Even though the truthiness factor of "California hating America and therefore doesn't teach American history" certainly feels spot-on, the facts don't quite line up. "The only thing that would be outrageous would be if this were true," Colbert said, before rolling a clip of the chair of the history department at Cal State East Bay expressing confusion of why Santorum couldn't simply look up the course catalog online before spewing such misstatements. In fairness, Santorum may not be particularly keen on Googling things.

Gold Metal Flake
(13,805 posts)He should have been shouted out of the race for calling the President a "government nig...". We all know the rest of the word he tried to cut off as it was halfway out of his mouth.
But the corporate "liberals" at the top of the "liberal media" have chosen to keep him in the race.
