How does Tush explain this? A guy makes 168k a year working for the White House and probably is given the best health insurance the govt offers, yet still can NOT make ends meet. What happens to the guy making 50-60k who gets hit with a health issue and probably is un- or under-insured? --- Financial pressures force Snow departure By TERENCE HUNT, AP White House Correspondent 35 minutes ago White House press secretary Tony Snow said Friday he'll leave sometime before the end of the Bush presidency because of financial pressures. He declined to say when he would depart, but that, "I'm going to stay as long as I can." The 52-year-old Snow, the father of three children, earns $168,000 as an assistant to the president but made considerably more as a conservative pundit and syndicated talk-show host on Fox News Radio. He was named press secretary on April 26, 2006. The White House has been shaken by the resignations of some of President Bush's closest aides. Political strategist Karl Rove announced Monday that he would leave at the end of the month. Longtime Bush adviser Dan Bartlett left earlier this year and Andrew Card left earlier as Bush's chief of staff. Bush's term ends on Jan. 20, 2009. "I will not be able to make it to the end of this administration, just financially," Snow said. "This job has been such a pleasant surprise in how much I like it. I love it." Snow has been undergoing chemotherapy after doctors discovered a recurrence of colon cancer in March. He said the last of eight scheduled chemotherapy treatments would be on Friday. On Monday he will have a CAT scan to evaluate his progress.
