One for the good guys--maybe
Buyout talks, wherein the buyout price went from $10,000,000 to less than $500,000 within days, have stalled. It's all due to the fact that, as I posted before, Dalhousie University in Canada found that, in the opinion of their legal counsel, Ward Churchill had committed plagiarism. Not to mention the fact that he called a Canadian professor in the middle of the night and threatened her to the point that she is still terrified to come before the public with her story.
Interesting thing happening 'round Denver these days--Churchill's supporters have gone to ground. The most vocal, such as Russell Means, who screamed that Churchill had "100 %" Indian blood, have been absolutely silent for weeks. Maybe they finally get the picture? I mean, of course, the real one, not the picture flipped and colorized by Ward Churchill and sold as his own work...
Oh, and that's another thing! He will get at least $66,000 a year as pension regardless of whether he's fired or bought out. This money will come from investments made by the University of Colorado in his name. Funny as hell, if you ask me, as well as disgustingly tragic, that this "I hate America, I hate white men, I hate brokers, oh God you wouldn't believe how much I hate white American brokers!" will be living off of monies invested for him in the American stock market. Of course, he himself is a white American man, so if you add the pension into the mix, he must hate himself something fierce ;)
Note on the above paragraph in case any sue-happy WC supporters stop by ;) The quote isn't Chruchill's, it's satirical ;) LOL, how sick is it that I feel the need to put that disclaimer on my blog? The Russell Means "100 %" quote is, however, real. You've got to wonder how Means gets to that figure from a white German-English man who reportedly had slave-trading ancestors?
