The Seven Faces of "Dr." Churchill
Academia’s everyman.
__________________________________________
Does Ward Churchill even exist?
Dr., Native American, original artist, serious
scholar, combat veteran, highly recruited and
sought-after academic, ex-Weatherman mentor:
How many - if any - of these seven faces of
our real-life Dr. Lao are true?
Professors outside the arts at major research
universities are supposed to have Ph.D.s. The
phantom Ward Churchill does not. How he was hired,
promoted, and tenured without a doctorate is a
mystery - the equivalent of a high-school teacher
credentialed with an AA degree, or a medical doctor
operating without an M.D.
Ward Churchill proclaimed that he is a Native American
of various tribal affiliations; he is not. Even his
ridiculous costumes, occasional threats, and puerile
rants cannot disguise that fact.
He seems to be a pop artist of sorts, but his canvasses
are not quite his own either. Those of like political
mind have praised his scholarship, but much of what he
writes seems derivative, or misrepresents or outright
plagiarizes others.
Churchill has spoken of the firsthand trauma of battle
service as a combat veteran, both as a paratrooper and
as a sniper - among the most hazardous of corps in the
United States military. Once again, there is no such
evidence that he served in any capacity other than what
his official duties in a motor pool and as a projectionist
entailed.
Embarrassed officials claim Churchill was sought after
by other universities - so they had to reel in this trophy
catch before he got away - but no one can find any proof
other than Churchill’s own mendacious claims.
No one knows what to make of his various arrests, boasts
of bomb-making, trip to Libya, angry and traumatized
ex-wives, braggadocio about petty vandalism, tales of
phone threats, and the variety of other sordid stories
that surround this fabricated man. Churchill’s presence
on campus is like the weaving driver who is pulled over
by the state police, who quickly find no license,
registration, or insurance, but plenty of warrants - and
thus wonder how many other paroled miscreants they’ve
missed out there, one accident away from being a
public-relations nightmare.
So, again, does this Ward Churchill even exist?
Of course not: His faces are made up of whole cloth.
Yet instead of seeing Churchill as no man, it is better
to envision him as an academic everyman. In the alternate
universe of the modern campus, any collective imbalance of
wealth, education, health, happiness, or almost anything
is explicable only in terms of deliberate present
discrimination and systematic past oppression.
Any other exegesis - cultural attitudes, individual
preferences, bad personal choices and behaviors, time
off for child-rearing, bad luck - is irrelevant. Indeed,
to raise them is prima facie evidence of one’s own
discrimination, intolerance, and racism, and can lead
to the academic guillotine. Ask Harvard president Larry
Summers.
Instead, equality of result is to be mandated by a
government that in turn is to be instructed on how
to do so by the university. Its cadres of subsidized
social scientists and humanists provide both the rigged
diagnosis and the lucrative therapy. Thus, to succeed
on campus without a degree or talent or much of anything,
it is absolutely critical to be an ideologue of the
first order.
Churchill’s rantings are full of leftist hyperbole,
vicious Nazi allusions, and calls for violence against
the United States ("more 9/11s are necessary") and an
end to America itself ("There’s no U.S. in America
anymore"). Should Churchill have been such a vicious
court jester of the Right and slurred gays and
minorities as he did the victims of mass murder, he
would have been fired long ago.
Rule 1: Profess to be as far left as possible,
understanding that extremism in the service of
utopian virtue is no vice.
Most academics are retiring sorts. They enjoy the
tranquility of the campus and its isolation from the
conundrum of society at large. But like peaceful sheep
grazing in green pastures, they are easy prey for
rapacious wolves. Professors are especially vulnerable
to a bully and showman like Churchill, whose record of
both oral and written intimidation leaves most disturbed,
frightened, or at least convinced to steer clear of this
loose loud popgun when he goes off.
Note then his evocation of past bomb-making, his
photo-ops in fatigues with obligatory machine gun,
and his occasional brushes with the law.
Rule 2: Among the nerds and dorks, act a little like a
Brando, Che, or James Dean, a wild spirit that gives off
a spark of danger, who can at a distance titillate Walter
Mitty-like admirers and closer up scare off the more sober
censors.
Victimization is essential to academic man. Under the
warped tenets into which affirmative action has devolved
and the existing protocols of the blame industry, at first
glance this put a pink heterosexual American male like
Churchill in a seemingly tough bind. What cover or exemption,
after all, is there when his scholarship, teaching, or
academic citizenship is found wanting?
That dilemma Churchill solved brilliantly when he endowed
himself with two new unimpeachable personas: the noble but
victimized Native American, and the half-noble but
nevertheless traumatized Vietnam veteran.
Both costumes were eerie in their cleverness: In Colorado,
with its Western heritage and abundance of Native Americans,
the frontier past is especially touchy and ripe for exploitation.
And while it is harder for a pale white man to simply declare
himself one day black or Hispanic, fraudulently identifying
oneself as a quarter, eighth, or sixteenth American Indian has
been a roguish American pastime since the onset of affirmative
action. Even before that, 1950s Hollywood showed how quite a lot
of white people like Ward Churchill can indeed pass as Indians,
if they grow their hair long, get a beaded headband, and put on
some tassels and buckskins. But instead of the 1950s Kemosabe
lingo, by 2005, the script had evolved to add shades and scream
about massacres, genocide, and getting even.
If Malibu and Burbank actors playing braves and chiefs once
taught suburban Americans how to reinvent themselves as Nez
Perce warriors, so too Deer Hunter, Apocalypse Now, and Rambo
reinvented the Vietnam veteran as the misunderstood anti-hero.
Under the changed protocols, the once-slurred "war criminal"
of the 1960s was in the ‘70s and ‘80s reinvented as a
sympathetic "victim" who was "used" by the military-industrial
complex.
Indeed, the only other persona more faked by American con
artists than the Native American is the tortured Vietnam
War combat veteran - especially on the campus, where
military service is rare and first-hand revelations of
its horror are at a premium, lending a hard masculine
edge felt to be sometimes lacking in the world of Volvo
fender-benders, elbow-patched tweed, and seminar droning.
In short, Churchill’s Indian and Vietnam-veteran pseudo-
affiliations - replete with long hair, camouflage, and
sunglasses getup - were worth at least a Ph.D. from
Harvard.
Rule 3: Whenever possible, reinvent yourself as anything
but a white, straight American male.
The short resurrected career of Bill Ayers, the former
1960s terrorist, showed how nostalgic the tenured class
is for the barricades of the 1960s. The only thing that
cut short Ayers’s glitzy book tour in autumn 2001 was the
catastrophe of 9/11. That coincidence unfortunately
reminded even the most diehard SDS fans that terrorist
killers and bombers are hardly idealists but rather repulsive
thugs and two-bit murderers.
Although most American males at the plant and office
nearing their 60s are thinking of grandchildren, Social
Security, paying off the mortgage, and Vioxx and Viagra,
a post-menopausal Churchill sensed the romanticism of the
1960s that lingered among his colleagues and the mystery
the period connoted for a new generation of upscale,
rite-of-passage college students.
Recalcitrant, unbending, immobile, a throw-back to a
better, more idealistic age - this is the rock-cut
image that the perpetual ‘60s professor taps into. And
Churchill, with his photo-studio manufactured profile,
pageboy locks, occasional fake Indian name, hip street
lingo, and sassy banter did it better than any we’ve
seen in quite a while - or at least well enough to wow
the flabby university committees that allowed him to
cash in.
Rule 4. Don’t worry about the anti-capitalist’s
embarrassing six-figure salary, plush job, lifelong
guaranteed employment, and fondness for jet travel
and hotels. Just keep acting like an ageless denizen
of the Woodstock nation, professing to be a timeless
dagger pointed at the heart of money-grubbing square
America.
So who really is this strange creature who calls himself
Keezjunnahbeh? The Paris Hilton of the campus, a Peter
Sellers-like fraud in his own Being There, or a Tony
Randall turning into all sorts of strange beasts in Dr.
Lao’s circus? He is nobody in fact, but also everybody
in theory.
Perhaps it is best to think of Churchill as our aging
portrait of an academic Dorian Gray, in whom all the
once-hallowed university’s vices and sins of the last
half-century are now so deeply etched and lined.

Who in their right mind could disagree with that point???
Also....was he the professor who got into trouble for supposedly flunking a student on a test, when they refused to answer a question that was something like: "Explain why George W. Bush is not a terrorist?" I did read that the accusation was totally false, and the incident was nothing like that, at all. Even the school said so. If that was indeed him, they were talking about. I don't remember, for sure.
Then finally, here is an snippet of his very own words....something I'd be willing to bet LV has never, ever glanced at. (As I said, I don't know that much about him....I'm not defending him...but let's at least see what he has to say, before we line him up in front of the firing squad....eh?!?!?)
-------------------------------------------------
"The great bulk of my scholarly work has been devoted to documenting the United States' disregard for law and the resulting violence it has perpetrated both domestically and internationally. I believe that such practices inevitably breed violence in response, and that the most effective way to ensure the security of all peoples is adherence to the Constitution and international law, particularly the laws of war and fundamental human rights law.
As citizens, it is our collective responsibility to ensure such compliance with law. This is the actual meaning of the quote on Arabs misrepresented by Caplis and Silverman in both their ad and their Op-Ed. My point was that it is our job to halt the criminal conduct of the U.S. government, rather than leaving the task to those from other countries who suffer the consequences of its illegalities."
------------------------------------------------Strong words, for sure. But again, who could disagree with the points he makes? Be careful, because what you say will speak volumes about you, and the country you wish us to be. Personally, I prefer a society that follows the law....in particular, our own. Doing what you want, to get what you want--regardless of the law, makes one nothing more than a thug.
People like W, LV and many other Bushviks all seem to think it's OK for anyone to take what they want. Oil, for example. We need it, so it's rightfully ours. Get out of our way, or we'll trample you under our feet.
Think about what this attitude does to a society. These are folks who think laws don't apply to them...whether domestic or international. I'd be willing to bet that most Busheviks run stop signs, speed at least 10 mph over the limit and show total disregard for other "stupid rules", as they see fit. These are the fine examples being set for much of today's youth....and then we wonder why today's schools have such an unruly bunch of thugs?
Their parents taught them to be that way. But, it ain't only republicans who are guilty of that, either. It crosses all party lines and is the root of our troubles....
It's the freakin' AMERICAN WAY you sons of....
You get the idea....or, maybe you don't....and THAT is the problem.
It's a big world out there and we most certainly DO need to be concerned about how we conduct ourselves. Maybe Churchill gets that? Who knows. (again, I am not defending the guy....I know very little about him!) But I'll bet LV and the Busheviks think such an attitude is CRAP.
LV....you ever been outside of the USA? Besides Mexico & Canada, I mean???

than Osama. You and your socialist cronies, among
whom you certainly number the psycho asswipe
Ward Churchill, who A) is not an Indian, not one
bit, B) wasn't point man for a jungle recon team
(in fact, he was a jeep driver, with a secondary
MOS as a projector nerd) C) is as racist as they
come (I *personally*, with my own ears, heard this
shitball refer to the Italians in the Denver Columbus
Day parade as "our Soprano brothers," this while
he and a bunch of other phony-baloney leftist
assholes were copping face time on TV while
disrupting the parade) D) is a plagiarist, E) a liar, and
F) a self-admitted bomb maker for the Weather
Underground...you and your fellow travelers are
the *main* thing wrong with this country, and
you need to be removed. I personally don't
give a shit if this is accomplished by violence
or by any lesser means, but it needs to be done,
and it needs to be done *fast*.
Feel free to forward this to anywhere you
feel it will do the most good. Start with the
New York Fucking Times, why don't you.

I said---I am not defending the guy. In fact, I've only just started
looking into him. Duh!
And, once again, you make incorrect assumptions.
I am not a socialist. I disagree with you on many issues, but that does
not make me a socialist. In fact, my views keep me pretty far outside
of that group.
Why, when someone takes an opposing view from yours, do you immediately
begin to label them? You don't really know me. You only know that I
did not vote for W, I disagree with his dragging us into an illegal war,
and I think there are serious problems with our election system,
including FRAUD.
I like nothing about the current administration and how it only tells us
"it's" own version of the truth...which usually turns out to be untrue.
I dislike the way that anyone "on board" with the Busheviks attacks
everyone who might question what's going on.
Does that make me a socialist? Of course not. It makes me an American
who sees his country being ruined and destroyed, by a bunch of
self-centered idiots, who are too full of themeselves to realize the big
picture. And it 's people like you, are going to see to it that we go
right down the tubes with W.
Who's the real idiot? You have no idea.....dude.
Let's look at a couple of other "smart" things you said....

You obviously know more about him, than me (I'm assuming). I *told*
you, I'm just looking into the guy. Mostly, out of pure
curiosity....mostly because you've bashed him so much. I wanted to see
what all the noise is all about.

Naturally, you can back that up, with references? Not that I don't
believe you, but if you're going to say it publicly, you'd better
provide sources.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.....there you go again!!! Assuming things about me.
Basically, you're saying that anyone who doesn't share YOUR policital
views and worship the ground that W walks on, questions the lies, and
fails to line up like a good cow in the herd...needs "to be removed."
Further, you don't care if it's done by violent means? That's *your*
version of America????
Oh My!! And.....YOU think YOU are the good American????
Really?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! No kidding????
(ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
Yikes........doooode! You really have to get out more.......(try
