"I've always said George Bush's chemical dependency problem has nothing to do with cocaine; it has to do with Dow and Monsanto. They were the forces that put him in office down in Texas."
- Molly Ivins, talking about her new book Bushwacked: Life in George W. Bush's America on BookTV. This particular part of her talk was about the gutting of Superfund. Another beauty: "I've always thought that the only questions in goverment are who's gettin' screwed, and who's doin' the screwin." She also had a great quote from Mussolini: "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, because it is the merger of corporate and government power." Okay, one more: "Ann Richards says that the price of gas in Texas has gotten so high that women who want to run over their husbands have to carpool now."
At the same link, you can also find Al Franken's diatribe on right-wing lies. Definitely worth a listen.
