VERBATIM POST
========
Poor Ward Churchill, nobody likes him, everybody hates him. He should go out in the garden and eat his own words.In the latest in a series of rejections suffered by the disgraced former CU Boulder professor, Ward Churchill's planned Memorial Day speech was canceled by the Unitarian Universalist Church in Grand Junction, CO.
The Confluence Media Collective, publishers of The Red Pill, is the Western Colorado, extreme-left, off-the-charts wacko organization which invited Churchill to speak. The Unitarian leadership cited complaints from people in their congregation who have family members serving in the United States military.
Ward Churchill has often spoken out against servicemen and women, and Americans in general, in the most offensive terms. He once wrote a fraudulent report which accused the United States Army of committing "smallpox genocide" against Native Americans. He once said of U.S. foreign policy, "When you kill 500K children in order to impose your will on other countries, then you shouldn't be surprised when somebody responds in kind." And of course the infamous quote which thrust him to the nadir of professorial esteem was his description of the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, "They were targeting those little Eichmanns. These were legitimate targets."
Ward Churchill was fired from Colorado University in Boulder in 2007 for "repeated intentional academic misconduct." The firing resulted not from his noxious comments about victims of terrorism, or his virulent anti-American rantings, but from proven instances of plagiarism, duplicitous writings, and questions about his unsubstantiated claim of having a Native American heritage. Since that time Churchill has had to seek comfort and support from the most odious enclaves of the fringe left as he has flailed about, trying to prove that he is relevant.
The most recent Churchill sighting took place two weeks ago in Tucson where the local school board was conducting a meeting addressing a highly controversial "ethnic studies" curriculum. Churchill is seen on video, egging on snarky, teenage agitators, in an pathetic effort to look substantive.
So he stalks whatever protest du jour he thinks might restore his much missed notoriety. He is a reprobate without a cause. But there are always a handful of misguided Marxist revolutionaries who will identify with his hatred of America and the free market and individual liberty. Ward Churchill will probably find another venue in Western Colorado at which to spew his anarchist drivel. I hear that there is a space under a bridge near downtown Grand Junction where he can supplement his scant audience with a few pigeons.
