I can only assume you are not brain damaged or otherwise deranged, though not of course by your posting. I was an airman, (2Lt.) most likely long before you were born. I was a liberal democrat then, in the service of my country. I am still to this day a liberal democrat, and I would serve my country again if I was still physically able. Unless you yourself have served, as I did, you are simply not by any means qualified to articulate an opinion about politics or the war. Many of us WHO SERVED were in fact, against the Vietnam war. We served with honor despite our personal misgivings. The difference between us "liberals" and the conservatives you champion, is we learned the lessons of the Vietnam war, because we served there. Our current administration, to a MAN, did NOT. Perhaps had they done so, we would not be so completely fouled up in the Middle East. My suggestion to you, is read a little history before you open your decidedly big, and uninformed MOUTH. I have heard very little in the media about anyone spitting on a returning soldier or airman. To this day, I would (as I did then) limit the spitting ability of anyone who found it necessary to voice their political views with saliva. I assure you, they would only do it once!

Did you just step out of a time machine? There have been no reports of anyone spitting on returning soldiers and calling them baby killers since the Vietnam War. Hell, I participated in many anti-war demonstrations back during Vietnam and even the vast majority of we college liberals thought that was over the top and just wrong. It was a distinct minority that did those ignorant things. This is 2007, not 1969 and no one is committing these acts today, try and get a grip. Hippie war protesters are in their 50's and 60's now lol. Did you just wake up from a 40 year coma or something?

I examine an essay on the spitting phenomena. that is been happening because the Civil warfare. as a rule a city legend yet some cases of staged spitting for archives has handed off. the most efficient area is how non military electorate yearn for the incident as a fashion of figuring out with squaddies. A Lexus Nexus survey of who became allegedly spat on over the perfect 100 years shows that's continuously the human beings no longer in fantastic condition for service that claimed to be the sufferer. like the pink Badge of braveness slightly spit on your blouse sleeve shall we the feeble connect the ranks of the squaddies. go large pink go

I love it when people use the word "hippies" . That sh*t cracks me up and shows that the persons's political views are still stuck in the 60's. I am not a baby killer and would never spit on anyone or burn a flag. As a matter of fact, I have a little flag on the back of my motorcycle that I rode to work today. You can spit on anyone you want to, but they might get pissed. I will admit however, that I occasionally buy a bag of weed off of my Republican dealer. Then we get high and talk about how much both of our parties suck.

I'm sorry for you that you are so full of hatred for your fellow man and Americans that you feel the need to post questions like this that only show how very bigoted you are.
This is why America is in trouble. Not because of Liberals vs. Republicans, this kind of hate and anger right here.
How do you think you are contributing to ANY soloution by doing this? How do you think you are helping America by posting this on Yahoo! Answers?
How is this going to help Liberals see where the Conservatives are comming from?
How is this going to help you get your point of view across?
Or is this simply destructive?

If I come home and someone spits on me I am going to kick their a$$, forget honor, forget professionalism, ill show them what a baby killer can do to a grown man, and why the US has the most elite fighting force on God's green Earth.

As bad as I hate those types you do have to admit that they are the fringe element and not indicative of all Liberals. I'm not defending the rest of the crowd, I just hate over generalizations like this.

Only as many as you can survive spitting on.
American soldiers are some of the most well disciplined and well trained men and women in the world.
I would like to see those such as Feinstein and Pelosi stepping into their boots.
