Want to chip in for Get Well card for Spokeshole Tony Snow?
March 27 (Bloomberg) -- White House Press Secretary Tony Snow has been diagnosed with recurrence of cancer and the disease has spread to his liver, his deputy said today.

Snow, 51, who was treated for colon cancer in 2005, underwent surgery yesterday afternoon at a Washington area hospital to remove a growth in his lower abdomen that was discovered during a routine exam.

``It's a recurrence of the cancer that he thought that he had successfully dealt with in the past,'' President George W. Bush, who spoke with Snow about 7 a.m. today, said in remarks at the White House. ``His attitude is, one, that he is not going to let this whip him, and he's upbeat.''

1. I hope he makes a full recovery.
Yeah, the guy's a dick, but I wouldn't wish cancer upon anyone.

3. Geez, liver cancer
is bad. Having a cancer that has metastisized to the liver is even worse (guarantee it's somewhere else, too). I hope he gets appropriate treatment and adequate pain control. He's pretty darn young for it, too. Sounds like they caught the colon cancer at his first colonoscopy (usually recommended to start doing at age 50). I don't like the guy, but I don't wish physical ill to him either.

Sucks to be him.
