Colorado Univ Prof Churchill to Speak at Wisc School, as planned(U.of Wisc needs to be FReeped!)
The Denver Post ^ | 2/11/2005 | staff

Ward Churchill, the University of Colorado professor who compared World Trade Center victims to Nazi leader Adolf Eichmann, will be allowed to speak, as planned, at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater on March 1.

The school's chancellor said the decision to let Churchill speak was repugnant but necessary under First Amendment principles of free speech.

The decision Thursday sparked outrage among Wisconsin lawmakers, who said they would ask the UW system president to block the speech.

UW-Whitewater chancellor Jack Miller said in a statement he decided to honor an invitation for Churchill to speak at the campus, 40 miles southeast of Madison. But he laid out requirements he said must be met to ensure the speech goes off as planned, including assurances the university can guarantee the safety of the campus, visitors and Churchill.

I just E-mail Governor Doyle that if he allows this, it is equivalent to him calling the thousands of WTC murder victims "little Eichmanns".

If Doyle doesn't stop this, he is toast.

I will not give this man any more hype! He will be like Michael Moore and make millions due to the hype from the Conservative side. This will cause the Left to love this man all the more and the media will coddle and love him like a gentle puppy.

I feel the same way. LOL at your description of how the media "will coddle and love him like a gentle puppy". How precious.:)

There's a ton of those UWs out there so it's not easy to keep them straight. UW Milwaukee is the one Richie Cunningham went to in the 1950s.

We haven't heard from Herb Kohl either, another WI Dem, who is about to announce he's running for relection to the US senate.

"I just heard that the UW person who was in charge of scheduling these sorts of things has resigned."

We need Wisconson and Illinois Freepers (prefferably blonde blue eyed ones) to dress as Indians and heckle him. If it is good enough for him to pretend to be an Indian...
