is reporting that Spokesman Tony Snow has just been diagnosed with liver cancer. Tony Snow had his colon removed in 2005 after cancer was discovered. DoubleSpeak would like to wish Tony and his family the best of luck in their struggle to beat this horrendous disease.
A loyal DoubleSpeak reader emailed me this morning with a great idea. Since the Bush Administration and the GOP can’t seem to get it right at Walter Reed Medical Center, why don’t we, the American people send in the experts to fix up the aging veterans hospital. We’ll call the show: Extreme Makeover Hospital Edition.
No, I’m not talking about another lazy government contractor. I’m talking about…
I have a good friend who is a producer for the show. I am going to email her this idea stat.

All of us here at DoubleSpeak wish John, Elizabeth and the entire Edwards family the very best as they enter, what we can only assume by preliminary news reports, to be an adventure of a completely different nature with Elizabeth’s health.
We will keep our readers posted at noon today as we all find out what the future holds for the Presidential campaign of John Edwards and for this already memorable race for the White House 2008.
Update: “The campaign goes on, the campaign goes on strongly,” John Edwards told the media today at a press conference in North Carolina. Again, our best wishes are with Elizabeth and the family as they continue what they hope is a journey to the White House.

at the top of CNN.com tells us that, “A House subcommittee voted today to authorize subpoenas for President Bush’s key adviser, Karl Rove, and other top White House aides, in the probe of ousted U.S. attorneys.” Ladies and gentleman…START YOUR ENGINES!
Rep. “Mean” Jean Schmidt (R-OH) is one of the most horrible politicians in America. Based on this statement, it doesn’t seem that she respects our brave troops and our veterans at all. She needs to be defeated in 2008!
Check out her latest tirade on the scandal at Walter Reed Medical Scandal. Sick.
From Political Wire:
“I found the situation at Walter Reed to be overblown by both politicians and the media.”
– Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-OH), quoted by the Cincinnati Enquirer, on the living conditions at one of the nation’s main facilities for treating veterans wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Facing a tough re-election fight in Louisiana, Governor Kathleen Blanco (D) has decided not to seek a second term.
Associated Press reports:
Gov. Kathleen Blanco, whose popularity plummeted after two hurricanes devastated Louisiana during her term, announced Tuesday that she will not seek re-election.
Blanco has been burdened by the sluggish pace of recovery and by pressure within the Democratic Party, but she said she wanted to push through important initiatives without having to worry about political considerations.
“I am doing this so we can work without interference from election year politics,” she said in a televised appearance from the governor’s mansion Tuesday evening.
She had already broken the news in phone calls to legislative leaders, a meeting with her Cabinet secretaries and in a letter to her staff.

newspaper in Washington, D.C. is reporting that “Republican officials operating at the behest of the White House have begun seeking a possible successor to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.”
For those hardcore DoubleSpeak fans who followed our every move on the “One Minivan, One America Tour,” you’ll remember our interview with Brian Schweitzer, the great Democratic Governor from Big Sky Country.
If you haven’t listened to that interview yet, you can do so here.
Check out what the Governor has to say about environmentalists. This guy is hilarious.
From National Journal:
“Environmentalist — that sounds like someone who lives naked in a tree and eats nuts with the big nose ring. But when you say, ‘I want protect the places where you like to hunt, camp and fish’ well, you bet [voters are] for that.”
