Churchill steadfastly maintained that he is an Indian, claiming he is three-sixteenths Cherokee.

...and 13/16^ths 1960's VW bus.

If I recall correctly, his advanced degrees are suspicious, too.

cute :-}
now if you put the Indian headdress on the cat, that would probably come about as close as Churchill to being an Indian! LOL

What's Churchill's Cherokee name? Something suited to him ... hmm ... perhaps,

Lying Dog?
Brain Fell Out?
Doped Too Much?
Walking Fertilizer?
Pads His Resume?

"...his advanced degrees are suspicious, too."

More info, please?

Let's expose this fraud, bigtime!

"I am hoping that the citizens of Colorado will no longer be required to fund this crackpot's $95,000 yearly paycheck....one way or another. He has a right to free speech, but not a right to pick my pocket for a forum in which to express it."

That is the essence of the whole situation! Anyone can say anything they want--true, crazy or not--but on their own dime, not the taxpayers!

Don't forget, too, when Carol Standing Elk, president of the American Indian Movement (AIM), had him thrown out of the group, Churchill assaulted her and broke her wrist. We are talking about an older woman here, that he attacked and injured.

Sometimes it seems like half of everyone I know claims to be part Indian. There are a lot. Including 2 inlaws and half the neighborhood where I grew up in central VA.

Latest is the next door neighbors that moved in - whiter than I am, which means very white, narrow skulled, complete with a Jewish surname, normal looking American couple. They do hang an elk skull in their backyard during certain ceremonies, though :-P

Thanks for making me laugh!

That's one ugly NAG HAG! (Watch out, Helen, you have competition!)
