Farhan Chak is not a liar

He just has a really, really good imagination...

Farhan Mujahid Chak has some problems on his hands. I'm going to add a new one to this list.

His doctorate from the University of Durham?

No such thing.
Even if former Professor Dion can somehow overlook Chak's firearms arrest, this man has apparently also violated the sacred academic tenet of fictionalising his credentials.

How about it, Steffi... no big deal here either?

We've all seen how Liberals in the House of Commons have played "fast and loose" with the truth about Taliban detainees in Afghanistan.

Who also knew it was a pre-requisite for Liberal candidacy?

Steve Janke did.

UPDATE: Plenty of time to complete PhD now...

Farhan Chak has flunked out.
But what appears to have been the last straw for the Liberal party came Thursday when a blogger revealed that Mr. Chak never earned a PhD from the University of Durham in England, as claimed on his website.

Mr. Janke - I understand you are are a prejudicial individual who has no idea how academics works so I will try to explain it to you.

Farhan Chak has submitted his thesis, you have lied about that. You have also contacted the wrong people to confirm anything.

Only thing left for Mr. Chak is to complete his defence which is called a VIVA.

Perhaps you should restrict your viewpoints to commenting on your Klu Klux Klan buddies as well as the male baldness crew.

Geez... look what I found at "Angry in the Great White North"...

The comment here is a straight cut-and-paste from AGWN... doesn't even stop to get my name right...

Anybody else notice the syntax seems a little shaky here?

So Anonymous/Jennifer/Farhan... what's up with that?

Can we now add transvestite to Mr. Chak's credentials?

Actually, the e-mail from Durham University says he has not submitted his thesis.

look, it's simple... chak said he had a doctorate when he knew hadn't completed the work required for a doctorate.

where i come from... that's called "a lie".

but hey, don't take my word for it... here's an experiment you can try yourself.

1. go to the nearest airport and try rent a plane.

2. the rental company will ask to see your pilots licence.

3. explain that you are a pilot, but that you just didn't take, never mind pass... the final exam.

report back here with your findings.
