Romney wins Michigan

and is probably finally sighing with relief. But this isn't about him, but rather, Rick Santorum.

Dear Rick,

You're in bad need of a history lesson - many of them, in fact. You also need someone who is an expert on the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. For instance, in tonight's speech (concession speech, although you'd never know it), and granted, without a prompter, you said:

"...and the men and women who signed the Declaration of Independence...."

Er...hello? With or without a prompter, this is not mistake material. This is as ingrained as saying the Pledge of Allegiance.  

No women signed the Declaration of Independence.

OTOH, since you have difficulty understanding the concept of separation of Church and State, I'm not surprised you messed up regarding the signers. Rick, even off the cuff, a fifth grader wouldn't have made that mistake.

Oh, wait, since you think President Obama is a snob because he believes kids should go to college (not that the President actually said that, per se - you kind of messed up there too because you don't know how to listen, or maybe because this is politics and even 'good Christians' lie like rugs while campaigning?), so I'm assuming that having an education and knowing small details, like the fact that no women signed our Declaration of Independence, would make you a snob.

MSNBC is praising your speech in spite of all the errors and lies misconceptions because they think you have "...heart..." and you don't need a teleprompter, but you'll receive no praise from me for any of the above. You may live by your convictions, but unfortunately, you also want me and everyone else to as well. So heartfelt speech or not, I don't want a theocrat as President. I don't want your beliefs foisted onto me and I sure as heck don't want your lack of education in the Oval Office.

Guess I'm a snob too.

Oh, and Rick, we do NOT live in a THEO-cracy - we live in a DEMO-cracy - and for good reason. It's why our Constitution and its Bill of Rights is so adamant regarding the separation of Church and State and why that's the first item mentioned in the First Amendment - it was that important to them. In fact, let me give you the exact words - and don't worry, we'll protect your status as 'uneducated' and 'un-snobbish':

"Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

I urge you, Rick, to read the full Constitution and Bill of Rights - you'll find it right here at the website for the U.S. Senate. In fact, I urge everyone to take some time and read it - all of it. And Rick? Why don't you double-check the signers of the Declaration of Independence while you're at it, okay? And as long as you're doing that - go ahead and read it as well. Be a snob for a few minutes - I won't tell.
