Hanoi Jane Drops Barack Bomb [video - says she's voting for Obama]
TMZ ^ | April 2, 2008

Posted on 04/03/2008 10:03:55 AM PDT by John Jorsett

Obama may have just hit Barack bottom. Jane Fonda has thrown her spandex behind the Senator from Illinois, and the Senator from New York couldn't be happier.

Anyone who would vote against Hanoi Jane's choice isn't going to pick Hillary either - well, maybe to promote Operation Chaos, but not as a serious selection.

No big deal.

I’m sure Obama already has the backing of Ahmadinejad and Farrahkan and Bin Laden. Putin will be calling in with his support some time soon, I’m sure Fidel, before he dies, and Chavez will be phoning in their endorsements some time soon via the NY Times.

If this traitor had an ounce of integrity she’d be supporting McCain if for no other reason than her actions resulted in further torture of him and his fellow POWs.

She joined the haughty French Senator from Massachusetts who was also against the war and sided with the Communists. They both must know something about Obama that the MSM is not disclosing.

This may be Obama’s worst nightmare. Let’s see how he handles this. Will he disavow her? I don’t think so. She’s a far left icon.

Barack Bomb

Better flow, rhyme, and smoother alliteration could have been achieved with the phrase, Obama Bomb

wasn't Barak endorsed by Ayers and Dohrn and one of the Black Panthers as well as Jane Fonda, Teresa Heinz Kerry (John F’n Kerry?).

Wouldn't it be great if we could find nine former terrorists and traitors so we can headline:

“Nine out of ten Terrorists and Traitors support Barak!!!”

To add insult to injury, when American POWs finally began to return home (some of them having been held captive for up to nine years) and describe the tortures they had endured at the hands of the North Vietnamese, Jane Fonda quickly told the country that they should "not hail the POWs as heroes, because they are hypocrites and liars." Fonda said the idea that the POWs she had met in Vietnam had been tortured was "laughable," claiming: "These were not men who had been tortured. These were not men who had been starved. These were not men who had been brainwashed." The POWs who said they had been tortured were "exaggerating, probably for their own self-interest," she asserted. She told audiences that "Never in the history of the United States have POWs come home looking like football players. These football players are no more heroes than Custer was. They're military careerists and professional killers" who are "trying to make themselves look self-righteous, but they are war criminals according to law"

Most definitely; the same day he disavows Rev. Jeremiah Wright; the same day when pigs fly.

Ok, 0k it means the same thing to me. I will repudiate and disavow and expunge and delete, and reject and embrace....

Did I say embrace? I meant I will embrace the teachings of those who oppose the lengthy calm of my deep and even voice.

wink wink smile smile....

Everything’s good. You know you want me.

Transcript of Jane Fonda's radio address broadcast in North Vietnam August 22, 1972.

Submitted in the U.S. Congress House Committee on Internal Security, Travel to Hostile Areas. [HR16742, 19-25 September 1972, page 761]

[Broadcast]

"This is Jane Fonda. During my two week visit in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, I've had the opportunity to visit a great many places and speak to a large number of people from all walks of life- workers, peasants, students, artists and dancers, historians, journalists, film actresses, soldiers, militia girls, members of the women's union, writers.

I visited the (Dam Xuac) agricultural coop, where the silk worms are also raised and thread is made. I visited a textile factory, a kindergarten in Hanoi. The beautiful Temple of Literature was where I saw traditional dances and heard songs of resistance. I also saw unforgettable ballet about the guerrillas training bees in the south to attack enemy soldiers. The bees were danced by women, and they did their job well.

In the shadow of the Temple of Literature I saw Vietnamese actors and actresses perform the second act of Arthur Miller's play All My Sons, and this was very moving to me- the fact that artists here are translating and performing American plays while US imperialists are bombing their country.

I cherish the memory of the blushing militia girls on the roof of their factory, encouraging one of their sisters as she sang a song praising the blue sky of Vietnam- these women, who are so gentle and poetic, whose voices are so beautiful, but who, when American planes are bombing their city, become such good fighters.

I cherish the way a farmer evacuated from Hanoi, without hesitation, offered me, an American, their best individual bomb shelter while US bombs fell near by. The daughter and I, in fact, shared the shelter wrapped in each others arms, cheek against cheek. It was on the road back from Nam Dinh, where I had witnessed the systematic destruction of civilian targets- schools, hospitals, pagodas, the factories, houses, and the dike system.

As I left the United States two weeks ago, Nixon was again telling the American people that he was winding down the war, but in the rubble- strewn streets of Nam Dinh, his words echoed with sinister (words indistinct) of a true killer. And like the young Vietnamese woman I held in my arms clinging to me tightly- and I pressed my cheek against hers- I thought, this is a war against Vietnam perhaps, but the tragedy is America's.

One thing that I have learned beyond a shadow of a doubt since I've been in this country is that Nixon will never be able to break the spirit of these people; he'll never be able to turn Vietnam, north and south, into a neo- colony of the United States by bombing, by invading, by attacking in any way. One has only to go into the countryside and listen to the peasants describe the lives they led before the revolution to understand why every bomb that is dropped only strengthens their determination to resist. I've spoken to many peasants who talked about the days when their parents had to sell themselves to landlords as virtually slaves, when there were very few schools and much illiteracy, inadequate medical care, when they were not masters of their own lives.

But now, despite the bombs, despite the crimes being created- being committed against them by Richard Nixon, these people own their own land, build their own schools- the children learning, literacy- illiteracy is being wiped out, there is no more prostitution as there was during the time when this was a French colony. In other words, the people have taken power into their own hands, and they are controlling their own lives.

And after 4,000 years of struggling against nature and foreign invaders- and the last 25 years, prior to the revolution, of struggling against French colonialism- I don't think that the people of Vietnam are about to compromise in any way, shape or form about the freedom and independence of their country, and I think Richard Nixon would do well to read Vietnamese history, particularly their poetry, and particularly the poetry written by Ho Chi Minh."

Hanoi Jane’s endorsement? Just another nail in the coffin of the most extreme liberal to ever run for the Office of the President of the United States.

OK, so now the New Black Panther Party endorses him; “Calypso Louie” endorses him; and now that great American, Jane Fonda, endorses him. Now that’s quite a trifecta.

God save us from Mr. Obama.

Thanks, I had not seen or read this before. What a wonderful country we have that allows traitors to live without fear and prosper. In more than 2/3 of the countries around the world she would have died in prison.

Looks like Obama is now leading Hillary in the America-hating traitor demographic.

Perhaps Hanoi Jane will campaign for Mister Obama.
