Cockburn, like Adorno, thought the semi-colon was the punctuation mark for the modern era. What he hated was the epidemic of dashes that plagued submissions to CounterPunch starting in the Bush era. I was ordered to banish them all, but like Birnam Wood they just kept advancing. — PolitiTweet.org

With Biden in power, Andy was back in his element. He wrote trenchantly about the Democrats, dissecting their internal tensions, hypocrisies and contradictions. These last few months his writing was getting sharper and sharper. That said, it's the loss of Andy as a friend that... — PolitiTweet.org

he wasn't one to look back. Andy wrote long, roving pieces (too long for many readers trained on tweets) that dug into issues, turning them upside down and inside out. Like many of us, he'd gotten bored with writing about Trump after about 6 months. What was there new to say? — PolitiTweet.org

His first two books were on Rousseau and they were, unlike much political theory, immanently readable, even as they digested some thorny and now archaic concepts. I kept bugging him to return to Rousseau & the essay on inequality but that was in the rearview mirror and... — PolitiTweet.org

I was shocked to learn this morning of the death my friend and longtime contributor to CounterPunch, Andy Levine. Andy was only 76 and had enough fire in his pen for another 10 years of political invective. Andy was a political philosopher with an agile and original mind.... — PolitiTweet.org

Perhaps it survived because, except for Levon, they were a bunch of Canadians performing faux-rockabilly? Levon stopped playing it, even at his Woodstock barn gigs, allegedly because he hated what Joan Baez had done to it, though he was full tall tales and bullshit. — PolitiTweet.org

CJ will certainly shoot a lot as he did last night, going 3-16, so he can tell Jennifer he tried. Dame needs to demand a trade. He's wasting the best years of one of the best careers in the history of NBA on a franchise which is just happy to make playoffs. He deserves titles. — PolitiTweet.org
