A friend calls me with his fantasies about Evan.<\/p>\n
Here’s some background on Goldstein<\/a>, Berkowitz<\/a> and Gahr<\/a>.<\/p>\n Friend: "Instead of the talking dog, he’s got the talking chimp. I can see the stuffed animal talking to him in the middle of the night. ‘You need to kill! Operation Chiquita!’ Then unloads a clip into a bunch of school kids.<\/p>\n "I can see Evan doing the perp walk with an evil smirk on his face. It’ll be like something out of the Stephen King book, ‘The Dead Zone.’ I don’t even have to shake his hand. I already know how this will turn out.<\/p>\n "He’ll be saying, ‘Chimpstein told me to kill.’<\/p>\n "He’ll be represented by the ghost of William Kuntsler.<\/p>\n "Maybe they’ll furlough Collin Ferguson to represent him."<\/p>\n Ferguson was a killer who represented himself after shooting a bunch of people on the Long Island railroad in a fit of black rage.<\/p>\n Surprisingly, he was convicted.<\/p>\n Friend: "Can you imagine who would be called as witnesses in this thing? David Horowitz. Sean Hannity. Paul Weyrich. The only person to have to take a ramp on to the witness stand. Linda Chavez. It will be a who’s who of conservative journalism and punditry.<\/p>\n "They’ll be reading from his columns. The Obama-rapper column he just did<\/a>.<\/p>\n "He’s like a latter-day Berkowitz. They’ll need to make a movie — Summer of Evan.<\/p>\n "The letters he’d be sending to the New York Post: ‘You ended my column but not my spree! I’m too prolific to be stopped.’<\/p>\n "You’ll get the exclusive. He’ll give you the first interview when he calls you from Rikers Island collect.<\/p>\n "And you’d have to raise money to pay your phone bill because you’re accepting these collect phone calls."<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A friend calls me with his fantasies about Evan.
