The university has not publicly said if De Genova’s job as an assistant professor is in jeopardy over the scandal...

...but privately they've decided to promote him as soon as the noise level abates.

I just want to take this opportunity to thank the talented Dixie Chicks for lending their name to the English language. Yep, DeGenova is and will be dixiechicked!

About two dozen of his students took part in a silent protest on Tuesday, as they sat quietly outside in the rain

to show De Genova how he should have behaved if he actually used his head for anything besides a target for birds.

He wishes death on millions of people then whines when he receives a few threats.

My dear man, you obviously do not understand the rules. These are the rules:

When a liberal says "I want you soldiers to die," he is bravely invoking his freedom of speech.

When a conservative says, "And I want you commie scum to die," he is a cowardly oppressor committing a hate crime.

If you'd gone to college, you neanderthal, you'd know this. Now. Where's my double decaf mocha latte? And tell me, do these socks go with these sandals? Care for a blunt? Some patchouli? What's that awful smell... is that soap? Argh! That's like Kryptonite! Get that stuff out of here!

There must be a million Mogadishus that he can move to, and find a new job.

If someone martyred this guy and you were selected to serve on the martyrer's jury, would you vote to convict?

I would. His sentence would be a $50 fine, with the UN in charge of collecting it.

a Columbia University assistant professor who called for the bloody defeat of U.S. troops in Iraq refuses to die

I read it like this and wondered why -- why does he refuse to die?

Nicholas De Genova’s doctoral dissertation, entitled Working the Boundaries, Making the Difference: Race and Space in Mexican Chicago, explores socio-cultural processes implicated in the mutually constitutive productions of racialized difference and urban space in the experiences of Mexican migrant factory workers in Chicago. He has also published on the politics of rap music and popular cultural criticism in Transition (Fall 1995), and his essay “Gangster Rap and Nihilism in Black America: Some Questions of Life and Death” appeared in Social Text (Fall 1995).

My only response,

I will never hire another Columbia Graduate again. My response to any resume received from this institution will be:

Dear Candidate:

Unfortunately your credentials are quite substandard. Please understand to become a member of our highly qualified organization, you need to bring to the relationship a high standard of principles, and ethics. While your credentials might find you some exciting employment in exotic places like Iraq, we feel that our Fortune 500 clients require our consultants to be leaders with exposure to commendable life experiences. You present exposures have left you in somewhat of a deficiency in this area. Thank you for considering consulting. Please consider furthering you education in an environment that would lend you the capability to explore the above mentioned exposures and experiences.

Fine. I think we can find another two dozen more ropes

Nope...just 2 dozen more that can wake up bruised and confused, naked on a Cuban beach. What a great training op for Special Forces.

#1...When Mr.DeGenova finds that his car insurance company has dropped him, and even Geico wants $20,000 a month to insure him,(with at least $10,000,000 personal liability,)the final wake up calls for how stupid he is will be,

#2.... When he can't figure out why nobody will carpool with him,

#3 ... And every day after work, why is the nearest car next to his in the university parking lot at least 1500 feet away........
