I recall Cleaver said he declined to press charges.

If he had, I think we would know... and, if he wanted this bad publicity turned around or at least deminish it, he'd come forth.

And, I don't know about you, but even if I do something that harms or embarrasses someone by accident, I still apologize. Maybe you folks (Tea Party conservatives) are different.

I think if it was a blatant spit, the congressman would have been a lot quicker to wipe it off.....

Oh, did you notice the policewoman right beside him? She didn't seem to notice anything.
And you would think that he would have spoke to the police officer if he really felt threatened. I know that's what I would have done.

That has nothing to do with the cops lack of response at the time and after.

Plus if it was that big of a deal why wouldnt he

You do realize he just might not care what you have to say.


Do you know right then and there he didnt say sorry it I spit on you. Where you there? Maybe he didnt realize he did.

What bad publicity do you think hes getting its Rep Cleaver thats getting the bad publicity for making a big deal and acting like it was done on purpose when if it even happened at all it was clear it was an accident.

I'm sure the guy doesn't, but he may care what some of his 'team mates' say and they're pretty quiet... except for making excuses.

If you can't see how this hurts the Tea Party... an apparent example of 'mob' mentality' and lack of civility, I won't be able to change your mind.

Have at it! Keep on showing the outrage with what many see as tantrums.

Why in the world did Cleaver stay standing in front of the protester?
