re: #171 Charles

Toward the end of Reagan’s second term, Skousen became the center of a minor controversy when state legislators in California approved the official use of another of his books, the 1982 history text “The Making of America.”

WTF? There are only two possibilities here. One, that these legislators were unaware of what was in that book, which would make them (like our congress with respect to the house bill) incompetent. Two, that these legislators were aware of what was in that book, which would make them complicit in out and out racism.

Neither possibility is defensible.
