Former White House press secretary Tony Snow is apparently attempting to remake himself into the image of Bill O’Reilly. While speaking at a small bible college in Oklahoma, Snow claimed the country was caught up in a War on God.
In a series of recent public events, Snow has adopted the mantle of the right-wing’s perceived “secular-progressive” war on conservatives.
According to the "Oklahoma City Firday" In an address to the Academy of Leadership & Liberty at Oklahoma Christian University, the former White House Press Secretary Tony Snow launched a rhetorical broadside against college faculties in America and mourned this nation’s “war on God.”
“The average Iranian is more Pro-American than virtually any college faculty in this country.” And with serious talk about the war on terror and “the second war in this country, the war on God.” […]
Snow said.
Snow failed to mention why, despite having an enormous bully pulpit in the White House briefing room until recently, he had never mentioned this tragic war.
But it gets worse. Appearing on the O’Reilly Factor last Thursday, Tony Snow endorsed Bill O’Reilly’s purported war on Christmas:
"I don’t think they’re going to beat Jesus. … You’ve mentioned the fact that you’re not allowed to have Christ at Christmas. I mean, I went to a Christmas store this week. It didn’t have anything about Jesus. It had all sorts of funny little ornaments in it, but nothing about the holiday. People are tired of that."
Oddly Snow and O'Reilly also never mentioned that if they truly wanted Christmas to be all about Christ, they'd get his birthday right. Numerous scholars and historians contend that Jesus was born sometime in the early fall, not on December 25th.
But why let facts get in the way of a nonsensical rant?
