Today's right wing pernicious lie of the day: The United States Constitution was based on Bible verses, proving the founders intended for the United States to be a Christian nation.

He talks real fast so we don't really have time to slow it down and look at what he's saying for a reason: If we did, everyone would call bullshit on him. He cites, for example, Leviticus 19:34, which, with 19:33, commands the following: "When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong.
