David Lane, Mr. Churchill´s attorney, argued that the university caved under pressure from the "howling mob," which he described as a nationwide conservative smear campaign aimed at destroying Mr. Churchill´s reputation.

There. Fixed it.

What a wimp. A real man would just go out and get another job.

“Churchill continues to be what he”

I guess it’s pretty easy to be coward when you have lawyer...maybe he would like to go to Camp Lejeune or Camp Pendleton and talk his non-sense...instead of from the insulated protection of a classroom...so what is this POS going to do that he actually has to work for a living — I’m pretty sure this no talent hack will find an audience of mushy heads somewhere that needs a leader — apparently 52% of voting American’s are easily buffaloed...

These old, left-over, stinky hippies can’t die soon enough for me. (Churchill, Ayers, libtard professors).

For anyone following this, how is it likely to play out?

Given the sensibilities of a Boulder jury, who knows.

The book “United in Hate” helps to understand what is wrong with the circuits in liberals’ brains that makes them love jihadi murderers so much.
This guy loves them - deport him to a jihadi-loving country.

With all of this publicity, he should try writing a book that isn’t plagiarized. He’ll have no trouble finding a ghostwriter. Maybe Ayers is available.

Maybe he could be a speechwriter for Joe Biden.
