[Vision2020] The recent death of two leftists

[Sue Hovey]

And neither was William Raspberry a liberal.  The National Review might define him as one, but, speaking for myself only, this liberal found him arrogant.  Case in point...his final line in the article about Jim Comer.  Now there’s a truly intelligent, compassionate liberal.  If one really wants to know James Comer, in his book Maggie’s American Dream, he tells of his mother and her place in the forming of his educational philosophy.  Nice book, wonderful man.

I thoroughly disagree with your assessment of Cockburn, Roger. I think it's nonsense and  utterly meaningless. How often did you read him? 

I looked forward to his Friday Counterpunch columns and will miss his brave writing.
