Molly Ivins (1944-2007)
I was going to suggest a moment of silence, but that's not what Molly Ivins would have wanted. So instead let's all honor Molly by continuing to make noise about the things that mattered to her and matter to us !
She was the one of the all time best. first Art Buchwald, now Molly… Sad month indeed.
A closing Molly Ivins Quote:
“The United States of America is still run by its citizens. The government works for us. Rank imperialism and warmongering are not American traditions or values. We do not need to dominate the world. We want and need to work with other nations. We want to find solutions other than killing people. Not in our name, not with our money, not with our children’s blood. ”
And one for Art:
“An economist is a man who knows a hundred ways of making love but doesn’t know any women. ”
