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?

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

"She has been badly used and comes across like a very, senior hooker with many years of hard experience."


A recent article in SLATE opines that she wrote her new book to lash out at all the men who used her. In her view, she shaped her image around them (i.e. Barbarella, left-wing activist, etc.).

Typical feminist rant. Blame the men on everything & accept no responsibility. (I'm a woman, so don't call me a male chauvinist.)

She doesn't get it. It wasn't a man who made her consort with the enemy while our soldiers were fighting. While she had a right to oppose the war, she grossly -- and on her own initiative -- overstepped bounds by going to N. Vietnam & consorting with the enemy. (And she makes no apology for that, only for posing in a picture.)
