I'm overjoyed to see the flood of fond remembrances for Molly Ivins, all across the Web, in print, and over the air. I don't have any words that seem sufficiently distinct to add. If you've read this blog for a while, you know how I felt about her.
On the night that she died, I started to compile some links to the better pieces that I saw, but … there's no need. You can find them.
There is one link that I'd like to offer, however: Betmo has posted a great picture. It must have been taken very recently. You can see clearly what cancer, and the attempted treatments, have done. But check out that toughness, and check out that smile.
Makes me wish I'd never used the word "hero" before, so I had it in reserve for this moment.
