we can always look back on the days of Molly and Barbara Jordan.

We produced and then lost two of the best in the country. God, are they ever missed.

When the bushes, cruz, our guv and guv lite are gone, no one will miss them. Molly is missed.

Pertinent as always, and nice to reflect on her productive life.

Thanx for posting. RIP

Your OP has made it imperative that I go hunt up all her books I own! Harder than it seems - we recently moved and, as I was in the hospital on moving weekend, spouse just dumped books in boxes, and no labels.............. sigh; poor baby, he really DID have it rough that weekend!

Many a time freedom has been rolled back - and always for the same sorry reason: fear.
