Ann Richards

She said,

"I did not want my tombstone to read, 'She kept a really clean house.' I think I'd like them to remember me by saying 'She opened clean government to everyone,'"

but she's not going to get her wish. Everyone is going to remember her for that foot line. She said George Bush Sr. was born with a silver foot in his mouth. They can't stop repeating that. NPR ran her obituary at least every fifteen minutes today, and every time, it was the silver foot. It's a pretty good line, I guess. But if that's all they can think of to say, I'd rather have the clean house one on my tombstone.
