Tune in tonight for Happy Talk with Cokie Zahn!
The Heretik can't stand hearing that phrase.
And yeah, it's personal. Before The Heretik was at his desk reporting
from the mouth of hell, he was executive producer of the leading cable
news show. You can guess which one. So it shouldn't be hard for you
to figure how The Heretik ended up alongside the River Styx outside the
gates of hell. But it looks like things are changing at Happy Talk.
Looks like they may have a special guest on. The Heretik notes this
guy Jim Kunstler is the perfect guest for Happy Talk. The Heretik
would not call Kunstler Doctor Doom, but somebody else might. Kunstler
would be a Doctor Kevorkian on Happy Talk.
Says Kustler on the blobbing burbs, "You cannot overestimate the delusional thinking that the public will
bring to this effort. It will range from credentialed intellectual
figures such as Kotkin, to the lowliest Nascar morons defending their
entitlements to the American Dream."
From: Jim Kunstler.
Way to play to the Happy Talk audience, Jim. Don't back down
Don't know how to tell Jim,
but, "Nascar morons" isn't going to go over too well in Red State
Nation. A question: how come all the anti Commie conservatives are
in Red State Nation?
Why do The Most Righteous of The Most Right Side (The
Left) always refer to the less smart of the Less Right Side (The Right)
as "morons." That hottie libby lady Jeanne D'Arc at Body Soul calls
them "racist morons. Some jack named Polhemus went after The Heretik
for that when The Heretik quoted her calling guys like him morons.
Not The Heretik, dude. That's between you and her.
The Heretik is opened minded about those who oppose the Left (The Most Right Side tm).
Some on the right are just idiots. Some are smart, some smartmouthed.
The ideas you have now, they may have later. But it could go the other
way too. What ever you do, don't be right on an issue, at least not
too soon.
People have got to live somewhere and for a lot of people that's the
suburbs or the exurbs. The Heretik ask what kind of urbs are we
growing here?
The Heretik believes that people like Joel Kotkin who accept the
inevitablity of suburban sprawl probably haven't seen that Fifties
movie "The Blob." Not pretty. The Heretik look forward to the Joel
Kotkin Jim Kunstler debate. Mister Happy Talk meets Doctor
Joel Kotkin's views can be found here
There's talk of round the clock Happy Talk, like Law and Order only worse. The Heretik will try to get some sleep now
Before The Heretik was at his desk reporting from the mouth of hell, he was executive producer of the leading cable news show. You can guess which one.
You produced 700 Club?! Too cool for school. Can you get me Cokie Zahn's autograph? On my butt?

The Heretik asked me to relate to Mister NTodd that he should pick a cheek and he will get Ms Zahn to sign it. Full name or just Cokie?
The Heretik is very busy right now, but would like for me to say for him. Goood job, give yourself a pat on the back. Now get back to work.

The CultureGhost has been serving an eight year sentence in the Gulag SubUrbia. The CultureGhost believes it is for thought crimes against the petty bourgeoisie. Though the warders of the Gulag SubUrbia try to break The CultureGhost with the lure of bountiful food at theme-oriented restaurants, bright baubbles and sundry items at the tranquil mall and a sense of shared family values, The CultureGhost has not been broken.
