Former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu apologized earlier this week for suggesting that President Barack Obama needs to “learn to be an American,” saying he misspoke.  Rick Santorum doesn’t seem to think he should have.  

The former Pennsylvania senator and presidential apriant took to Twitter on Thursday morning to take aim at Obama for his now widely quoted (and misrepresented) “you didn’t build that” line.  

“Maybe John Sununu shouldn’t have apologized,” tweeted Santorum. “As always, Charles Murray strikes a chord.”  

Santorum provided a link to the conservative Murray’s column, titled “Un-American,” on Obama’s remarks, which were made during a Friday speech in Virginia.
