Remembering Molly Ivins

Tony Blair has long been the favourite international leader of a Texan
named George Bush. But not all Texans have shared the sentiment.
Indeed, the US is in mourning over the passing of a Texan who thought
the British prime minister a bit too willing to play the poodle in his
relationship with the American president.
Molly Ivins, the wisecracking veteran journalist from the Lone Star
State and the most widely-circulated liberal columnist in the United
States, succumbed Wednesday evening at age 62 to what she referred to
as "a scorching case of cancer". That cancer silenced the Bush
administration's sharpest critic at precisely the moment when the rest
of the US media is finally rising from bended knee to challenge the
president. It also removed from the American discourse one of the few
popular commentators who regularly reported on - and frequently
reported from - Britain.
