Jane Fonda

[larryours]

Just read where Jane Fonda is supposed to be honored as one of the "100 Women of the Century" by Barbra Walters
What's this country comming to, when we honor one of the biggest traitors to the United States and the American G.I. (Viet Nam erra). Maybe some of you are not old enough to remember her and what she did when she visited the P.O.W.'s in Viet Nam, but I do, and from that day forth, I would not watch a movie she was in. Because she was and will remain " Hanoi Jane ".

[Rocky Raab]

To Barbara Walters and the rest of the far left media and entertainment industry, Hanoi Jane is a hero. They idolize her BECAUSE she is a traitor, not despite it.

I guess the 100 women of the century thing was real. Some of the other sturff about "Hanoi Jane" was kind of mixed versions of relality and fantasy.

I pulle dthe following of the Snopes website regarding Henry's daughter. I expecially like the last paragraph, which appears to be true?

Per Snopes.com:

Fonda again "apologized" in 2005, an act which not suprisingly once again coincided with the release of a film in which she had a starring role (Monster-in-Law, her first leading role since 1990's Stanley & Iris) and a book tour to promote her autobiography. As she had several years earlier, Fonda made it quite clear that she was apologizing only for posing for photographs while seated at a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun, and even then her "apology" was couched in the most oblique terms possible (i.e., she didn't address the people she harmed and say she was sorry for hurting them; she only issued the self-confessional statement that she "regretted" one of her actions):
2000: "I will go to my grave regretting the photograph of me in an anti-aircraft carrier, which looks like I was trying to shoot at American planes. It hurt so many soldiers. It galvanized such hostility. It was the most horrible thing I could possibly have done. It was just thoughtless."

2005: "I will go to my grave regretting that. The image of Jane Fonda, 'Barbarella,' Henry Fonda's daughter, just a woman sitting on an enemy aircraft gun was a betrayal. It was like I was thumbing my nose at the military and at the country that gave me privilege."
Fonda emphasized she was that not apologizing for any other actions connected with her trip to North Vietnam, or for any of her other anti-war activities:
The 67-year-old actress and activist, however, defended her decision to go to Hanoi and said she had no regrets about being photographed with American POWs there or making broadcasts on Radio Hanoi because she was trying to stop the war.

"There are hundreds of American delegations that had met with the POWs," she added. "Both sides were using the POWs for propaganda. It's not something that I will apologize for."
One man who didn't take Fonda's confessions to heart was 54-year-old Michael Smith. While Fonda was autographing copies of her autobiography, My Life So Far, in Kansas City in April 2005 as part of a promotional book-signing tour, Smith, who said he was a Vietnam veteran, waited in line for 90 minutes and then spat tobacco juice on Fonda.

Babwa Wawa?

Is that wrong?

Seriously, you the viewer/consumer have the power (albeit limited) to determine whether or not the opinions expressed in or by mass media matter.All you have to do is turn the TV off. Admittedly, the thought of TV/magazines losing their audience is hard to fathom in a sedentary society.However, Hollywood is starting to crack as evidenced by low box office turnout (almost lower than the polls.

She's not my favorite person,,

You got it, drummer. I'm only one, and my actions will never be noticed by the leftists. But I refuse to watch network television, or CNN. I do not buy music and I do not go to movies or rent videos/DVDs. I absolutely positively refuse to read or watch anything "celebrity" at all.

As far as I'm concerned, the bastards do not exist.

As I said, one guy ignoring them won't register. One million will begin to. One hundred million ignoring them will destroy them. Coincidence: there are 100 million gun owners in the US.

And all you have to do is...nothing.

vietnam veterans are not fonda jane. i've aired my feelings about this subject before. and you all know how i feel so theres no sense beating a dead horse.

all i can say is aaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PJgunner]

I'm afraid I cannot post how I feel about "Hanoi Jane." Rocky has stated "Almost" as part of anything goes. Anyway, although I can cuss witht he best of them, I don't know enough cuss words in my vocabulary that would convey my feelings about Jane.
Perhaps this simple statement will cover it. GET A ROPE!

+1,000,000 And I'll through in an anvil to help weight her down!

The Leftist media will continue to not only support these types of TRAITORS, but promote and shower them with love and admaration.

I wasn't in Vietnam, I was just a youngster when it was going on, but I've known a good many vets of that, and other wars. I know (somewhat, as a civilian) what these fine men and women have gone through to protect Our great nation. We exist, in great part, due to their sacrifices. To have SCUM like Ms. Fonda "held up" like a hero, or anything else short of being on trial for treason, fills my normally calm spirit with a deep rage.

God Bless Our vets! and THANK YOU!

I have not seen another Jane Fonda film since her visit to the Commies; nor have I watched her on TV.

[M.T. Pockets]

It must have drove her dad nuts. I think Henry was a WW II veteran, along with most of the rest of Hollywood's stars of the day.

I can't believe so many people still allow her to jerk their chains.
Why do you give that washed up 'ol bag such power over you?
Geeezzzz, go buy a new gun or something.
