You'd think if this was such a prevalent thing, someone would have captured it on camera, you know, like how they captured tea baggers spitting on Congressman Lewis after healthcare reform was passed. But it has made it into a few movies, like Born on the 4th of July with Tom Cruise, as I recall. In my experience, spitting on people seems to be more of a right wing thing. Repukes like to accuse liberals of the crap they do themselves. It's a constant exercise in projection, like their claims of voter/election fraud.
The other, related, meme is this incessant harping about what Jane Fonda did, going to Vietnam during the war. My in-laws are always bring that up as proof that liberals are traitors.
