Looks like Professor Doctor Indian Scholar Ward Churchill has landed on his feet: He's the opening act for hip-hop and punk/"tribal grind core" bands. (ht Leah)
Excerpt:

Activist Ward Churchill will speak at a benefit for the traditional O'odham resisting oppression and abuse by US Border Patrol agents and protesting the construction of the US/Mexico border wall in their traditional homeland.

[...]

Churchill will speak at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Tucson, 4831 W. 22nd St., on November 13, 2009 at 7:00 p.m.

Churchill's talk is part of the "Apartheid in America: Surviving Occupation in O'odham Lands" gathering, which features a concert by Resistant Culture, a punk rock/metal band from Southern California.
What? No punch and pie?
A delicious vegetarian meal will be served at 6:30 p.m.
Guess that'll have to do.

Hiring a comedian to open for the band is the way of my people.

  — Noj - 16 October '09 - 15:27
Right on Noj and a comedian wannabe at that. Sure hope the Perfesser is saving the "honorariums" to repay us taxpayers the 52K that he owes CU.

Should I hold my breath?

  — willibeaux - 17 October '09 - 12:59
He's not funny; he's just "funny."

  — jwpaine () (URL) - 17 October '09 - 13:51
Not funny at all, just odd...

  — Cattledog - 17 October '09 - 17:06
I see David Lane has picked up the "bubble boy's" parents as a client. He did so well for Wardo, let us hope his stellar performance is repeated for this new client.

  — CU Alumni () - 18 October '09 - 18:27
David Lane specializes in representing hucksers, apparently.

  — Mike - 19 October '09 - 11:48
Hucksters, that is.

  — Mike - 19 October '09 - 11:49
Since this will probably be a criminal case, how will Lane (if he wins) collect any fee? Maybe he is feeling generous and is taking the case pro bono.

  — willibeaux - 19 October '09 - 14:23
Hucksters with high visibility. Lane gets huge free advertising out of it. As Barnum said, all publicity is good publicity. What's Lane got to lose? It's not like he's gonna get jailed, fined, or fired. That's what his clients are there for.

  — jwpaine () (URL) - 19 October '09 - 19:13
What no pemmican?

  — Allen () - 19 October '09 - 19:31
If anybody can, Pemmican. Lane is a whore, there's no question about that. The Balloon Boy case has nothing political about it, but there's ol' Dave stickin' his ugly old hooded-eyed mug in there. Crapless & Silverfish (h/t you-know-who) keep saying what a wonderful lawyer he is, but he's not. His opposition, for whatever reasons, is just generally weak (tho isn't it wonderful how O'R set that little quasi-immunity time-bomb on him?). He's a prick, and he deserves to be saddled with Wart for the rest of his life.

  — jgm () (URL) - 20 October '09 - 19:47
Wouldn't he just be a slut?

  — Backfat - 20 October '09 - 21:44
Also: "Lane told the media he expected his clients to comply fully and "turn themselves in", and that he hoped to avoid the "spectacle and humiliation" of a situation in which the couple would be arrested in public and/or in front of their children."



Sounds like he's really just a lawyer.

  — Backfat - 20 October '09 - 21:48
You guys are so cynical.

  — jwpaine () (URL) - 21 October '09 - 08:38
Backfat: love the nic. Not quite sure why.

  — jgm () (URL) - 21 October '09 - 22:30
I've rather constantly been of the opinion that David Lane is not very competent. His flunky Qusair likewise.

  — SPQR () (URL) - 23 October '09 - 21:06
Test.

  — jgm () (URL) - 23 October '09 - 21:46
SPQR: Definitely overrated.



And the comment I originally meant to post:



Noj off the planet!

  — jgm () (URL) - 23 October '09 - 21:49
Now Lane is smearing Bolloon Boy's mom's English. That is so racist!

  — Noj - 24 October '09 - 13:30
I just hope that Churchill, Means, et al get to testify at the trial about how there may indeed be some greater truth in lying to the white man in order to secure a reality show for one's family. I seem to recall that reality telivision was first invented by the ancient Aztec...

  — Klaymore - 24 October '09 - 17:11
Guess what? Channel 7 just announced that the Pefesser's attorney, Algonquin J Calhoun (David Lane) says that the Sheriff of Larimer County should be prosecuted rather than his client, Richard Heene.

  — willi - 27 October '09 - 15:17
Lane always puts his adversary on trial.



At the very least, it muddies the water. At best, it exonerates his client by proxy.

  — jwpaine () (URL) - 27 October '09 - 16:22
"A delicious vegetarian meal will be served". What in the world is "a delicious vegetarian meal"? What is meant by "delicious"?

Somebody hepp the boy.

  — willi - 28 October '09 - 15:14
Yeah Willi, vegetables are gross! Where are my pixie sticks?! Screw you guys, I'm gonna go ride my bigwheel.

  — Backfat - 28 October '09 - 21:32
Mmmmm, pixie sticks wrapped in backfat.

  — jgm () (URL) - 02 November '09 - 15:13
This must be where all the Ward Churchill groupies hang out. I thought the guy was dead, but I guess you want him to LIVE FOREVER.

  — Grant Crowell - 07 November '09 - 03:20
We can't resist. He's sooo kewl!

  — jwpaine () (URL) - 07 November '09 - 12:14
"I thought the guy was dead, but I guess you want him to LIVE FOREVER."



No, just long enough for his Incan stint to explode.

  — Noj - 07 November '09 - 14:33
Heh.



So, exactly what are you doing these days, Grantastic? Still trying to get that camera back from Fotopolous? Jesus. I know you're just a kid (well, not anymore), so I cut you some slack, but damn, you're stupid. And self-regarding.

  — jgm () (URL) - 07 November '09 - 19:16
Is there Grant Crowell sock-puppeting in play, or is that really him? I mean, sorry, it's hard to tell.

  — Wm T Sherman () - 07 November '09 - 20:37
Well, that's certainly possible, Sherm, but I don't think so. He's been making dumb comments like that for a couple of years now. I think it has something to do with the failure of his efforts to put together a Wart-doco, and his resentment at people who continue to be fascinated by stuff that no longer engages him, because there's no money in it.



Also, he's still mad that P. Fotopoulos (think I spelled it right that time) allegedly stole his camera after Grantastic loaned it to him in an abortive attempt to record an early Wart-meet. Pathetic shit.



So Grant, again, watcha doin' these days? And why do you feel the need to denigrate those who think Wart (huge loser that he is) is still a symbol of the lefty takeover of the universities?

  — jgm () (URL) - 09 November '09 - 15:45
Truthforce Junior now lives in Phoenix, so Wardo will have a futon to crash on when he opens for the band. Which is good that he's saving the motel rent, since he's no longer collecting that fat salary.

  — Noj - 09 November '09 - 20:27
Noj,

You typed the wrong city. Akilah (aka Truthforce Jr.) lives in Tucson, not Phoenix.

  — Leah - 10 November '09 - 09:01
Off the subject! Sorry! Happy Birthday to all of the Marines posting here today and thank you for your service.



An old AF Korean War vet

  — willibeaux - 10 November '09 - 10:23
Korean War? Was that before or after the invention of the crossbow, willi?



BTW: Some of the igneous rocks on my ranch say to say "Hi!"

  — jwpaine () (URL) - 10 November '09 - 13:29
Some of the rocks in my head say "Hi!" too, willi. JWP: all about the callback.

  — jgm () (URL) - 10 November '09 - 15:50
JW! As far as I can remember in my 80 years, I believe it was before the invention of the crossbow, but I'm not sure. Tell the rocks I said hi!!

Tell Leroy all is well.

  — willibeaux () - 10 November '09 - 16:18
Happy Veterans Day to all of the Vets posting here.



One vet to another.

  — willibeaux () - 11 November '09 - 11:13
I'm not a vet. Thank you for your service.

  — Wm T Sherman () - 11 November '09 - 13:56
And lets not forget to thank Ward Churchill for editing the battalion newsletter and projecting movies for the boys.

  — Noj - 11 November '09 - 16:20
Yes, willi, thanks for your service. And you too, jwp.



When I graduated from high school, Vietnam was all over, and the military was regarded (by hippie punks like me, at least) as the lowest form of human life.



How things change.



Wouldn't it be cool to see a list of the movies Churchill showed the troops?

  — jgm () (URL) - 11 November '09 - 18:12
By the way, Churchill wasn't a LRRP, he was a SLRRP.

  — jgm () (URL) - 11 November '09 - 18:16
Geez! Only less than 4 1/2 hours before the "delicious vegetarian meal" is served. I can visualize Leroy's mouth already watering.

  — willibeaux - 13 November '09 - 14:12
SLLRP.

  — jgm () (URL) - 13 November '09 - 18:32
Chutch is traveling the rubber tofu circuit.

  — Wm T Sherman () - 14 November '09 - 11:28
Most of Churchill's audience looked like they were there for the free food. It's the kind of church soup kitchen where you have to suffer through a sermon before you get your meal.



And what's with giving those people fry bread? They are too fat already. Those do-gooders really should serve them something more nutritious.

  — Noj - 15 November '09 - 15:12
Taking bets: Did Churchill sleep on Akilah's couch, or did he take the bed and make her crash in the living room?

  — Noj - 15 November '09 - 15:13
eh...

  — Backfat - 15 November '09 - 18:50
Churchill's act is at:

http://www.livestream.com/earthcycles

There are two videos titled "Live Show Fri Nov 13 2009". The one with Churchill has 06:20:55 PM as the second title line. Churchill begins about 20 minutes in.

  — Leah - 16 November '09 - 12:05
Dese are da hands of a workin man!

  — Charley Arthur - 16 November '09 - 13:03
Fuck.
