Molly Ivins


Another of the original hackwhackers, and one of the best ever, Molly Ivins passed away today after a long battle with breast cancer. Molly was the well-respected syndicated columnist for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and author of "Shrub," an account of Bush's record as a businessman and Governor of Texas. She had a wonderful sense of style and language, and whether you agreed with her or not on every position, she was always a joy to read. Rest in peace.
