Old Wine in Old Bottles - (Jane Fonda's non apology book tour)

I heard yesterday on Fox cable, that while Jane Fonda walked down the line viewing POWs, some of them who were lined up, slipped notes to her, which urged her to tell their military officers and the American government, that they were being tortured and desperately needed help.

Jane Fonda handed our guys' desperate notes to her N.Vietnamese hosts, which traitorous act resulted in worse torture for our POWs.

Jane, you ignorant slut!

[Zeppelin]

They failed to mention what the Hanoi press quoted her as saying when she was peering through the anti-aircraft gun...

"Now let's find those blue-eyed sons of bitches"

Despicable

[Rummyfan]

While its certainly believable that Hanoi Jane would do such a thing, I think that tale has been debunked.

[cripplecreek]

The ignorant b**ch is claiming to apologize about her vists to north Vietnam only to increase book sales. In reality she isn't sorry for one thing.

[cripplecreek]

Medved Talking about Fonda now.

[mountainlyons]

Hanoi Jane is one up on Hanoi John Kerry, She did make an "apology"

[Tenacious 1]

I don't know where it could have been debunked. I read a/the book that tells the story from a guy that stood in the line and passed the note (or maybe he was quoted). I am a diehard skeptic of all that is outrageous and found it indisputable. He is quoted. In fact, the same book talks about how torture increased and the notes were read back to the POWs. It alleges that at least one POW died as a result of the increased intensity of the torture. There was also a documentary a few years back on Discovery or History Channel about it.

That's an urban legend.

See: http://www.snopes.com/military/fonda.asp

She did lie but she did not get any notes.

[Tenacious 1]

I need to dig up that book and re-research it. I hate being made a fool of.

I still could not hate the c___ more.

(And now I need to see a priest and confess my sins of hatred.)

I hope this whore shows her ugly face in my area on her book tour. I plan on showing up with my protest sign.

Maybe we need to set up a Freeping list like we did for all the other times when somebody needed to tell it like it is.

[traderrob6]

Last night on Letterman she blamed the right, can you believe it.

[Bring Back Old Sparky]

Jane thinks the Iraq war is wrong. Maybe she could go there and protest. Who knows, she might find a big gun to make a photo-op with. Oh, I forgot... the enemy isn't in charge of Iraq. Them's be our guns now. Nevermind...

[ANGGAPO]

There has to be a way to get Old Jane deported to some spot on earth where she is loved, perhaps North Korea?

[Tacis]

She must be selling something, a book I suppose, because she's been all over TV. Last night, she was on Letterman. It was immediately clear that Dave was giving her the left wing princess treatment that he extends to some guests. It wasn't worth watching or listening to, so I clicked through.

I did get an impression, however. Hanoi Jane is one hard, tough old cookie. She has been badly used and comes across like a very, senior hooker with many years of hard experience. Why any one would want to hear about her lies and treason is completely beyond me. Letterman's kissing of Hillie's butt or Kerry's butt is understandable, they could do him some good in the future, maybe. An old hooker like Jane, why?

[John Lenin]

Whoa, I think you nailed her. (not literally)

[kilowhskey]

The dates and locations of her book tour would be valuable to Freepers all over the country. Any leads greatly appreciated.

[DuncanWaring]

There's no commandment that says "Thou shall not hate."

[DuncanWaring]

"Rode hard and put up wet"?

[DuncanWaring]

I seem to recall an article in Newsweek or Time shortly after her Great North Vietnamese Concert Tour documenting it.

Might even have been the cover story.

Does anyone have anything more specific on if/when such an article appeared?
