1. Unforgettable. nt

[lunatica]

2. Yes. I remember her often and miss her

[TexasObserver]

3. Recommend. She was a sweetheart.

I got to know her in the early 1970s.

She was simply awesome. I read her columns right up until the end. She was my favorite columnist.

11. Did you work for the Observer?

I sure wish that Molly was still with us...

[TexasObserver]

12. No, just took the name of that quality Texas liberal paper.

I've known several of their writers over the years, however.

[Bigmack]

4. I miss her snark. nt

5. What Would Molly Say?

I wish she were still around giving us a piece of her mind . . . she had the ability to blow away the smoke and smash the mirrors while laughing her ass off. I loved the way she thought. She told us about what an idiot Bush II was way before he made it out of Texas. She was a real cowgirl for Democracy. I hope there is a heaven because my idea of a great afterlife would be sitting on a cloud throwing back a few with Molly Ivins and Ann Richards.

7. What I really miss about her

is that she could be as serious as a heart attack about issues and still find somewhere to make you laugh. She wasn't

mean, and I sure wish she was here to write about birthers, Bachmann, et al.

Oh, the laughs she'd have gotten and given. She is so very sorely missed.

I miss her too.

[Are_grits_groceries]

20. It is written by some

very good people. I am looking forward to it. I will celebrate her life, but I know it will also make me melancholy because I miss her voice.

[Jakes Progress]

15. K&R The best the country can do.

America at it's most transcendent.

Molly for God.

19. I will never forget Miss Molly

I read her stuff for years and years; she was one of my very favorite writers.

There are days when I really miss her. I'm sure she'd have many a thing to say these days, just as she always did.

21. A kick because she was our Molly. nt
