The DUmmies have asked this poll question, “Is Ward Churchill wrong?” and, as expected, most of them answered in the NEGATIVE as you can see in this DUmmie THREAD. Is it really any surprise that the DUmmies overwhelmingly support the Nutty Professor? What is interesting is just how many other liberal/leftists out there have similar views as the DUmmies on Churchill. Churchill’s only “sin” to many liberals is that he spoke his heinous views out loud or didn’t hide it in the typical package of professorial mumbo jumbo as many other professors have done. As usual the DUmmies expressions of support for Ward Churchill are in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent is in the [brackets]:
I personally am having trouble percieving exactly what he said that is wrong. I understand the emotional reactions to his words and ideas. But after setting aside the initial emotions I fail to find fault in his rhetoric.
[You have trouble perceiving that it is wrong to say that the office workers at the WTC deserved to die on 9-11 because they were “Little Eichmans” as Ward Churchill characterized them? Welcome to DUmmieland Morality.]
Geaux Prof. Churchill!!!
[The appropriately namedDUmmie Swamp Rat cheerleads the Nutty Professor.]
I think the things Antrhax Annie and a good number of Freepers say are much worse. I understand hyperbole to make a point--and his point is clearly that not only were the 9/11 victims complicit, we all are complicit in America's foreign policy--but I also understand that on the right you find outright hatred of anyone not 'lucky' enough to be born white and in the USA.
[DUmmie NewHampshireDem, a Ward Churchill wannabee.]
Uh, he IS white and was born in the USA. He claims to be 3/16 native American, though even this now seems to be in dispute.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
I think he's right & I don't presume to tell anyone how to deliver their message !! I have felt for a long time now, that it takes the loud ones, the outrageous ones, the "extremists" to move the thinking of the 'average person'.
[Outrageous and extremists: that description fits the DUmmies perfectly.]
I say "GO, Ward Churchill" !!!
[Any doubt as to where DUmmie sympathies are? Something to remember the next time Chris Heinz enters DUmmieland and panders to them.]
Ward Churchill is scum. He said the victims of 9/11 deserved their fate. I don't see how anybody could say something much worse.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
Did you hear all the students cheering him during his speech? Watch the video. He gets plenty of applause. I agree he hasn't much in common with liberalism, but you're wrong about academia. I worked at a University for 6 years. There are plenty of Ward Churchills around, students and professors.
[YUP! And don’t forget DUmmieland. There are plenty of Ward Churchills there too.]
What he says is nothing but the logical truth of the matter. This country has committed acts of terror in the name of national security since its inception.
[Congratulations. You application to become a CU professor has been ACCEPTED!]
I really wanted to stand up for Churchill, because he made a lot of good sense. But he killed himself, absolutely killed himself, with the Eichmann's comment. Godwin's Law all over again: The first person to use Nazis in an argument automatically loses. This wasn't even the 'Bush is a Nazi' chestnut. He used it in reference to the people who got blasted sideways out of a hundred story building. Is wildly unrestrained capitalism a prime reason for social and financial inequity? An excellent argument can be made on that score. Did the Towers represent that? Certainly, that's why they were targeted. Is American foreign policy over the past fifty years - in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Egypt - a reason why we don't make a lot of top ten lists in that part of the world? That's a no-brainer. But to throw a loaded symbol like Eichmann into the fray brings utter ruin to whatever point was in the offing, unfortunately. It was a pungent phrase, and I am sure as a writer that he felt a little thrill when he wrote it. But he blew his foot off with that one.
[Thank you for your input, Pied Piper Pitt. So you actually agree with the Nutty Professor but you just don’t like the way he packaged his message. You have a LOT of company among the liberals/leftists.]
¡Ay, Chihuahua!
¡Epa, Jackie!
If there's any money involved, you know Je$$e Jacka$$ will be there in a jiffy.
And they always say that WE'RE the lemmings! Or the "sheeple".
I think the professor is trying to get a job in europe, he be tired of CU
The DUmmies , if Bush said don't jump off the bridge . We would have a bunch of floating DUmmies ;-)
Oh, but you forgot -- we're "selfish", and we don't give neeeeeeeearly enough $$$ in foreign aid. Isn't that what that noodge at the UN said, that we should be "happy" to have our taxes raised so we can give more foreign aid? Never mind all of the billion$ in private donation$.
Remember how some of the DUmmies were saying that explosives had been planted in the WTC towers to bring them down?
I had an interesting conversation with the nurse at my cardiologist's the other day. He was telling me that on
9/11, he was with a patient (at a hospital?) who had been part of the team that built the WTC towers. They saw the first tower on fire on TV, and saw the 2nd plane hit. The nurse told me that the man was in tears, and said, "They'd better get all of those people out of there NOW! Those buildings are coming down." Explained that it had to do with the heat generated by the burning jet fuel. No explosives needed.
One of them shouted out, "How do you find things here in Hell?"
He answered, "Just as I expected, all the professors are the closest to the fire."
Okay, since you DUmmies are so miopic, I'll spell it out to you.
Churchill said we were attacked on 9/11 because of our foreign policy that imposed sanctions on Iraq that caused their babies to be killed. The hi-jackers were acting out in retribution.
How can this be? Based on their own reality and talking points, there was no connection between Al-Qaeda and Iraq, and Iraq was not connected to the 9/11 attacks. Wherefore comes the retribution? Why did 19 Saudi nationals act out in retribution against the U.S. for sanctions that killed Iraqi babies? Or are we killing Saudi babies too? We're killing our own babies at a rate of 2.3 per minute through legal abortions alone (based on CDC statistics - search: abortion statistics). What about the number of babies killed by muslims in Sudan? Rwanda? Democratic Republic of Congo? Do they not count because we didn't kill them? Ward Churchill is a liar and a fraud, anyone who finds particular merit or justification in his words is anti-American and should be treated as such.
we wished it were unrestrained
Por mirando a Jackie Guerrido, la prognosticadora del tiempo. Y que es su prognostication hoy, Jackie, sobre la tempuratura en Las Gran Tetons?
You guys can't fool me, I know you're not speaking English...
My Lady has native blood- but doesn't brag about it or try to play the "race card" (okay, in this case a Blood Quota Card saying you are a government-approved Indian) to get jobs or special treatment.
She was active in AIM "back in the day" and suspects she was on an FBI watch list. She's also very conservative.
She believes (as I do) that the Professor's comments meet the definition of Treason in the United States Code and that he should be arrested and tried on that charge.
How can Professor Churchill mourn the deaths of innocent women and children at Wounded Knee, then turn around and say 9/11 was justified?
The Cherokee tried that. (In case you don't know, they were originally an eastern tribe.) They settled down, adopted white ways, lived in peace with their neighbors. And as thanks for making peace instead of war, we sent them on the Trail of Tears.
Here in New York, we did it the Yankee way- just swindled them out of their land (as recent court decisions have upheld.)
Yes, the university system in the United States, some of it supported by taxpayer dollars, is a fortification of the radical left in America today. The universities, mainstream media, entertainment industry and parts of the mainline Protestantism and Catholicism.
Hmm. . . With the long hair, he does look a lot like my Lady. Maybe he really IS Indian!
Something's missing, though. The look of predatory intelligence in my Lady's eyes.
