Check out the Washington Post’s reporting on Obama’s campaign push at black churches–part of a “three-city gospel concert series over the weekend” throughout South Carolina. You’ll motice how there is none of the anti-religious alarmism that regularly infuses the ominous coverage of Republicans and the “Religious Right.” Whereas religious conservatives are cast as brainwashed sheep (see David Limbaugh’s excellent “Persecution“), Obama’s followers of faith are treated respectfully. They’re hip, earnest, and “innovative:”

Each concert stirs some of the fervor that typified the Obama campaign in its early days. As the gospel acts perform, people rise to their feet, mothers hug daughters, old friends reach out to one another and then embrace strangers. Couples hold each other tight. Some close their eyes and sway in their seats. In Greenwood, most of the room is drawn to the stage, leaping up and down as if it were a mosh pit. The concerts’ playbook was open to innovation. In North Charleston, the sister combo of Mary Mary recalled Beverly Crawford to the stage after her set, asking her to sing a few lines of her song “Praise Jehovah.” The following night, with the show running long, Byron Cage did an impromptu set with a group of young liturgical dancers before he jumped from the stage to jam with the believers who had surrounded the stage.“We’ve got the faith,” Obama senior adviser Rick Wade tells those assembled on the first evening. “But now it’s time to go to work.”

U. of Colorado President: Fire Ward Churchill
***

Below is an old article by Victor David Hansen on National Review from March 24, 2005
I find it remarkable that this fool is allowed to teach at a major University. The bigger fools are the people who take his classes.
Good for the CU president for speaking out and exposing this fraud.

Churchill, Rosie and Ron Paul can start a new show “A Fools View.” What is kind of disturbing is that the show would do pretty well, there are a lot of moronic people who agree with these Moonbats.

(Article Link) 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.

 More overly sensitive anti-Christmas shit.
You know I never gave a crap about putting up exterior Christmas lights and decorations, but if I continue to see more of this crap I may change my tune.

Hell I find idiotic [tag]liberal[/tag] bumper stickers on cars offensive.

Where is the damm ACLU!?  

The Rabbi and the Central Organization for Jewish Learning sure don’t understand how to win friends and influence people … they’ve trumped the ACLU … now it is the Christmas tree under attack. Go to Israel, Rabbi. You are perverse, stupid, and worst of all, petty.

Take Down the Christmas Tree

The Port allowed “holiday” decorations to remain but decided to take down all the [tag]Christmas[/tag] trees after a Jewish religious leader complained they were offensive.

“It’s a Christmas tree! It’s not like they were displaying crucifixes or menorahs or anything religious, but [tag]Christmas trees[/tag] that have been around here for years,” said an employee who asked not to be identified.

The Port of Seattle says it had little choice. It says a [tag]Seattle[/tag] rabbi with the [tag]Central Organization for Jewish Learning[/tag] hired an attorney and threatened to sue if the airport did not erect an eight-foot menorah to balance the message of the Christmas trees.

Well Rabbi … you know what you and your fellow COJL members can do with your eight-foot menorah.

From a Fox News article:

After consulting with lawyers, port staff believed that adding the menorah would have required adding symbols for other religions and cultures in the Northwest. The holidays are the busiest season at the airport, Betancourt said, and staff didn’t have time to play cultural anthropologists.

The rabbi and his lawyer are “horrified” …

“They’ve darkened the hall instead of turning the lights up,” said his lawyer, Harvey Grad. “There is a concern here that the Jewish community will be portrayed as the Grinch.”

A valid concern … next time, be careful what you ask for …
