Ward Churchill, a University of Colorado professor who compared World Trade Center victims to Nazis, talked with reporters after his class.

A University of Colorado history professor, Eric Love, left, made a point while debating Isaiah Lechowit, president of the College Republicans.
Howard Dean finally has some competition for leader of the DNC.
To bad they don't mean burned at the stake. What a pathetic loser this guy is.
Since the University is already hemhorraging for funds. I do believe that CU Alumni can sit on, spend, or find better uses for future contributions to their Alma Mater.
Someone's going to cave. And I don't think it's going the be the students this time.
Jack.
Interesting picture. The photographer and/or editor obviously picked a shot that makes the Republican look unattractive. But I was glad to see that he at least wasn't letting the menacing-looking leftie professor intimidate him. A sign of progress.
Don't you love the pictures which show an angle (from below) that makes Churchill look imposing and show the Republican President look like he's unhinged. No, there's no bias there!
On top of all that this guy strikes me as being a typical ivory tower putz who drips arrogance with every word.
Sorry if the link requires a subscription, just google: Churchill Boulder Speech. Oh!, wait a sec, Ingraham has a link on her site to the Denver Post story.
What a whackjob! To quote another liberal whack, Larry O'Donnell, Churchill's a "creepy liar", with demented and fruit loops on top. I'd enjoy scalping the MF.
Churchill can say anything he wants, but the fact that he's probably lived his whole life off my tax dollars pisses me off.
I've got a brother (and his wife) who are liberal and they've both lived their whole professional lives off Gubmint grants. Something about living off the taxpayer's nipple turns people liberal.
Brother and Sislaw not whacks like this guy, just birkenstock granoly Kerry voters. Really great parents and all that. Besides, they both have PHd's in hard sciences and do good work for the rest of us in their labs, so I don't begrudge them their views.
After Ingraham, Hannity had on the guy that introduced Churchill at the speech, Russell Means, and, after putting up with him for while, tore him a new one.
Hannity ended up screaming at him. I can't remember exactly, but I think Hannity kept screaming "you're a scumbag!" at him. It was great!
p.s. I'm a few years younger than you, but had an appointment to the Naval Academy (Pop was a Col. so I was halfway there, the other half came from an NJ Eyetie Congressman).
I wanted the Naval Academy because I bought a little bike in high school and had developed a "need for speed". I asked Pop, and he said the best fighter jocks in the world were Naval Aviators.
They turned me down after the physical when I failed the color-blindness test. I didn't even know I was color-blind!
I still think about how different my life would have been, if I've been able to fly jets and kill bad guys, shortened though it might have been. I really wouldn't have minded.
I wonder if this putz has a bodyguard. He may need one.
It takes more than long hair, sunglasses and maybe a beaded headband to turn an English-Swiss-German into am American Indian!
If this idiot had used the N-Word, he'd already be long gone. This has nothing to do with Freedom of Speech.
Hadn't heard that Hannity had Russell Means on. Poor guy - I can't for the life of me tolerate Means. I've had the bad misfortune to have met him a number of times. He's an arrogant (insert lots of long, drawn out, and very foul venacular here), and doesn't have the brains of the average snail.
It takes a lot of balls to be the "heap big all-knowing Injun" when you had to learn how to put up a tipi from an Irishman. (True story; Means learned how from a friend of mine.)
It's not a free speech issue. It's an honesty issue. Churchill obtained his position under false pretenses -- he has no Native American blood. And, evidently, he never saw combat in Viet Nam and he wasn't a Ranger. Seems to have been a fork lift operator...
He used the N-word back when he affiliated himself with the Black Panthers. Unfortunately, he wasn't dark enough for them. Seems that he's not red enough for the tribal folk, either. Maybe someday he'll figure out what he really is...
Free speech is a right...but no one has the right to subsidized free speech.
Check his brain for Syphilis and then check it for dope.
He looks like an unoriginal, self-centered dopehead.
In point of fact, the University of Colorado will suffer, and not because Mr. Churchill has used inflammatory speech, but because he's a fake and a lousy professor. That doesn't count for much in academia these days, but it does to anyone who's about to plunk down a life savings for an education.
Churchill is nothing but a pompous windbag.
He even advertises it by wearing his cool shades indoors.
Didn't everybody know a kid like Churchill in high school? You know - - the kid who was always first to jump on the latest "style" bandwagon, whether it be Nehru collars or bell-bottom pants or "box" haircuts? And who was, to the core, a "follower" (never a leader) and who was so painfully aware of that fact that he was often irrationally contrarian in order to affect "rebelliousness" and "self-confidence"?
That's Churchill, to the bone. The guy is still 16.
People like Churchill usually have very few (if any) truly close friends because they know that sooner or later, with growing familiarity, close friends may accidentally get a peek under the mask and then realize that the whole persona that they thought they knew was nothing but the phony facade of an insecure weakling. That realization is rarely endearing.
(I didn't really mean to psycho-analyze the little pissant, but man!, I sure wish his fifteen minutes would hurry up and be over.)
Churchill is so ugly that he even looks stupid!!
