Press Briefing 04/27/06
— Wednesday, April 26, 2006 — Q Nancy Pelosi says that having Tony Snow now behind the podium there is not going to make much difference. What would you say to that? MR. McCLELLAN: I think Tony Snow is going to do a great job for the President. I saw him earlier today, and looked up at him and told him, "I used to be your height before I started in this position." (Laughter.) Q We'll do that for him. MR. McCLELLAN: He's someone who brings a good outside perspective. He's got a lot of diverse experience in the media, which will be very helpful. He's spent 25 years in the media, the print side, the radio and TV broadcast side of things, as well. He's also someone that's worked in the government. And he's certainly got some strong views, and I think that's a good thing. Q But what about specifically that point that Nancy Pelosi is making, she thinks it's not going to be -- MR. McCLELLAN: Well, I think that Tony Snow is going to do an outstanding job for the President. And the President looks forward to him joining the team here shortly, and I look forward to doing all I can to help him. Q Given the fact that you've been in this job now for almost three years, what advice do you have for him? MR. McCLELLAN: Well, I had a good conversation with him over the weekend, and we talked about this position. And I provided him some of that advice. And I did so in private. I look forward to continuing to provide him some of my thoughts and insights into this position. White House Press Corps | Press Briefing | Scott McClellan | News Media | Tony Snow
