  • If a journalist is going to quote David Barton claiming that "you’ll find direct quotations from the Bible throughout the Constitution," they ought to have an obligation to at least point out that it isn't true.

  • On a related note, Rick Green makes the case against marriage equality in a way that makes Barton seem like a genius.

  • Concerned Women for America is not happy about the news that journalists Jenna Wolfe and Stephanie Gosk are having a baby.

  • Glenn Beck is a crazy person, but that doesn't stop people like Sen. Ted Cruz from appearing on his radio program.

  • Apparently, Rep. Louie Gohmert does not take kindly to receiving a parking ticket.

  • Finally, did you know that "President Barack Obama is now the global head of Al-Qaeda"?

David Barton

Despite having obtained only a Bachelor of Arts degree from Oral Roberts University in the 1970s, David Barton now routinely bills himself as “America’s premier historian” and has established a reputation as the Religious Right’s go-to “expert” for making the case that the Founding Fathers intended to establish America to be a Christian nation that operates according to the laws of God as set out in the Bible.
