as part of an education bill signed into law by Gov. Jeb Bush, Florida has declared that “American history shall be viewed as factual, not as constructed.”

This is quite incredible. Thanks to James.
UPDATE: I had been more than a little surprised by the story above. But it seems to be be quite legitimate.
