It should be noted that David Barton has the dubious honor of being listed as one of the "30 to Watch" in the Southern Poverty Law Center's summer 2012 issue # 146. (www.intelligencereport.org) Future articles on the extreme right's becoming more mainstream in local, state and federal government would do much to inform the reading public. The use of Christianity and patriotism by these extreme and radical groups is a fraudulent lie being passed as truth. The light of truth and justice will shine on these dark places.

Is a YouTube posting any more libelous than what is passed to the viewing and listening public by such as Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh? (See: Linda Campbell's Thursday column, "When is a YouTube political ad libelous?")
