What would DUers pay to read Molly Ivins take

[malaise]

on Sarah Palin.

[AlCzervik]

1. i was just thinking about Molly and what she would have thought about Palin the

other day. God i miss her so much.

[glowing]

2. I think she'd have her back in Alsaska wishing she never left..

On the other hand, thank God she doesn't have to witness this joke and national nightmare.

[lonestarnot]

3. OMG would she ever have the words for that thing!

"That thing got my blood a boil'n."

[tannybogus]

4. I would give all I could!

I have wished for her presence so many times since she passed. She was proof that the pen was mightier than the sword.
She rallied more with her words than others ever did with their bluster and war.

[OKthatsIT]

5. I think Molly would be 'suspended' by DU...by now

Too much TRUTH...and you can't take the truth.

[11 Bravo]

6. Would Molly have called her "all bra and no boobs"?

[BrklynLiberal]

8. Sounds like something she might have said. She was great.

She is missed...

[liberalmuse]

7. Ouch!

The thought of not reading her commentary on what is happening now hurts! No doubt she would have come up with the best nickname of all for Palin. God I miss that woman.
:cry:

[Warpy]

9. No one is indespensable

and there are other smart, loudmouthed women to take over where Ivins left off. One is even in Texas: http://www.kissmybigbluebutt.com/

Molly Ivins would be pleased that her tradition of telling it like it is to men who are used to the sweet flower of southern womanhood being silent and decorative lives on.

13. Thanks for that link

I miss Molly

[charlie]

10. In a way

I'm glad she's not seeing everything unravel like this. Through it all, she always had an innate fondness for politicians, she genuinely found them amusing. But that indulgence was stretched pretty thin in her last years. It'd be too sad to see Molly become embittered.

11. I think the real question is....

with the amount of spinning Molly is doing in her grave has oil been found yet?

12. Unique, both of them -

Molly Ivins and Ann Richards.

What I wouldn't give to see those two great broads on the Larry King Show, talking about today's news.

What I wouldn't give.

There is no one around, at least not yet, who compares to them. I miss them awful.

[sarge43]

14. I'd pay a lot just to have Dear Molly back with us.

Nuking Bible Spice would be a bonus.

[tosh]

15. It gives me a smile to think

that somewhere Molly and Ann are together with their feet propped up, observing and sharing comments with one another. At times, I can almost hear their laughter.

[sarge43]

16. I like to think another Texas broad of quality would be with them -

Barbara Jordan. That Triumvirate would have Palin's liver on a stick.

[malaise]

17. LOL

Isn't that the truth.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

18. I'm sure she would say that Palin was Shrub with a uterus.

[malaise]

19. Who let the moose in?

:rofl:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

21. lol!!!!

[tannybogus]

20. Here's a link to a DU post of Molly quotes.

We should all read them once a day for our sanity!

23. Thanks

Those are great.

[LWolf]

22. I'd give a lot to have her back, Palin or no. nt
