The CPAC I saw
One of my favorite CPAC moments: Meeting Col. Bud Day, the nation’s most highly decorated soldier since General Douglas MacArthur, and Vietnam veteran Bob McMahon of the Vietnam Veterans Legacy Foundation
The Hot Air team spent the past three, jam-packed days and sleepless nights covering the Conservative Political Action Conference–meeting countless grass-roots activists, catching up with [...]
Ward Churchill cheered;
brands Bob Kerrey a “serial killer”
Fight the power Source: NYSun
The New School gave the nation’s preeminent moonbat academic a rousing reception. He returned the favor by trashing the college’s president, former Senator and Vietnam War veteran Bob Kerrey as a “mass murder and serial killer.” Via the NYSun:
An ethnic studies professor from the University of Colorado, Ward Churchill, received a [...]
Quick links: Chafee, Maher, Mehlman, Murtha
Three quick items–make that four:
1) Once again, I say good riddance to Lincoln Chafee:
Two days after losing a bid for a second term, Sen. Lincoln Chafee said he was unsure whether he would remain a Republican.
Chafee lost to Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in a race seen as a referendum on
President Bush and the GOP. On [...]
Most tasteless Halloween costume contest
My nominee:
Bill Maher as Steve Irwin.
John Kerry: Just dumb
Lurch falls flat
Lots of people are e-mailing me John Kerry’s remarks on the Bill Maher show last Friday and suggesting he has a Bush assassination fantasy.
I don’t think so. He was lamely trying to riff off a metaphor. Not bloodthirsty. Just really, really dumb.
Judge for yourselves. Warning: It is extremely painful to behold.
I know unhinged [...]
THE WARD CHURCHILL REPORT
It’s out today. Read it here (PDF file).
Pirate Ballerina, the blog that was central to pushing the story forward, has analysis and points to the bottom line of the report:
While we are unanimous in finding that Professor Churchill’s research misconduct is serious and that we should express the degree of that seriousness through a recommendation [...]
THE AMAZON.COM REVIEW CESSPOOL
Much has been made of the rabid Left’s online swarm that shut down the Washington Post’s blog comment section. The comments seemed comparatively tame to me. Maybe I’ll copy off Chapter 6 of Unhinged and send it off to the WaPo ombudsman and her editors to help them feel better.
Meantime, the moonbat manipulation of Amazon.com’s [...]
HOLLERING BACK AT JANEANE GAROFALO
She. Is. Mad.
I think you will get a kick out of my latest, Unhinged-themed column: “Who are you calling angry?”
Intro:
Janeane Garofalo, left-wing actress-turned-Air America radio host, is a miserable woman. Last week before the holidays, she turned up on cable TV. No, not to count her blessings but to rant against conservative journalist Bob [...]
BILL MAHER SLIMES THE BUSHES
You’ve no doubt heard or read of the scurrilous tabloid allegations being made by anonymous attackers about President Bush. Unhinged Bush haters are gleefully embracing the National Enquirer story and trashing the president. That is to be expected. It comes with the territory.
But what Bill Maher did to exploit the smear story on Friday night [...]
PROUD MARY KEEPS ON BURNIN’
Sen. Mary Landrieu reiterates her threat to punch President Bush.
And Bill Maher says Republicans need anger management?
WARD CHURCHILL AND ME
Counterpunch, a widely-read left-wing political newsletter edited by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair, published a rambling interview the other day with America’s nuttiest professor, Ward Churchill.
It seems I’ve gotten under the blithering professor’s skin. When the interview first appeared, Churchill was quoted accusing me of “blatant plagiarism” (screenshot via Shock and Blog) and lifting [...]
THE SEDITIOUS WARD CHURCHILL, PT II
The nuttiest professor’s fragging comments, blogged here three days ago with a big hat tip to the diligent folks at PirateBallerina, are now on video at Trey Jackson’s.
The Denver Post (which properly credits PB; good for them) reports that Churchill is, naturally, defending his latest smear.
Controversial University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill says he does [...]
THE SEDITIOUS WARD CHURCHILL
He just doesn’t shut up. Fortunately, the vigilant bloggers at Pirate Ballerina continue to track the nutty professor’s bloviations. At a forum on “conscientious objection and resistance to military recruiters” in Portland on Friday, Churchill seemed to suggest support for fragging–troops murdering their own on the battlefield–as an effective anti-war tactic.
PB has transcript excerpts and [...]
WHO’S HE CALLING A “MORAL RETARD?”
Meet Timothy Shortell, Brooklyn College’s recently-elected chairman of the school’s sociology department:
Shortell received 7 out of 12 faculty votes to secure his new position, despite (or perhaps because of) crackpot online rants comparing Karl Rove to Joseph Goebbels and attacking religious people as “moral retards.”
It says something that students are more outraged at Shortell’s election [...]
F**K: THE DOCUMENTARY
I received an interesting e-mail recently from Jory Weitz, the casting director of Napoleon Dynamite. Haven’t seen that movie yet, but my hubby loved it. Anyway, Weitz is now making a documentary all about the word “f**k” and “its effect on our everyday lives.”
Yes, “F**k.”
The Sundance people and elite movie critics are going to love [...]
WARD CHURCHILL AND MEChA: PERFECT TOGETHER
Scott at Slant Point reports on a match made in P.C. hell: left-wing loon Ward Churchill and America-hating ethnic grievance-mongerers MEChA.

WARD CHURCHILL: BULLYING CLAIM
The Denver Post has the latest Ward Churchill installment:
A previously unreported allegation of intimidation by University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill surfaced during a committee’s initial review of his work, but, like other threat complaints, it was not addressed by administrators.
The complaint was included in more than 150 pages of documents released Thursday that stemmed [...]
LIVEBLOGGING WARD CHURCHILL & BILL MAHER
Jeff Jarvis of BuzzMachine watched Bill Maher’s HBO show tonight, with special guest, nutty professor Ward Churchill. Here’s a sample of the absolute lunacy that Jarvis liveblogged:
Maher asks him whether fighting Hitler was wrong. Churchill says, “I wouldn’t say that opposing Hitler was wrong but some of the ways he was opposed were wrong.”
And this:
Maher [...]
TERESA’S DISGRACE & LAURA’S GRACE
Well, Teresa Heinz Kerry’s subdued act didn’t last long did it? By now, you’ve all read Her Highness’s condescending remarks about our First Lady Laura Bush. Teresa’s boneheaded ““apology” was even worse than the initial comments. Teresa managed to snub not only millions of teachers and librarians and Mrs. Bush’s 22 years of work as [...]
WHERE IN THE WORLD
I’ll be discussing my book in an in-studio interview on the John and Ken show (KFI Los Angeles) at 5 pm Pacific time today. I’ve been a John and Ken fan since they worked in Atlantic City, New Jersey, on WOND-AM. They moved to Southern California around the same time I did. I’ve [...]
