    Really, does the WSJ Op-Ed page have any cachet left? I would hold the info my 3 yr old tells me as more credible than what's printed there.

    With PAC and superPACs being what they are it should come as little surprise.

    This reminds me of some guy, don't know who it was, who was trying to pass legislation to ban fetuses in food because of some article he read.

    Well, when you get the chance, could you post the names of the classes? It might be that classes the prestigious "Lewis and Clark in Oregon" are functionally similar to those UC Berkeley provides. I know that when I took Tulane courses, they had the basic "History up to the Civil War" and "History past the Civil War" (course names paraphrased) courses.
    I am going to post this, and hope that no one NO ONE sees it as an attempt to in any way defend or validate WC. He is so wrong that he has gone past wrong, I don't know what to call it, but it is sub-wrong somehow. That being said Lewis and Clark College is actually an extremely well regarded school and when I graduated high school it was among the top 5 for international business degrees. I received a full ride including room and board to that school because I was so damn smart (then made the dumbest move ever, but in the end we can't dwell too hard on our regrets).

    THAT being said, this college would most likely accept UC's history classes as.....HISTORY CLASSES.

    http://www.history.ucsb.edu/courses/
    You can only for 2 seconds?

    Anyway, yes. This is one of the three I found that has American History classes. Davis and San Diego also have US history classes.

    Actually she mentioned the medical school at 3:51.

    Either you didn't listen that long, or you weren't really paying attetion.

    Sloppy.
    Yes, I did hear that. I was paying attention.

    She gave one example that had US history... Davis... and one that didn't... SF...

    I was asking if there were more after I stopped listening.

    Bingo...

    You found what I was looking for. Too bad I only found three of the 10 schools that have this series of classes.

    Where are the others besides San Diego, Davis, and Santa Barbara?

    Lets see...

    I didn't take this new math you guys took, but isn't 10 minus 3 still equal to 7?

    still doubling down on the bull .

    To qualify for a bachelor’s degree, you must meet the following conditions, which are explained in more detail in the following sections:

    ...
    Satisfy the university requirements in American history and ins utions and in Entry Level Writing (English composition)
    http://reg.ucsc.edu/catalog/html/und...cad.html#gened

    I would point out that smaller colleges might go a semester, or even, it seems, 4 without teaching things that are required to graduate.

    The courses are then offered after this gap, and everybody take them.

    It isn't as if they don't exist, or aren't a requirement.

    Once again, if Santorum didn't mention this in context, he was either ignorant or deliberately deceiving.

    Which do you think it is?

    Indeed. We are, but not in the way you would like to think.

    I try really hard to force myself to have some respect for you. Then you go off and do something like this.

    It would be an interesting exercise to cobble together your stupidity here into one post.

    Then, the next time you start blathering about the your climate scientist conspiracy theory just link that one post.

    No credibility for you.

    Santorum is a bonehead, with some of the things he says, so it's hard to be sure. I think he was probably parroting what someone else had told him, because I seriously doubt that he took the time to research the course catalogs.

    Like I said, I don't know, but maybe the person was referencing the fact that the history courses that are taught all come with some peculiar ideological slant. This is one of the few "plain" American history courses at Berkeley. It could just as easily be called "How the White Man Kept a Brother Down". I'm pretty sure that there were some interesting historical things that happened between settlement and Civil War, but they don't teach them.

    The United States from Settlement to Civil War -- History (HISTORY) 7A
    There are two main themes: one is to understand the origin of the "groups" we call European-Americans, Native-Americans, and African-Americans; the second, is to understand how democratic political ins utions emerged in the United States in this period in the context of an economy that depended on slave labor and violent land acquisition.
