Miss Molly, By Golly

As with all of us, we only live on in recognition and memory. So here are a few more snippets from Ms. Bad Ass Dem Diva, Molly Ivins.


On the Reagan Administration: "Half of it was under average. The other half was under indictment."

On Pat Buchanan's culture war speech at the 1992 Republican Convention: "It read better in the original German."

On her core beliefs: "I believe in the Bill of Rights the way some folks believe in the Bible."

On Bill Clinton's sex scandal: "With all due respect to the President's private parts, we do have bigger problems in this country."

On life after 9/11, here and abroad: "It's hard to convince people you are bombing that you're doing it for their own good."

On George W. Bush: "It turns out that a C average is not good enough to be President."
