Spiritually speaking, does the untimely death of Tony Snow...?

...refute the saying that "only the good die young"?

Update:

Super Nintendo Chamlers: Carlin, may he rest in peace, got the three score and ten years the Bible says are given to the righteous man.

    Well... one does hate to speak ill of the dead, but I always thought the name "Snow" was appropriate for him: both as in "snow job," and in something cold, heartless. and exTREMEly white.

    George Carlin was in his 70s when he passed away. Does that mean he wasn't good? That would be horrible to say, right?

    No matter what you thought of Tony Snow, he suffered with cancer for a while now. His family is grieving. You need to learn respect and show some compassion.

    EDIT: 3 score and 10 isn't only for righteous men. It's told in the Bible to be a lifespan, average age, lol. Isn't it great that God used a renown nonbeliever to prove His Word is true?!!

    Nice to see so many sterling examples of compassion, tolerance, and diversity here today.

    EDIT: No, I didn't cry when Goebells died, but then again, I wasn't born yet. Had I been alive, I wouldn't have cried either. That being said, comparing Tony Snow to Joseph Goebells is beyond the pale in my opinion.

    I am curious, though. Are you going to say the same thing about George Stephanopoulos, DeeDee Myers or Mike McCurry when they die? They also served a corrupt administration.

    I was so sorry to see on Fox that Tony Snow had died.

    I wouldn't call Tony young, and given his history with Fox Noise and the White House, I respectfully suggest he wasn't all that good.

    sorry I don't see anything good about a person who lies about a war where people die & then we are supposed to put them on a pedestal. 53 is not young. People over 40 are not young they are middle aged atleast.
