This is grrrrrrrrrrrrrreat stuff.
And Molly Ivins' column appears here. I've been following her since I was knee-high to a grasshopper ... or so it seems. Somewhere back in the last century I met her at one of her "lectures" when she visited the University of Washington (U-Dub ... in Seattle) on a book tour.
Here are the Ivins' columns I found on truthdig:
| Reports: The GOP Shell Game | With the Bush administration, it’s important to have in mind the old carnival con game: Keep your eye on the shell with the pea under it. | Molly Ivins | 02/27/06 |
| Reports: It's the Corporation, Stupid | Regarding the UAE port deal: The people running this country are perfectly willing to outsource American jobs, wages, and health and safety standards for the sake of free trade. Why would it surprise us that national security is ditto? | Molly Ivins | 02/22/06 |
| Reports: Abramoff Got Indicted, and All We Got Was This Lousy $20 Gift Ban? | Reform follows scandal as night the day, except in these sorry times, when it appears we may not get a nickel’s worth of reform out of the entire Jack Abramoff saga. | Molly Ivins | 02/20/06 |
| Reports: Cheney Shoots a Texas Liberal | Welcome back to the paradoxical Bush/Cheney “responsibility society,” where no one (starting with the administration) takes responsibility. | Molly Ivins | 02/13/06 |
| Reports: The Cure for Executive Excess | Can impeachment heal the malady of executive privilege and wiretapping? It has before. | Molly Ivins | 02/09/06 |
| Reports: Kicking the Oil Addiction: Bush Lied, Again | Cut imports? Medicare savings? Just kidding! As one White House official confessed, they just fib for your benefit. | Molly Ivins | 02/06/06 |
| Reports: Iraq the Disaster, Officially Speaking | I do hope this is responsible criticism that aims for cures, not defeatism that refuses to acknowledge anything but failure. | Molly Ivins | 02/03/06 |
| Reports: Lying About the State of the Union | As our government renames a civil liberties-trampling spying program and suppresses the results of its own studies, Americans are being left in an information vacuum regarding the true state of our union. | Molly Ivins | 01/31/06 |
| Reports: Not Backing Hillary | I’d like to make it clear to the people who run the Democratic Party that I will not support Sen. Clinton for president. | Molly Ivins | 01/21/06 |
