If I happen to see some idiot spit on one of our soldiers now ... the Vietnam Vet will do some on the spot dental work ... and be proud to go to jail for it.

Is this the guy who was on Foxnews yesterday, said he had been spit on? I believe it, nothing about those liberal whackos surprise me.
For many of them it's party before country.

Yes I will. Whatever it is. It is blocked by my corporate web rules.

But I will believe it.

Yes, there's video of Joshua's appearance on Fox and Friends at the website. Can't post it here for some reason.

For those that can't access the site due to corporate restrictions, this is what happened (minus the video) when the peace protesters encountered our hero:

They laughed at and made fun of Joshua’s missing leg.

The called Joshua a babykiller.

They screamed that Joshua had blood on his hands, and they don’t know how he sleeps at night.

They spat at Joshua.

They flipped him off.

They said he should’ve stayed in Iraq - because he was just a murderer.

Joshua further said that many people were just screaming and trying to jump over the fence to bull rush him and the veterans he was with. Police had to stop the protesters from getting near the veterans. Several said they’d wait around until after the rally to “meet up” with the Joshua.

"Alleged" peace protest--true.
Just more excuses for America/troop haters to get together for a good time!! >:-(

Josh Sparling is a true American hero, as are his fellow soldiers fighting for our freedoms here that we so take for granted. God bless him! It was good to see him looking so healthy, but I'm sorry he's having financial problems-is there a trust fund set up for him somewhere? I don't have much but I'd love to donate a bit for him.

And I truly loved the ending, it brought a tear to my eye because I wasn't expecting it! :*)

I'd be interested in some sort of donation to this fine young man's financial situation.

Here's the enclosed YouTube link. Maybe this will work in the meantime:

jdm, thanks so much for posting that link. That really made my day.

Men like him are the antidote to the men Rush Limbaugh refers to as "The New Castrati".

I'd love to know if there's anyway to get funds to Joshua, as well. I have the address for him when he was still at Walter Reed, but I don't know if he's there still.

I believe in the Fox interview, his father said he will be there for another year or so, which is why he needs financial support--

For those who aren't familiar with Josh's story, here's what Michelle Malkin wrote about him in 2005.
