A longish piece by Tony Snow, the new Bush press secretary, appears on an anti-Martin Luther King site owned by the viciously racist (and anti-Semitic) Stormfront organization. Don't get too excited: The article, about Kwanzaa, appears to have been lifted from the Detroit News. However, Snow is in a financial position to make lawsuit noises when an objectionable group rips off his words -- and he apparently did not object when the Nazis made use of his text. Perhaps he did not know about it.
Snow did knowingly (and enthusiastically) contribute to the ghastly Free Republic site, home to racists and other accomplished haters. His posts are now being scrubbed. Hit the Wayback machine, Mr. Peabody...!

Proud to say that I know nothing about Tony Snow except what I've heard in the past 24 hours. But I wnhesitatingly predict that this appointment will be a disaster on the order of the Harriet Miers nomination.
