"Tonight, embattled University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill issued a statement defending his scholarship and threatening the school for attempting to fire him."
What is this "attempt" crud?
YOU'RE FIRED!
Get out and never darken these halls again!
SEEYABYE
"Instead, they indulged in a repetition of the "Scopes Monkey Trial," presuming to assert the "truth" of the various historical and legal questions involved, in a manner comfortable to themselves and to those they seemingly perceive as comprising the "American mainstream.""
What a surprise. He doesn't know anything about the Scopes trial either.

Art signed by Prof. Ward Churchill
Bear in mind that CU didn't even get into his art fraud.
Churchill is poster-weasel for the End Tenure movement.
I sincerely wish this POS would just go out and hang himself
LOL!
I didnt know there were that many left handed indians in the world much less all in one battle like that :-)
My, my, such a bad attitude. Fire him for that too. As part Cherokee I'm ashamed he claims to be part Cherokee, chuckle.
Indian Princess "Dances with Baloney" ponders defeat, failure and unemployment...
"I'm not really an Indian Princess, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night..."
All he wrote is totally irrelevant to whether or not he engaged in research misconduct.
Did he plagiarize?
They've got the examples from Churchill and the places from which he copied.
Whether you were fired or not is also irrelevant. The ONLY relevant consideration is that a liar like you is not teaching.....but please try Berkeley. They are always hiring elitist lying @ssholes.
Now if some Freeper could just use these two images, with the fraudulent one mirror-imaged, in an animated overlay, that would be fun to have. At least then most of the Indians would appear right-handed.
I just loved seeing Dan Rather's memo alternating with the easy-to-create copy. It helped illustrate that the fraud was not just similar to the re-creation, but virtually lacked any differences. Every detail lined up.
Churchill could try to claim that he was "inspired" by the original, but the alignment of virtually every detail will reveal that there was no artistic contribution from Churchill whatever. It is an outright fraud.
The Undead
Under his arguments, since he can believe anything he wants, there is no such thing as research misconduct!
Clever.
But how does that excuse blatant lies in his footnotes, clearly proven by the report and not addressed in his rebuttal at all?
D
He claimed the original artist gave him permission to use his painting. A claim that cannot be substantiated because the original artist is dead, but his son claims he would never have given such permission.
thats an awful long reply to a humongous document that just came out that same day- when did he have a chance to read it and to compose this lengthy letter?
