Last weekend, as the House of Representatives gathered to debate health care reform while Tea Partiers protested outside the Capitol, word emerged that Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) had been spit on by one of the demonstrators.
Cleaver
released a statement confirming the incident, but some questioned his claims. Fox News personality Sean Hannity
asked if there was any evidence proving that it had actually happened, and Tea Party groups
offered a cash reward for proof.
Now video has emerged. Take a look and judge for yourself:
