Some say rehashing Vietnam has no place in this campaign. But, as this incident shows, liberal Vietnam attitudes never really went away, and now they're back in spades.

And this time, they need to be answered in kind ten times over. If I witness this, I'll be in the fray. Nobody spits on or touches a US soldier in my presence without getting their butt kicked. Period.

Isn't there lots of military presence in the Columbus area? How about someone pays this jerk a visit? I think someone needs an attitude adjustment.

It's disturbing that there'd be an anti-war attendee at a Toby Keith concert. But I suppose there are conservative bleeding hearts too.

Kerry and the left created just this sort of atmosphere during the Vietnam era. Kerry and the Dems are doing it again. It's just beginning, too. It's going to get worse for returning vets. This time, however, because of terrorist attacks, I do not believe the country will be as tolerant. The Swift Boat ads might start linking these current liberal attacks on veterans with Kerry and the Dems because their rhetoric is the motive force legitimizing the verbal and physical assaults. From my personal perspective, it's like Yogi Berra said, " It's deja vu all over again."

On TV the left "supports" the troops, but in reality these vermin despise them and what they stand for. They represent the best in America, and America is what they hate.

- Again, so easy for me to say, but I'da been right in there swinging away, and I don't care if the guy was 6'8" 350.-

I agree, and I'm only 5' 1" and 120! But I can certainly get other like-minds riled up about it, for assistance!

One witness, a friend of the alleged attacker, said Barton hit first.

If they have this friend of the attacker, then they'll be able to identify the attacker, right? He's probably being arrested right this minute, right?

That happened to the soldier because of the climate of hate for soldiers that Kerry engendered by his anti-war actions after the Viet-Nam war and is continuing to do now.

Maybe the attacker was just in the parking lot looking for trouble, not a concert-goer.

Was the attacker tall, skinny and have an UGLY wife with him that smelled like Ketchup?

Yep. This is one of those wish-I-had-been-there moments.

Am I out of line here, or is it fair to say that this attack shows a clear link between Islamic terrorists and American leftists? I'm not saying they're actively coordinating -- only that they seem to want to attack the same targets.

Any comments from T. Keith??

I'd not be surprised to hear him make a blanket challenge from the stage at his next concert: "You want a piece of one of ours? Come see how you like me."

(Note: Toby is a BIG man... and very defensive of our troops.)

The leftists really do support our troops.
