When I referenced Tony Snow last Friday as one example of the Left’s death wish against its their enemies, I had no idea he would be dead before the weekend was over. snip
Unfortunately, it has gladdened the hearts of many on the Left.
An L.A. Times editor approved hateful comments on Snow’s obituary. CNN’s iReport quickly filled with bile. However, the left-wing “alternate media†(so named for the universe they inhabit) produced the most searing and deliberately offensive coverage.
As Snow passed away this weekend, several outlets – such as Mother Jones, The American Prospect, and Common Dreams – have not yet weighed in.
Surprisingly, John Nichols at The Nation penned a gentle, compassionate obituary.
Which sent his readership into a red fury. Among their comments:

For crying out loud here is a guy defending war crimes and cleverly obfuscating the honest questions. May be there are groups where his skill is appreciated just like a group of homicidal maniacs admiring the Charles Mansons. Give us a break.

Snow was a nasty f**k. there was no civility, he had a high handed arrogant way of conducting the press conferences. I'm glad he's dead.
Sadly, the commenters and not Nichols characterized the Left’s response to Snow’s repose. The anti-Bush website The Smirking Chimp smirked that Snow had “Gone to join Jesse Helms.†The first comment elicited:
I'm lovin it,yeeeeeehaaaaaaaa
yaahooo
LET'S PARTY!!~
