The liberal-biased media are good and pissed about Dan Rather-gate, and are
going all out to find something, anything, that will make up for it.


But after trumpheting their triumph over some guy who asked `too soft' a
question, one wonders where their `investigative' powers are with `this'
little tidbit:


The sad saga of Left-frothing University of Colorado Ethnic Studies
Professor Ward Churchill reached a new low this week, as an examination
of his past writings revealed this among its incendiary tidbits:
"One of the things I've suggested is that it may be that more 9/11s
are necessary." Earlier revelations of Churchill's admiration for the
9/11 Jihadi attacks suggested that the victims, going about their work,
were akin to Nazis -- and deserved to be targeted.

This week, Churchill almost suffered the (deserved) indignity of having
a speech at his home campus cancelled. Too bad the fulminating address
came off without a hitch. For his part, Colorado Gov. Bill Owens is
exploring the possibility of terminating Churchill's employment. The
nutty professor declaimed, "I'm not backing off an inch. I owe no
one an apology. ... I do not work for the taxpayers of the state of
Colorado. I do not work for Bill Owens. I work for you. ... The Board
of Regents should do its job, and let me do mine." Fine. Let Churchill's
university salary be rescinded -- as it does come from taxpayer dollars
-- and let him be paid instead by those students who genuinely wish to
hear him sling his rubbish.


If you look at this Churchill person closely, you see that he is a liar and a
fraud, who's `teaching' credentials and credibility, are about on a par with
a well-known resident of Sheboygan, Wisconsin.


Yet, where's the outrage from the press? They can get obsessive about a guy
who asks the president `too soft' a question, but a liar and fraud teaching
in a major university gets a pass? Gee, no bias there.
