The Watcher: Farewell Statesman

Today a true patriot and statesman passed away. I was a fan of Tony Snow ever since his television show began in 1996. I've enjoyed his television show, his radio show, and his time as press secretary. I've learned much from you. You will be missed.

"There will be two great political parties in this country. One will be called the Republican, and the other the Democrat party. These two will go to war and out of these two parties will spring another party which will be the Independent American Party. The United States will spend her strength and means waring in foreign lands until other nations will say, 'Let's divide the lands of the United States,' then the people of the U.S. army will give up, and the rest will continue to struggle. They will keep on until they are very ragged and discouraged, and almost ready to give up--when the boys from the mountains will rush forth in time to save the American Army from defeat and ruin. And they will say, 'Brethren, we are glad you have come; give us men, henceforth, who can talk with God.' Then you will have friends, but you will save the country when it's liberty hangs by a hair, as it were."

Joseph Smith (1844)
