I’ve been reading Molly Ivins for longer than there has been a blogosphere, and she virtually never disappoints. And Juan Cole and Riverbend are my regular sources for what is going on in Iraq. As you say, Bryan, the recognition is well deserved.
Molly used to be a regular feature in Gannett newspapers, so I started reading her going back to the mid-1970s.
