on congresspersons? Their supporters are saying that there is no evidence.

9. what I saw
showed the teabagger with his hands cupped around his mouth like he was hollering and it showed the gentleman walking by flinching like something had hit him and he immediately was wiping his face with his hands...personally i think he was too far away to be sprayed with spittle from teabaggers hollering, I think he was intentionally spit on.

3. There are an awful lot of things that happen every minute of every day
in this world for which there is no "evidence", if the existence of photos or videos are your sole criteria.............

4. Since they lie about everything, the denial confirms it.
That was easy.

Haven't seen any video though. If there is a video, it's likely taken by a teabagger who's not likely reveal it.

I'll take the congress member's word over that of the teabaggers.

6. if they
cussed and threw money at a disabled man supporting health care for all then I'm pretty sure they will spit on a black man. If you want to see that video it's around.

8. If someone finds it watch for Congressman Lewis and some others walking up the
Edited on Tue Apr-06-10 02:14 PM by peacetalksforall
steps. There is a man on their right in a black shirt with black pants and baseball cap - older. Congressman Cleaver was the last in a short group of men. Cleaver reacts and looks at him, then continues as he wipes his face. A security person of some kind - a female in a uniform did nothing. Cleaver then comes back with a different security person to (I think) find the man, but doesn't recognize him. He looks around. The first time I looked at it I thought the man had disappeard also, but on watching it again, I see that the man Cleaver looked at, as a first reaction to the spit, hadn't moved. The spitter has his hands to each side of his mouth.

If yelling the n word at Lewis took place here I wouldn't be surprised. Lewis looked very serious.

Everyone was yelling Kill the Bill - the person yelling the n word (maybe the spitter) would have had to be wearing a microphone to hear his voice. There was a lot of noise. Good cover.

When some announcer near-by mentions that Congresswoman Bachmann is arriving - a cheer goes up.

I'm taking the time to write this, but I don't have the time to find the video - I believe it happened on the Saturday before the vote, but I never saw the video until about four days after.

Spitting seems to be in with these baggers. Someone spit on a petition form on a clipboard held by an (independent?) petition taker who told his story to Thom Hartman. There is video of Hartman taking the call, but no video of the spitting as far as I know. You can see Hartman and hear the petitioner at the Thom Hartman web site, I assume. (Hartman? Hartmann?)

10. I hope that spitter is identified. Cleaver is a good man.

14. Here's one clip show this piece of trash, white hat, black t-shirt, spitting
at Emanual Cleaver, who's wearing a brown jacket, tie, darker brown slacks, standing on the steps of the Capitol Building with his hands around his mouth screeching, and clearly he spits on Rep. Cleaver as he passes, causing him to start, turn around, brush away the slime from the right side of his face, comment to the scumball, proceed up the stairs as the bastard snickers with his two fellow scums, then Rep. Cleaveer returns with a Capitol policeman to the same spot, and walks off after saying something to the cop regarding the man, apparently.

Very ugly seeing ANY alleged human being behaving that way.

Congressman Spit On By Tea Party Protester
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ3bNhSYG6Q&NR=1

Just because any teabagging jackasses claims the actual blob of your reeking drool can't be seen on a small computer screen, you clearly see in the behavior of BOTH parties what has happened, and believe me, for the idiots who want to insist you can't spot the mass of stinking crap flying from the puckered, dirty mouth you can tell how much Cleaver liked it, and what he thought about this typical low, cowardly, filthy act.

That video can be enlarged, you know, and it probably WILL, for the gibbering idiots who want to keep yammering that it didn't happen if you don't see the wad of classless freeper drool crap on its way to infect Rep. Cleaver.
