how he lied about being a Native American...
Ward Churchill has been masquerading as an Indian for years behind his dark glasses and beaded headband. He waves around an honorary membership card that at one time was issued to anyone by the Keetoowah Tribe of Oklahoma....
how he lied about his service in Vietnam...
Questions also remain about Churchill's résumé. In a version provided to American Design by either Churchill or one of his publishers, he says he served with the 101st Airborne Division during the Vietnam War. Military records, however, show he worked as a light-truck driver in South Vietnam....
how he copied an artist's work and claimed it as his own (until being discovered)...

The original drawing by Thomas Mails, top,
and professor Ward Churchill’s disputed piece.
Churchill told KCNC-Channel 4 last week that he had permission to use Mails' work in his art. However, Mails has died...
Last night Churchill spoke in Wisconsin, calling the U.S. a facist state...insisting again that he is Cherokee and stating that 9/11 wasn't senseless...
I think it time for Ward Churchill to be removed from his position at CU...
He is entitled to free speech...we all are...but it is time for the government subsidized paychecks to stop!
As a taxpaying American, I am calling on the University of Colorado to remove this phony...if, for no other reason, that he was hired under false pretenses!
