The REAL Problem with Ward Churchill!
Ward Churchill, the whacked out leftist college professor, is prolonging his 10 minutes of fame, thanks to a lot of folks who are easliy bent out of shape by what people say. I guess it's that "right to not be offended" issue raising its ugly head again. If you need a little background on Dr. Churchill, go here and here and way too many other places.
I don't see the big deal really, and I wish people who knew better would just shut up and let him make a fool of himself. Maybe it's good in one sense to protest his rants so more people will see how radical he and others like him in academia really are...as are those who support him. Still, enough is enough.
Don't get me wrong; I hardly support him, but I wholeheartedly believe he has every right on God's green earth to spout whatever tripe he wishes. Likewise, parents, patrons, sponsors, administrators, etc have every right in the world to cut him off financially. Let him speak out!
BUT, and this is a big but; those on the opposite side of his leftist idealism have the same freedom of speech, including those who eschew "alternative lifestyles" and/or abortion. Freedom of speech is a freedom for everyone, regardless of their political bent. Diversity and tolerance, remember?
So if you are on the conservative side of the isle demanding the removal of this demented professor, whereof do you speak, O' short-sighted one? Don't you know that the left wants to curb your speech (as well as your thoughts)? What goes around comes around, so you best be careful who you want to shut up.
Now, here's the real scoop on this Churchill character...and this may very well be the cause of his ultimate demise, from the left, no less. The most disgusting thing about this man is that he smokes! Yup!! No kidding! You'd think as a left-wing, professorial, academic, politically correct elitist, he would know better. I wouldn't have believed it myself, but I witnessed the disgusting crime firsthand, myself, on FoxNews (those bastards!). He actually had the gall to take a big drag on a cigarette in front of the cameras. This may be the end of his tenure! Free speech be damned! He smokes!!!
