She made every day our party and gave us permission to cry if we want to, cry if we want to, cry if we want to.

She also was maybe the first woman to say to men "You don't own me."

I'm so sorry to read this, a rotten way for her to go out. I hate cancer.

My spirit honors hers ...

I got to see her a couple of years ago at THE FABULOUS PALM SPRINGS FOLLIES.

She was STILL great, lung cancer notwithstanding.

I was watching some old episodes of The Simpsons after rehearsal this evening and the "Marge on the Lam" episode came up, which includes Chief Wiggum popping in "Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows" for his "old-fashioned police chase" (after Ruth Powers accidentally puts it in to start the girls' night out with Marge before switching to "Welcome to the Jungle")

RIP, Ms. Gore.

Leslie Gore was also an out lesbian, so yay for her for everything.
