Why did he think he could get away with just making up stories about the Statue? There are enough of us left who know accurate history, and he had to know it would go all over radio and internetz. Let's say I was a radical lefty in power. Could I stand up and say "Today is Thanksgiving. This is the day we celebrate the Roe v. Wade decision" and think I wouldn't be ridiculed? What is wrong with this POS?
Do NOT count on the schools to teach history. They're making it up as they go along, or else they have the Agenda. We are all home-schoolers now, if only on evenings and weekends. Dinnertime would also be a good chance to sneak in an little instruction.
