This is what it has come to. In this “news” column from the AP on the Tea Party rally in Harry Reid’s hometown of Searchlight, Nev., yesterday, the AP puts the burden of proof on Andrew Breitbart to prove that no one yelled the N-word at the Congressional Black Caucus in Washington last Sunday:

old tactic that is NOT going to work

[Obadiah]

Prove to me you’re not beating your wife!

[pyx]

LOL ! Prove a negative.

[mad_as_he$$]

Mad to AP: Prove they are.

[SonOfDarkSkies]

Can't prove a negative...

Breitbart to AP: "Prove they are!"

[WayneS]

Question for AP: “Have you stopped beating your wife”?

[Sgt_Schultze]

Hmmm. Well I remember hearing zerObama at a campaign rally call a heckler a white mothereffin' cracker. No cameras picked up the smear, but he said it just the same.

Prove he didn't.

[OrioleFan]

Guilty until proven innocent? Maybe in the AP’s alternative universe.

AP, prove a leftard didn’t yell the N word.

[ryan71]

AP, prove to US you’re not communists.

[GoforBroke]

A good public relations strategy would be to take many pictures of the variety of people that attend. Possibly holding hands or arm in arm.

[crosshairs]

Prove the Black Congressional Caucus isn’t racist. Thats right, you can’t.

[sport]

I would tell the ap [lower case on purpose] to prove that they are.

This is why the press won’t cover the Tea Parties the way that journalists should. If they show the crowds people will see the size and that they are peaceful. Obama’s media is in full court press mode. Demomize, discredit and spread hate. People need to flood the media with requests to prove with facts their stories. The media could be at all of these events and provide the truth.

This isn’t America anymore.

AP, prove you’re not liberal suck ups!

You have no evidence of Tea Party racism, because if you did, you’d show it.

Show the video of John Lewis and company walking up to the House chambers last week, and then identify the point Lewis claims to have heard a slur......You can’t do it because they never flinch and there is no such audio.

[listenhillary]

Breitbart to AP. Have you stopped having relations with animals?

[steelyourfaith]

Not surprised that the AP is dealing in logical fallacy.

Still, why haven't liberal plants in the crowds been doing things to discredit the Tea Party movement?

I have been to several local Tea Party events and two in DC (7/4/10 & 9/12/10) and have seen nothing even approaching disrespectful behavior.

I believe it would be appropriate for Tea Party folks to be armed with recording devices if some clown gets out of hand and then confront him and ask for name/identity to possibly expose a plant.

We are now solidly living in an era of blatant corruption and duplicity.
