If I thought burning fossil fuels would kill that Fossil Hanoi Jane, I would be lighting a bonfire out back right now!

[OldSmaj]

I piss on Jane Fonda.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Global Warming....Toronto?

Have they gotten above freezing yet?

[TangibleDisgust]

i blame entropy for the mess we’re in... it’s been a gradual decline into disorder ever since Teddy Roosevelt. O.o

The veteran showed up at the cemetery, and asked a caretaker where Jane Fonda was buried.

“You can’t miss it”, the caretaker replied, “just look for the scaffolding with a porta-potty on top, over a huge pile of feces!”

May grass never be able to grow over her grave.

If you catch my drift.....

“They should set up a pipeline to make it efficient /joke/joke/joke”

If HItlary goes ( oh be still my heart) they’re going to have to connect her up via a canal from Boulder Dam! To hell with the draught, there’s serious work to be done here!

[Secret Agent Man]

Is she trying to get back together with Ted Turner’s bank account?

[Catmom]

I used to chalk up Jane’s rantings to being a moonbat.

Now I blame it on senility.

[hinckley buzzard]

Hey Jane, go for the burn, you senile old hag.

[ETL]

I remember reading sometime back that she had become a born-again Christian.

As recently as 2009 she was still sticking it to the US military with this reenactment of the pro-Viet Cong road show she and others did during the war. "FTA" stands for "F" the Army...

Rare Screening of Restored Archival Print of
Classic Vietnam War-Era Documentary

FTA
With Former FTA Cast Member
Jane Fonda in Person

Monday, February 2 at 7:00pm and 9:15pm
7:00pm show sold out!

IFC Center
323 Sixth Avenue
New York, NY, US 10014

FTA (1972, Francine Parker), the Vietnam War-era documentary, will have an ultra-rare screening in a restored archival print with former FTA cast member Jane Fonda in person, Monday, February 2 at 7:00pm and 9:15pm; the 7:00pm show is sold out. Following the screening, Ms. Fonda will talk about the film and her work in the controversial antiwar touring show in a discussion moderated by David Zeiger, director of the recent documentary Sir! No Sir! A portion of the proceeds from the evening will benefit Iraq Veterans against the War, a nonprofit organization that advocates for ending the war and for providing support to returning service members.

Virtually unseen in any format since a brief theatrical run in 1972, FTA documents “the show the Pentagon couldn’t stop.” The revue, whose letters were said to stand both for Free Theater Associates and also Free (or, at times, another F-word) The Army, brought antiwar entertainment to military personnel at the height of Vietnam. Performers like Ms. Fonda, Donald Sutherland and Holly Near toured towns near military bases around the US and overseas, lending their support to troops who opposed the war. The film follows the troupe as it travels and performs near US military bases on the Pacific Rim — Hawaii, Okinawa, the Philippines — encouraging opposition to the war among the rank-and-file of US forces.

FTA is a gritty mix of rollicking performances and GI interviews, juxtaposing lighthearted political satire with the somber realities of war, occupation, and the absurdities of military life, a barbed rebuke to the staid USO program. From Okinawa to the Philippines, stirred by the show’s provocative message, the members of the U.S. military find courage to speak out candidly in front of the camera.

Fonda and Sutherland are joined on stage by an all-star cast of musicians and activists including folk musician Len Chandler and comedian Paul Mooney. A fresh look at the Vietnam anti-war movement through the songs and skits that shook a generation, this film will leave you singing along with the fired-up men and women of the military. Foxtrot, Tango, Alpha... F*** the Army!

Tickets: $12 IFC Center members, $15 general admission.

February 16, 1971: Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland form "FTA" (F*** The Army), an anti-war, anti-American road show that tours near Army bases in order to undermine troop morale. Skits and songs portray American defeats, soldiers refusing to fight, and the murder of officers by their troops. FTA cast members mingle with soldiers after the shows, encouraging them to desert or to sabotage the Army.

Now if Jane had protested to the North Vietnamese firing all of those SAM’s at our boys because of their huge carbon emissions, I might give her the benefit of the doubt regarding “climate change.”
