I support Ward Churchill's right to free speech and I do not support any action that would revoke his tenure on the grounds of what he has published or said publicly.

The Constitution does not grant the authority to the federal goverment to infringe upon Ward Churchill's freedom of speech. The Bill of Rights further clarifies the matter. However, the Constitution does not prohibit the University of Colorado from canning this guy.

No, but if got canned for that specifically he would have good grounds to sue the university for violation of his civil rights. And he would probably win.
