LOL. There's good old birther tactic #2 again, shifting of the burden of proof.

Rogers made an unsubstantiated claim. It IS HIS BURDEN to prove it, not mine to assume it is true and try to prove it for him. You faithers are terrible at debate. I didn't ask anyone to prove a negative. Rogers says "no legal authority agrees with my interpretation." What part of asking him to prove this claim involves proving a negative??

If he's wrong, you should be able to cite at least one legal authority that agrees with you. You can't. That means he wins by default.

The fact that you are asking him to prove a statement that contains the phrase "no legal authority."
