Those unpatriotic California universities don't teach US history!

...or so says Rick Santorum

“I was just reading something last night from the state of California. And that the California universities — I think it’s seven or eight of the California system of universities — don’t even teach an American history course. It’s not even available to be taught.”

Everything about that is correct except for the words "don't even teach an American history course". All of the UCs and Cal state universities teach american history courses except for the medical school at SF State. Do Rickie's supporters just ignore factual corrections of the garbage that spills out of his mouth? He seems completely unencumbered by facts.

Rick forgot to mention that he read that at rightwingchockfullonuts.com.

You would think that a faithful Catholic would know about the 9th commandment....

Of course not. They teach Godless History of America to students who will Teach Our Young To Deny God !

Sheesh. When will this guy stop getting his speech material from The Onion ? He's Dan Quayle with 'roid rage.

Well, they shouldn't teach it!

But they do because they do a piss-poor job of teaching it in high K-12.

Ricky's gig is up for now. It'll be funny to watch him and Mitty share the same stage at the RNC.

Now that will make for some good TV.
