I'm scheduled to be a guest on "Collateral Damage" tonight with hosts D.J. Wilson and Fred Hessel and Steve Patterson of Urban Review STL. The show starts at 7:00 and can be heard on KDHX 88.1 FM or online at www.kdhx.org. Labels: PubDef_News
Topics likely to be discussed: Darlene Green and Jim Shrewsbury killing the BJC expansion deal, the race for Aldermanic President, and will there be a takeover of SLPS?
6 Comments:
There will be no state takeover of the schools?
Is that what he said?
Well, I am glad, but not completely optimistic.

Patterson should watch what he is printing and saying. He is getting very sloppy.

In the pd this morning, William Lacy Clay addressed the issue of the takeover as though it were a done deal----Antonio says it will not happen because of the local opposition.
They cannot both be right.

Actually, when Antonio said it, he was agreeing with my comment on my call, always a good move if you want to be right, incisive, prescient, cogent and smart. (And I made two other smart, I believe, comments on Forest Park and Ballpark Village.)
Then he took a cheap shot at me! (He made a stupid joke - if that's the best humor you got, dog, you got nothing- about my not being right often. First tell me where I've been wrong. Wont take long. Then will tell you where I've been right. That will take longer. And no one begrudges you earning a living, but covering a race you're being paid to consult on, dog, would you put in the right or wrong category, disclaimer or not? But I would have had the grace not to mention it.)
And he's always been like a god to me. And I wrote him calling him on it, and he didnt even the cahonnes to even respond.
I'm glad you got to tell a joke, my brother; tell a cheap and stupid and ignorant joke, lose a source and risk losing a friend. Wrong or right? Smart or not? Gratuituous disrespect says more about you than about me. I'm moving on; hope I'm not being too hard on you. Another good saying: I dont make the rules, I'm just trying to play the game. Enjoy the day.

Sometimes Bill Haas makes posts that I find appealing and wonderfully logical.
Sometimes his posts come across to me as puzzling.

same here! and thanks. I think. Maybe I'll be less sensitive when I'm a great alderman; maybe people wont feel so much like taking cheap shots, just cause I'm an easier target cause I'm out there, just to make themselves look and feel better.
