Pat Robertson Revives Lie That Obama Is A Muslim...Continues To Sound Like An Idiot!!
On The 700 Club today, Pat Robertson floated the debunked conspiracy theory that President Obama went to a madrassa in Indonesia when he was a child and said that the president has a Muslim “inclination.” Earlier this year, the televangelist’s son and heir apparent Gordon Robertson also made the false claim that Obama used to be a Muslim. Discussing Obama’s recent trip to Indonesia to take part in the ASEAN conference, the elder Robertson said that Obama’s mother, who raised him, “just sort of flitted around,” leaving him to be influenced by his “Kenyan socialist” father. This upbringing, Robertson claims, gave the president “a warped perspective of what needs to be done to make America the greatest nation on earth.”

Faux Historian David Barton Claims That Our Government Came From The Bible!!!
I know that we have already done this several times before, but as long as David Barton keeps making baseless assertions that key elements of our system of government were taking directly out of the Bible, we are going to keep posting it. And this is exactly what he did, yet again, during his presentation at the "One Nation Under God" conference. Does he not realize that Deists (people who didn't believe in Jesus Christ or in him being the Messiah) founded the country, and that the First Amendment was to prevent what has happened today with Christianity overpowering the country? Probably not!
