SynopsisIn her long-awaited new collection, the Colt Peacekeeper of American political humor draws a bead on targets that range from the Libido-in-Chief to Newt Gingrich, campaign funny-money to the legislative lunacy of her native Texas--and hits a bull's-eye every time. Whether she's writing about Bill Clinton ("The Rodney Dangerfield of presidents"), Bob Dole ("Dole contributed perhaps the funniest line of the year with his immortal observation that tobacco is not addictive but that too much milk might be bad for us.The check from the dairy lobby must have been late that week"), or cultural trends ("I saw a restaurant in Seattle that specialized in latte and barbecue.Barbecue and latte.I came home immediately"), Molly takes on the issues of the day with her trademark good sense and inimitable wit., In her long-awaited new collection, the Colt Peacekeeper of American political humor draws a bead on targets that range from the Libido-in-Chief to Newt Gingrich, campaign funny-money to the legislative lunacy of her native Texas--and hits a bull's-eye every time.

Priceless humorous and political writing! Most enjoyable.
Ivins as one of the funniest writers ever. For her day, she was also politically astute, although not as "woke" about BOTH the nation's oldest political parties as some of today's political writers. Whenever I read Ivins, I learn new vocabulary words and some new things about the national and Texas politics of her day. And, perhaps most importantly, I laugh. Also, as a collection of short-ish essays, her books are very easy to pick up and put down whenever a reader has a few spare minutes. Ivins' too early passing was a great loss to all readers and all Americans.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
