Only Molly Ivins can write about redneck politics in her native Texas and the discreet charm of the Bushwazee and manage to be both brutally honest and unabashedly affectionate.

"Ivins...combines political savvy with a wicked sense of humor....Highly recommended." Library Journal

Remarking in print that if a local politician?s IQ slipped any lower he would have to be watered twice a day provoked the title of the fine selections of essays by the funniest writer on the left. Taking on everything from Women in the south to the sacred subject of football Molly rides roughshod over hypocrisy and cant. A wonderful assemblage of social and political wisdom as pertinent and hilarious now as it was in 1991 when published

I absolutely adored this book. I thought it was beautifully written, especially Texas section... And I am from Texas. I thought it was great. If you have qualms with the government, and you want an honest take about just where our tax money is going, read this.
