White House senior adviser David Axelrod said the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has the burden of proving false the charge by Democrats that the business group is funneling foreign money to Republican campaigns.
Axelrod was pressed by CBS Bob Schieffer on Sunday for evidence that the foreign campaign contributions benefiting the GOP is more than peanuts.
Do you have any evidence that its not, Bob? Axelrod said on Face the Nation. The fact is that the Chamber has asserted that, but they wont release any information about where their campaign money is coming from. And thats at the core of the problem.

Right...just as soon as the DNC proves the ACORN allegations false.
In the old America, it was the other way around. The commie ‘RATS would have been required to prove that you were receiving the foreign money. I’m never going to get used to this Obama fascist bullsh*t.
“Now, Mr. Chamber, when did you stop beating your wife?”
So the FEC investigates and finds someone guilty. The Won remains in power, and the guy that donated gets a $50k fine.
And thier little gambit with the Chamber blows up in their face before we even get into the remaining $400,000,000 in accounted for funds from 2008.
Hey Axelrod, prove your mother was not a whore.
He should be made to prove he’s not a child molestor.
Axelrod should be challenged to provide that Obama was not born in Kenya. Just a simple valid birth certificate will suffice. Can he do it? No? Why not?
Delusional - And I am loving it.
We will settle up after Nov. 10
Their dishonest talking points seem like a move to help advance the disclose act in lame duck session.
You can't prove a negative. Duh!
The general educated public.

LOL! I was wondering the same thing.
For over two centuries, the legal adage has been 'He who asserts must also prove', yet now, all of a sudden....it's not?
The GOP needs to seriously grow a few pairs and start filing legal cases against the Dems for taking foreign money.
Their silence in the face of blatant lies is what got us in this position in the first place, IMHO.
A 501(c)4 receiving foreign fund is just fine. A Presidential campaign receiving foreign funds is a FEDERAL CRIME.
The Clintons took money from the chicoms and it was proven, so it’s OK. After it became known, the RATS said ‘’we need campaign finance reform’’ up steps McCain to help them with the McCain-Feingold bill.
“Innocent till proven guilty” Axelrod has it backwards!...
Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. The burden of proof rests on the prosecution - not the defense. These usurpers are enemies to our Constitution and this Republic.
Thank you for the pings, FRiend. =]
Thank you Arthur
