Have A Good Time While You're Fight'n For Freedom

So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds,
but don't you forget to have fun doin' it.
Lord, let your laughter ring forth.
Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats,
rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce.
And when you get through kickin' ass
and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight,
be sure to tell those who come after
how much fun it was.
- Molly Ivans

You know, I still miss her.

From Creators.com:

There was more to Molly Ivins than insightful political commentary packaged in an aw-shucks Southern charm. In the coming days, much will be made of Molly's contributions to the liberal cause, how important she was as an authentic female voice on opinion pages across the country, her passionate and eloquent defense of the poorest and the weakest among us against the corruption of the most powerful, and the joy she took in celebrating the uniqueness of American culture -- and all of this is true. But more than that, Molly Ivins was a woman who loved and cared deeply for the world around her. And her warm and generous spirit was apparent in all her words and deeds.

Just imagine what she'd have to say these days.

Bless you, Molly.

Hav'n fun out here,

Sia
