Liberal
Patriot:
"Molly
Ivins was an unabashed patriot, and
it drove right-wingers nuts. Conservatives
somehow got it fixed in their brains
that patriotism meant being in lockstep
with their ideology, that dissent was
treason. Molly made a career of reminding
them otherwise, always careful to point
out how cute they were when they acted
like fools."
--Gary
Cartwright, senior editor, Texas Monthly,
2007. Molly Ivins (1944-2007), a sharp-witted
and clear-eyed columnist who died of
cancer last year, was an unapologetic
liberal. She once observed, "There's
nothing you can do about being born
liberal -- fish gotta swim and hearts
gotta bleed."
