Yeah, Andrew Breitbart is offering $10k to anyone with audio-video proof of tea partiers yelling the N word. Somebody called Hannity totday and, because her husband works for the justice dept., was able to get one of the staffers in Lewis’s office to admit no such thing occurred.
I doubt if such a suit would succeed, but sure, they can sue for it. Basically anybody can sue anybody for most anything. Doesn’t mean you’ll win.
True story: somebody sued a car rental agency in southern CA because someone with an Irish surname rented a vehicle from the company, got drunk and ran into the plaintiff. The plaintiff sued the rental company under the theory that, because the patron had an Irish surname, the car rental company should have known he’d get drunk, drive and potentially injure someone. It was dismissed, but still, the car rental company had to mount and pay for a defense.
Sux!
