NOT THE CARTER ERA, A RETURN TO THE LBJ ERA? Occupy Boston protesters spit on Coast Guard member. “The Coast Guard in Boston confirmed that a woman in uniform was harassed and spat upon by Occupy Boston protesters. The woman was walking to the train and said protesters spit on her twice, called her foul names and even threw a water bottle at her.”

UPDATE: Reader John Steakley writes: “No one spits on a service member on their own. Others contribute to make it possible. Without those contributions there would not have been a street to walk down, a service member to spit on, or a uniform to defile. So yes, by her logic Elizabeth Warren not only supports the act, she contributed to it. “
