The Tea Party pseudohistorian, David Barton, sues three who reveal him giving speeches to racists

[ck4829]

David Barton of Aledo-based WallBuilders has filed a libel and defamation law suit against an Internet writer and two former Texas State Board of Education candidates.

Barton is alleging public policy opponents have falsely painted him as a white supremacist sympathizer and liar.

The suit unspecified damages from the three defendants for allegedly exposing Barton and WallBuilders to “public hatred, contempt, ridicule, financial injury and impeaching (Barton’s) honesty, integrity and virtue.”

The suit alleges Barton has been subjected to a loss of business because of the false statements.
