...it's not dark yet, but it's gettin' there...
Michelle Malkin has news on the latest outrage from chief CU liar Ward Churchill. Be sure to check out the description text in the eBay link, which repeats the Native American credentials lie, which even Churchill has admitted to.
What a kook.
CHURCHILL IS A FRAUD!!!

I just posted the last part of Henry Rollins' song "Liar," in which each occurrence of the word "lie" hyperlinked to a blog purposely full of lies.
I should have saved one of those hyperlinks for Ward Churchill.
Posted by: Ontario Emperor on Feb. 26, 2005One of the lousy things about tenure is that I feel compelled to defend everyone who has it, even the likes of Ward. It isn't easy, but as s loyal member of my teacher's union, I want to see him shamed and censured -- but I want him to keep his job. Old boys network, loyalty, that sort of thing.
Posted by: Hugo on Feb. 26, 2005Hugo, I wouldn't think you would have an obligation to defend someone who appears to have obtained tenure under false pretenses, i.e., saying he was an Indian. Indeed, I'd think you'd have an argument for firing him on that basis precisely to DEFEND tenure.
Myself, I think tenure is outmoded and needs to be radically overhauled, if not abolished. How about tenure term limits? You'd get, what, ten or fifteen years and can say or do anything, but at the end of the term you're out among the rest of the poor shlubs, and no option of renewal at the same institution. It'd be completely politically neutral, and yet provide for more turnover.
Posted by: Dave J on Feb. 26, 2005Time for Churchill to fold his tepee and go quietly to the happy hunting grounds.
Perhaps his Indian name, "Forked tongue" should have raised some suspicions?
Bye Ward. Don't let the door slam as you leave.
