Tape of Molly Ivins coming up on CSPAN 2's BookTV right now!

[Lex]

From 1998. About 1 hour.

Just started.

[lonestarnot]

1. Ahhhh. Hard to watch.

[Lex]

2. Yes, I'm finding that as well.

1998 seems like several lifetimes ago if you follow politics.

[lonestarnot]

3. Yes it does.

Makes me feel even older. Prissy language turned her off, me too!

[lonestarnot]

4. "Poor snirks"

[Lex]

5. "sumbitch"

loved her description of that . . .

[lonestarnot]

7. "biness"

I love listening to her period. She will be missed as much as she was admired! :toast: to Molly.

[Kurovski]

9. Don't forget the "D" there, now

"bidness"

[Kurovski]

8. I tend to agree, you ol' sumbitch!

:-)

[Kurovski]

6. Kick

if you miss it, you'll be a poor "snerk"!:-)

[lonestarnot]

10. and Elvis's funeral!

[lonestarnot]

11. THE SHIT LIST! GOD I LOVE HER!

:applause: :cry:

[lonestarnot]

12. Oh my God Roy Cohn! (sp!) despicable indeed!

[Warpy]

13. "meaner than a skillet fulla rattlesnakes"

certainly describes the far right, "using government punitively."

"Actively stupid" pegged Delay.

It hurts that she's gone, to be reminded what we've lost. I wouldn't miss this for the world, though.

[Lex]

14. NOTE: This REPLAYS in the morning (Sunday am) at 9:30 am (EST)

if you missed it this time.

[screembloodymurder]

15. This isn't a quote, but I loved the way she described

her view of politics. It's not about left or right, it's about top to bottom. It's much easier to see who is screwing who when you look at it that way.
