One of the nation's wittiest political pundits and three-time Pulitzer finalist, Molly Ivins says that politics is great entertainment: "better than the zoo, better than the circus, rougher than football, and even more aesthetically satisfying than baseball." Ivins, a renowned raconteuse, is the best-selling author of Molly Ivins Can't Say That, Can She? and Nothin' but Good Times Ahead, both collections of essays on politics. In Bushwacked, Ivins gives first-hand accounts of the effects of current, sometimes obscure, government policy on the lives of ordinary Americans.
