it's amazing (and depressing)that this mentality has survived to this day.

[Danae]

This should be a BARF alert.

I can not STAND that person. So much for Babs 100 greatest eh? I have to wonder where Imelda Marcos stands.... sheesh

[rlmorel]

Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

The fact that Babwah Wahwah is honoring this POS Jane Fonda just reinforces how I feel about her. My opinion on Hanoi Jane is solid and longstanding, given what she did while our men were being tortured in the Hanoi Hilton.

But everytime I wonder if I am perhaps being too judgemental on Babwah Wahwah...she helps me get over it.

The Democrats are still dreaming about Jane getting into politics. John Kerry was a the surrogate they had to settle for.

Thanks for posting, I will be sending it out.

There is plenty for which one might criticize Jane Fonda-- *Jane Fonda* for pete's sake-- without having to resort to a long discredited chain letter.

Too bad they didn't hang her back when she was committing treason.

A very eloquent and touching story.

And let us not forget the severely wounded and maimed who today have not seen the outside of a hospital.

I had a friend who was in the Marines and when he got out he had trouble "adapting". So he spent a few months in the Oaknoll Naval Hospital psychiatric ward (Oakland, CA.).

This ward was immediately pass the amputee ward and was guarded by SP 24 hours because of the types of mental patients - not all were physically injured, but most were trained to kill, at the drop of pin.

Seeing the wounded and the amputees nearly every day was trying. And these were the young men Jane Fonda disparaged! They were crippled for life while she was a glamorous whore.

Forget. No. And I thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Jane Fonda is being honored as one of the "100 Women of the Century"

I don't know why Fonda is not on the cover of Time like the Dizzy Chicks. But I do know that Fonda has to be pretty steamed that she did not get a pulitzer.

She also has got to be mad that she did not get a Nobel Peace prize like Jimmy Carter and Arafat and Kofi Anan. Oh the horror, the injustice of it all. Life just is not fair.

1 - this "Top 100" list came out about 5 years ago

2 - this Jane Fonda story is bogus and has been debunked many many times

3 - thanks for playing

And we should be surprised by this? I'm not. There are many in our society today that could be put in the same classification of traitor and they are revered in their jobs. Congressmen, news media and the ACLU for starters.

[FairOpinion]

Here is the break down on what is truthful and what is false from this e-mail (according to a site, whose credibility I can't vouch for):

Jane Fonda was honored by Barbara Walters in her special on ABC by being one of the top 100 most influential women of the century on April 30, 1999. True

The passing of slips of papers to Jane Fonda and subsequent beatings that caused the death of three men is False

The story about LTC Jerry Driscoll is False

The story about Col. Larry Carrigan is False.

The story about the civilian (Michael Benge) is True.

I looked elsewhere too and the FACT that she WAS honored as one of the top 100 women of the 20th century IS TRUE.
