I will really miss columnist Molly Ivins, especially during the rest of the Bush administration. She was at her best when she was in high outrage, and there is so much to be outraged about today.
She certainly had Bush”s number, the whole time. She was right on target with her early warnings of the Bush catastrophe.
Quoting Molly at her best:
“What happened to the nation that never tortured? The nation that wasn”t supposed to start wars of choice? The nation that respected human rights and lives? A nation that from the beginning was against tyranny?
Where have we gone? How did we let these people take us there? How did we let them fool us?
We are the people who run this country. We are the deciders…We need people in the streets, banging pots and pans and demanding, Stop it, now!””
Rest in peace and Godspeed, Molly.
