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.]

[MKM1960]

lemmings, cliff. I think the outcome is pretty obvious. At DU the pack mentality rules.

[Blue Jays]

Hi All-

The leftists are in agreement with Wacky Ward Churchill unless it is THEIR husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, son, daughter, nephew, niece, aunt, or uncle being blasted out the windows in a deadly fireball of burning aviation fuel.

Their pathological selfishness prevents them from seeing another viewpoint besides their own.

Disgusting dummies..but Ward has the real Indians after him now and he better call in the cavalry..They don't like "posers"...

Some have said that it is impossible to prove whether or not Churchill has Indian ancestry. I disagree. For example, if Churchill's ancestors can be traced back 3 generations and all of them came over from Europe then he definitely has NO Indian ancestors.

I am having her listen to English language radio to improve her English (native language is Spanish)

So PJ, is this the New Year's Eve hook-up? Can't go wrong with a latina. My ex-wife is Mexican.

[PJ-Comix]

I knew my girlfriend way before New Years Day. Anyway, she is a trained X-Ray tech from Venezuela but was having problems passing her X-Ray licensing exam here. She knows the technical aspects inside out but her English language skills were limited. Therefore I told her to listen to Rush a couple of hours a day. This she did and a couple of months later passed her basic X-Ray exam. Now she is studying for the general exam (same as the basic but with twice as many questions) so she is listening to English language radio quite a bit. Which is why she heard my PJ-Comix screen name on the radio today.

"The leftists are in agreement with Wacky Ward Churchill unless it is THEIR husband, wife, boyfriend..."

If their family member was a republican, they would still agree with him (Churchill) and think their loved one deserved it. I believe it was a DUFU thread that showed how much contempt they had toward family members who don't believe the way they do.

[Fenris6]

Unbelievable.

Churchill essentially called for action from the street, claiming more attacks were necessary to "wake us up".

Someone please wake me when someone finally decides to enforce our laws against sedition and treason. We still have those laws, right? Echo?

[techcor]

Interesting tidbit I read over there was that W. Churchill traveled to Libya in the early 80's when there were travel restrictions. He should've been arrested then for it. I suppose the statute of limitations has run out though.

Since I have been over there for over a year under different screen names, I can tell you, they have been breaking away from family members right and left. Especially in the days after the election. What gets me is they will post inane threads like "OMG! My Mother Voted for Bush!" and go on about how they want to exile themselves from their family. The thing is, a thread like that will get over 100+ responses all of them cheering him on. They are as faithful to their family as they are to America.

[ml1954]

But he blew his foot off with that one.

And hopefully his regular paycheck, not for his comments but for being a fraud. He's apparently too stupid to know that you don't want to attract too much negateive national attention to yourself when you're a fraud. He should be fired just for being that stupid.

[KJC1]

The DUmmies are collecting quite a list of people they defend and admire, because the only criteria seems to be bashing President Bush and/or the United States.
Ward Churchill
Hugo Chavez
Fidel Castro

Next thing you know, they'll be protesting to make our troops stop looking for Osama bin Laden and Zarqawi and to release Saddam Hussein. A fair number of them have said they are happy that Iran and North Korea have nukes, so we can almost add the Iranian mullahs and Kim Jong Il to the list.

[Jackson57]

I'm not sure that there is a statute of limitations on seditious activities. They're able to hunt down terrorists years after the crime.

[Jackson57]

I was stuck by that fact as well. Considering their condescening attitudes, is any wonder their families won't listen to them? Not to mention, the complete nonsense of their arguments.

[speed_addiction]

Not to mention, the complete nonsense of their arguments.

I dated a woman from Seattle who was very liberal and spouted all of the nonsense you hear on DU. It was only the fact she was very beautiful, had a hot body, and could fold up into more positions than a Swiss Army Knife that allowed me to tolerate her longer than I should have.

[Jackson57]

HAHAHA ... ok, you were working from the Big-head VS Little-head conundrum.

I've always said, LIBERAL CHICKS ARE EASY.

[SaveTheChief]

Do these reactions from DUmmieland really surprise anyone? I wouldn't be surprised at all if Ward Churchill is a DUmmie himself. The same rhetoric that has gained him national attention can be found at DU on a daily basis.

The DUmmie FUnnies makes this point beautifully.

[shezza]

Ward Churchill:
If I defined the state as being the problem, just what happens to the state? I’ve never fashioned myself to be a revolutionary[pfffft! yeah, right], but it’s part and parcel of what I’m talking about. You can create through consciousness a situation of flux [anarchy?], perhaps, in which something better can replace it. In instability there’s potential. That’s about as far as I go with revolutionary consciousness. I’m actually a de-evolutionary. I don’t want other people in charge of the apparatus of the state as the outcome of a socially transformative process that replicates oppression. I want the state gone: transform the situation to U.S. out of North America. U.S. off the planet. Out of existence altogether.

DUmmies:
I personally am having trouble percieving exactly what he said that is wrong.
I fail to find fault in his rhetoric.
I think he's right & I don't presume to tell anyone how to deliver their message !!
I say "GO, Ward Churchill" !!!
What he says is nothing but the logical truth of the matter.

Any questions?

Did not hurt that she was also quite rich. Quality Mortgage Financing in Seattle is hers. She would fly down to Texas to see me and stay a few days. Bought me a set of full leathers ($800), Arai helmet ($400) and Alpine Stars Boots($300) on one of her trips down here. Plus she always payed for the room, meals, everything.

[miskie]

I wonder how long it will be before groups like the ACLU and J.Jackson come to this professor's aid ?

And, when they don't how long it will be before the DUmmies start screaming fraud because of it ?
