s any comfort (4+ / 0-)

    If it’s any comfort to you, colon cancer is a horrendous, painful way to die. The suffering he went through is a pretty thorough kind of karma for his past misdeeds.

    I was so saddened to learn of Tony’s passing this morning. He put up a valiant struggle and the world will be a bit poorer without his wit,his grace under pressure, his music and his courage in the face of a terrible disease.

    As for the CBC - Sick and disgusting, especially the comment about socialized medicine. Even sicker and more disgusting is the fact that CBC allowed it. But then, this from coming from Ball Waxing Central and the Brainpoo-opolis Bulls**t fan club should surprise no one.

    My heartfelt condolences goes out to Snow’s family and friends all those who truly respected this honourable journalist and white house press secretary.  It was an extremely difficult job and the reaction we see from the a-typical CBC puppies is not surprising.  But hey, they are progressive, non-judgmental, forgiving and truly wonderful human beings. 

    Thanks, Joel, for posting this.  We really need to see what Toronto Liberals are all about.

    Those are just two examples, and they aren’t as rabid as i thought they would be.

    What a courageous man Mr. Snow was. He was always so positive when he spoke of his health.  It saddens me to learn of his passing; my mom died of the same.

    It is upsetting to know that CBC allows such vile at their website.  It is easy for commentors to type and click enter from the safety of their keyboard; it is quite another matter for those comments to remain knowing that they are pre-moderated/reviewed and published according to their submission guidelines, that I fund through my tax dollars.

    Must go get coffee.

    Damn!  Just got the word.  Tony was a great conservative, and will be sorely missed.

    I always enjoyed watching Mr. Snow calmly cutting the throats of liberals in heated debate, by just politely stating the facts. 

    Rest in peace Tony Snow.  God Bless his family and friends.

    We can only hope this venom represents such a small segment of our population but with each passing day I’m not so sure.  People I run into constantly spout the CBC talking points without an ounce of interest in the true facts.  When you point them out to them they look at you like a dog who just defecated on the carpet…What, what did I do.

    Very sad commentary from a few of our citizens.  Perhaps one day they will be forced to have to deal with a close family member who has to deal with this disgusting disease and then they may actually grow the heck up.  Cancer does not know poltical affiliations, religous backgrounds nor gender so we should always show respect in someone’s death.  The puppies on that hateful site, just like KOS and HUFF, should understand that.  I don’t want to paint all Liberals with a brush because many have shown respect but these clowns who have posted need psychological help.

    • “If they weren’t so terrified of socialized healthcare he’d probably still be alive. “

    Who ever wrote that may as well as typed
    ” I’m a stupid ignorant full of hatred leftist!!!”

    How much CBC must one watch to be brainwashed into believing one has more chance of surviving cancer by waiting 18 months to get treatment in Canada than one who goes to the USA and gets it in a matter of days, and gets better treatment than in Canada?

    Canadians use their own money to go the USA to get BETTER cancer treatment.

    Are there really people out there who do not know such facts?

    I’ll say it again,

    Canadians use their own money to go the USA to get BETTER cancer treatment, this is a fact, not an opinion.
    I hope some of those CBC leftists will come here to Proud to be Canadian and learn a thing or two about the real world, not the CBC version of it.
