I looked up many of Barton's footnotes and quotes from the Founding generation. Every one was factual. That makes his history admirable.

Here is some BS from your link: He's not interested in knowing much about the history of colonial America or the US in the early republic.

In order to refute Barton you must show he fabricated his sources. You cannot.

Wow...you have exposed yourself now. Incredible. David Barton is one of the few people you shouldn’t try to discredit.

He is an honest, ethical and principled man who has a little secret...

He has many of the original authentic documents from our founders, our presidents and many historical artifacts from other countries, etc...

You can’t break his arguments, his facts cannot be disputed because they are THE FACTS.

Every thing he does is thoroughly foot-noted, end-noted or otherwise cross-referenced for you to fully vet anything he says.

He 100% backs up his positions and he is absolutely spot on. ANY SERIOUS conservative would thoroughly embrace David Barton - he is a pillar of truth and shines the brightest of any conservative voice out there.

Want to learn the truth about our country - get Barton’s DVD series called The American Heritage Series - even a dolt like you will walk away with a very different and positive view of our country.

David Barton is not a historian. And there is no such thing as a “conservative historian”.

I saw a lot of stuff, mostly hostile to Christian perspective, and to Barton personally because he was not an academically trained historian, but in all the things you posted, and that were posted in the blog, I did not see one thing that proved a factual error on Barton’s part.

Provide evidence where Barton has made a historical mistake, including the name, date, place and time where it was said, the exact content of what was said, references substantiating the same, and if an error was made, what you portend was the true factual statement that should have been made.

Your tagline suggests you are interested in the truth. Why are you afraid of the truth about David Barton?

Coming from one who defends the use of the Nazi Swastika, I don't think you are the go-to guy for truth, Bud.

Case in point:

"The swastika has a 6000 year history, why should it be avoided just because Hitler was evil? And why should we run away from a star or a crescent?"

YOU ARE A TROLL!

Have you actually read or viewed any of David Barton’s material?

If so, what did you find that was in error?

What, praytell, have I exposed?

David Barton has a history of making things up to advance his cause.

Google is your friend, try it sometime.

I don’t need Barton to teach me anything because I know what a primary source is. (It is one of those pesky little things that prove Barton to be a hack. LOL!)

Google “David Barton lies” and you will find the documentation you require if you are not afraid of the source.

Do you dispute the 6000 year history of the swastika? Are we beholden to deem a symbol as evil simply because an evil person used it?

That was a good conversation - wish it had gone on.

Have you read anything from him?

Disprove what he says if you are smart enough to use Google should be smart of the read anything from him and disprove it?

Guess what you can’t...

BTW Beck’s people thoroughly vetted and checked out Barton years ago.

It is truly sad when our country is too freaking lazy to do their own homework and research and they rely on Google to guide them through life. No wonder we have Obama.

BTW have you read about the relationship between Google and the NSA?

I agree. I have seen it multiple times. I am amazed at how our true history has been so hidden by the leftist/atheist America-haters in our public school and state college system. I am in total God-praising awe over Mr. Barton's foresight in buying the original documents of our Founding Fathers, and his generous use of the gifts that God has given him to spread the word far and wide for this time in our nation's history!

Here is a link to that series on DVD.

A lot of men more honorable than your sorry ass died to wipe that symbol and all it represents from the face of the earth.

“It is truly sad when our country is too freaking lazy to do their own homework and research and they rely on Google to guide them through life.”

Thank you for summarizing how I feel about people’s enchantment with Barton. Becks people were sloppy then, weren’t they?

I was one of the first to read Barton, and have been trying to warn people since. I don’t need google to know he is wrong, I know he is wrong because I know history.

"Your tagline suggests you are interested in the truth. Why are you afraid of the truth about David Barton?"


I am very familiar with David Barton and his work. We have some mutual friends. I hold your argument to be your opinion and not the truth. I do not agree with your opinion based on my own empirical knowledge.

I disregard your "source" because it is based on atheism and denies the one true God. Proverbs says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, therefore, atheism is folly.

The TRUTH my tagline refers to is the Way the Truth and the Life (John 14:6) -- Feel free to look it up

Have a great day!

And David Barton is the keeper of the greatest of these, as well as the greatest majority of them.

You are a troll.

N, they did not die to get rid of the symbol. They died to save people from evil men and tyranny.
