A Guide to PirateBallerina Churchilliana


Our library of Churchill prevarications, misdirections, and general arcania has grown very large, and, we're afraid, largely unread. As a public service, we offer a refresher course in our coverage of Ward Churchill:

We noted back in February that academia would attempt to recast the debate over Churchill as a "freedom of speech" and "academic freedom" issue. And that's what's happened.

We compiled a basic Churchill history as well as a chronology of life events to assist readers and researchers alike.

We shed light on his scholarly pretentions back in March

We were first to publish a four-page rant by one of Churchill's ex-wives, M. Annette Jaimes (scooping The Denver Post , which earned us a huffily dismissive reference to PB from the DP in the bargain)

We were first to publish a plea for support from Churchill's current wife, Natsu Taylor Saito

We parsed Churchill's incendiary "On the Justice of Roosting Chickens" essay to show that he meant everyone in the twin towers, not just the bankers, when he said "these technocrats of empire."

We catalogued Churchill's numerous "invitations to violence" (we explain why we call them invitations rather than incitements in the essay).

We refuted his UKB membership as anything but honorary back in February.

In March, we highlighted an apparent identity theft by Churchill (still unnoticed by the MSM).

We showed he couldn't be anything more than 1/64th Native American weeks before the Rocky Mountain News did—and then we assisted the RMN with its genealogy that pared the possible "blood quantum" down to 1/128th.

... and that's all in addition to our huge compilation of newspaper articles, essays, and editorials covering the Churchill debacle. Patting ourselves on the back, are we? Why shouldn't we? After all, if our stuff is good enough for WorldNetDaily to steal, it's certainly good enough to brag about.
