I am curious, and none of the links showed it, but do those colleges/universities offer a course literally called "American History"? Since some people are pretending that Obama's recent statement about the Supreme Court was no big deal, it is fine to pretend Santorum was talking about a course specifically called "American History".

A vast swath of high schools call their course in American history "American History", so we can even use that to as support for our dive into lala land.

Sound good?

Agreed. The entire system has become a politically polarized training ground for the left's "progressive" movement. Of whom they have in the name of "social justice" pretty much hijacked the level of discourse and debate in the UC and CSU system by shouting down and completely dismissing those with dissenting voices. A recent article from a Debra J. Saunders at the SF Chronicle lays it out better then Rick's clumsy statements.

Ha ha, WTF? Do you believe everything that you make up?

Interesting to hear about how fucked up the UC system is from people who didn't go there. It is, without a doubt, the finest public university system in the United States.

I'm a product of the UC system. It is the finest in the country.

Ha ha, no. California State Community College is not part of the UC system.

EDIT: if you went to a real school you would know that Lincoln was a Liberal.

Rick Santorum has killed 20 young boys for ritualistic sex practices.

That specifically may not be accurate, but he has some bad policies. So it's all good to say it.

I wasn't commenting about Santorum. I don't give a fuck what he says. He's a corporatist fuckwit just like Obama, Bush, and that mormon guy. They can all go to hell.

I'm just saying that the CSU and UC programs suck.

I never said that some of the universities in the UC system aren't great...some of them are.

I simply said that there are lots of problems with the UC and CSU systems as a whole and the politics behind them.
