Right Wing Watch Critiques David Barton's Appearance on The Daily Show

David Barton, the leading purveyor of the Christian Nation myth, appeared on the Daily Show last Wednesday.  Barton has become more famous lately, partly due to adulation frm GOP presidential candidates Huckabee, Gingrich, and Bachmann.  Here Right Wing Watch specifically addresses Barton's appearance on the Daily Show, pointing to places where once again Barton lies or distorts.  Also Chris Rodda, who has put blood, sweat, and tears into refuting the Christian Nation myth, is now offering her book as a free download.  Why does any of this matter?  Because it speaks to the freedom we have in this country to worship or not worship according to each person's conscience, a freedom I cherish very much.
