Churchill did address the issue of his ethnicity, admitting that he is not Native American.

"Is he an Indian? Do we really care?" he said, quoting those he called his "white Republican" critics.

"Let's cut to the chase; I am not," he said.

More grist for the mill of EWU alumni protesting the university's decision to pay Churchill to speak at their event to honor Native Americans.

What really annoyed me(as someone who is 1/4 Native American) is throughout his speech he referred to Indians as "we" before admitting that he is not one. Most of his followers didn't seem to mind this contradiction, or even notice it.

I'm surprised it took 25 posts to get to the most important part of this column. The guy ADMITS he is a lying poser. Of course, that doesn't taint his others arguments at all, does it?

Since he has dropped out of the Indian race, maybe I'll take his slot. Hey, everyone! I'm an Indian. I can't prove it, but it's the thought that counts. It's your job to prove I'm not.
