RIP Molly Ivins
One of a kind, full of wit and smarts.
A great writer and a terrible loss.

- "Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony"

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.
The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

"One of a kind" is right. She could kick the Powers That Be in the ass like nobody else. And her columns were fun to read. Sort of Mother Jones meets Jon Stewart.
RIP.
I can honestly say that she was my favorite political columnist. I am greatly saddened to lose her, but greatly enriched to have found her.
Mother Jones is a good analogy, one I think she's approve of. May she rest in sweet peace.
she was just plain fabulous and will certainly be missed.
