#1 Just a thought; If Winston were alive, he'd probably thrash the living crap out of someone who so freely tarnishes the name. Either that or Winne would come up with some devastating quip that'd memorialize Ward's conspicuous lack of manhood throughout the ages.

#2 I was hoping they would put him in front of the firing squad.

#3 If you act like a lightning rod, don't act surprised that you're struck by lightning.

The American Civil Liberties Union and its Colorado chapter released an open letter Thursday urging the regents to reject Brown's recommendation that Churchill be fired, saying it could create a dangerous precedent by chilling public debate.

"The cure for unpopular speech is public debate, not silencing a voice you don't want to hear," said Cathryn Hazouri, executive director of the Colorado ACLU.

So it's the ACLU's position that academic fraud is a protected form of free speech?

I think my surprise meter's broken. It's not showing ANYTHING.

#5 Wardo's lawyers are looking forward to the termination so they can get the lawsuit filed. That, and Wardo the Fake Injun, will continue to be paid his salary during the length of the lawsuit...including CU will have to pay his legal expenses by the tenure rules. Sue for free, get
paid by the 'little Eichmans' forever?

#6 "CU might end up paying him money if they do fire him," she said

And there they are! The magic words!

#7 I'm guessing this will be the topic on Fox's half hour Comedy news show on Sunday's. That show is a kick. One of the few I actually check the clock and tune in to. "Im the ACLU".
