Jane Fonda has said that she will be leaving the protests against the U.S. presence in Iraq to Cindy Sheehan. However, the DUmmies are definitely looking to their heroine, Hanoi Jane, for advice as you can see in this DUmmie THREAD titled, "Jane Fonda's message to DU about how to stop the war." Perhaps the DUmmies would like to pose on camera next to an IED just like Jane Fonda did by gleefully sitting at an anti-aircraft battery in Hanoi and playfully pretending to shoot down American aircraft. (Note: I searched the Web but was unable to find the video Jane Fonda at the Hanoi anti-aircraft battery. If anybody out there can find the video, please send me the link and I will update this DUFU edition with the link.) So let us now watch the DUmmies turn with awe for advice from Hanoi Jane in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, who notes that Jane has been on a downslope ever since "Barbarella," is in the [brackets]:
Jane Fonda's message to DU about how to stop the war:
[Pay attention to Hanoi Jane, DUmmies.]
1. Massive - that is, MASSIVE - demonstrations in the streets - especially in D.C.
[Like the one last September that was completely forgotten on the very day it occurred even though Pied Piper Pitt organized it. (Disclaimer: Pied Piper Pitt never EVER had any contact whatsoever with the A.N.S.W.E.R. comrades even though his PDA organization worked closely with A.N.S.W.E.R. to organize that demonstration. Pitt was able to prevent all contact with A.N.S.W.E.R. by having himself hermetically sealed in a giant body condom so as to prevent infection from the deadly Communist A.N.S.W.E.R. microbes.)]
2. Write LETTERS to your congresspersons and senators - look, people, e-mails are easy to delete. Imagine you're a congresswoman in 1974 and you get several large bagsfull of letters every day dumped in your office. If you live in 1974, you're one of those congresswomen who begged Jane Fonda to call off her "troops" because you "got the message" and you're going to change your vote.
[DUAC! DUAC! This probably won't work since it would require too much effort on the part of the DUmmies. Placing a letter in an envelope, addressing it, and adding a stamp is way too much WORK for them.]
That's what Jane Fonda said yesterday on Air America.
[Jane had more listeners on Radio Hanoi.]
She also said that the current Bushista line is nothing more than the old Reagan line: that Vietnam was lost because of a bunch of lefty congressmen and a bunch of leftie demonstrators, and that Jane Fonda is a traitor.
They're all a pack of lies.
[Definitely NOT the traitor part.]
Except that those of us who filled the streets, especially in Washington D.C. brought the Vietnam war to an end because we also wrote LETTERS and convinced our Congressmen to quit financing the war. It can be done again, but NOT by deletable e-mails. Or just phone calls. Send traditional LETTERS and bury their offices with bags of letters.
[You really do have a hangup about sending PAPER letters. Like I stated earlier, it won't work since it requires too much WORK on the part of the DUmmies. And now let us hear more (non-paper) love letters from the DUmmies to Jane Fonda.]
I like it, fill the streets.
[Which reminds me. Weren't there already at least TWO DUmmie proposals to FILL THE STREETS of D.C. with DUmmies in April and take over the government? Can this count as the THIRD such proposal that FIZZLED out?]
We did it in the sixties. We did it every chance we got. We stood vigils in the night, in the rain, in the snow. We marched. We sang. We had teach-ins, where people who knew what was going on instructed those who wanted to learn. We marched and sang and never never never backed down. We never shut up. We changed the world. Now, it's time for the younger generation to do it. We're backing them up, but it's their fight now. We did it for them, made them safe, and now they've got to do it for their next generation.
Never stop.
Never yield.
NEVER NEVER NEVER shut up.
[You NEVER NEVER NEVER shut up about how WUUUUUNDERFUL the sixties were.]
We also impeached Nixon. With humongous demonstrations in the streets of Washington, D.C. the days after the "Saturday Night Massacre" and forced Congress to begin the impeachment investigation.
[Another DUmmie in need of a history lesson. Nixon was never impeached. He resigned. However, Slick Willie WAS impeached.]
F*ckface is just F*ckface - a murderous, delusional, megalomaniacal monster - and needs to be introduced to the finer points of how the Khmer Rouge operated during what is known over there as the "American War" - summary execution.
[That pretty much sounds like a death threat. Please turn yourself in to the nearest Secret Service office, DUmmie OldLeftieLawyer. I repeat...OldLeftieLawyer.]
Efficient. Gotta love them KR.
[Oh, and when you turn yourself in to the nearest Secret Service office, please include that "charming" postscript, DUmmie OldLeftieLawyer. I repeat... OldLeftieLawyer.]
DELUGE YOUR SENATORS AND CONGRESSMEN/WOMEN WITH LETTERS, NOT E-MAILS.
[WASTE PAPER AND CAUSE MORE TREES TO BE CHOPPED DOWN.]
I've been screeching for the past few years that keyboards and comfortable chairs are not where the revolution takes place. Emails are rubbish, and worthless - just like those online "petitions" that are nonsense and wastes of time. Bodies in the streets, people's voices lifted up in unending screams for justice, right, liberty, law. Noise. Commotion. Disruption. Energy. NOT sitting at a keyboard. NOT comfortable in your home, office, cubicle, whatever. OUT THERE. Refusing to be quiet. Refusing to go quietly. Refusing to shut up. Refuse, refuse, refuse, and NEVER YIELD. Letters. They're just emails cut and pasted, printed on good paper, with an enveope and a real signature (that matters A LOT), and one lousy stamp. They pile up. Emails don't.
[So lectures DUmmie OldLeftieLawyer not realizing the self-irony of posting this message in cyberspace. BTW, have you turned yourself in yet to the Secret Service for your death threat, DUmmie OldLeftieLawyer? I repeat... OldLeftieLawyer.]
1. Massive Demonstrations
2. Write Letters (SNAIL MAIL - NOT E-MAIL)
[Apparently the new DUmmie mantra is that snail mail will turn the tide for them. The DUmmies are just $10 worth of stamps away from bringing about their Bolshevik Revolution.]
BODIES IN THE STREETS! That's it. People are lazy and are getting what they're deserving because they can't understand that they've got to get OFF THEIR ASSES and out into the streets. It's that primitive, and it's that POWERFUL. Good to be back, Seabiscuit. Life's been batting this OldLeftie around, but she's back now, more pissed off than ever. BODIES IN THE STREETS, SIGNATURES ON THE LETTERS, ADDRESSES ON THE TOP, and A STAMP THAT GETS IT THERE, INTO A STAFFER'S HOT LITTLE HAND.
[You'll have plenty of time to send out those snail mails after your incarceration, DUmmie OldLeftieLawyer. Have you turned yourself in to the Secret Service yet, OldLeftieLawyer? I repeat... OldLeftieLawyer.]
Ms Fonda is correct about having mass protests, but gee -- haven't there already been MASSIVE protests all over the country? She might not be aware of them because none of the networks carry them -- they are played down or are ignored. C-Span is the only place you might see such a protest. The networks didn't even carry the protest march in New York -- as massive as it was -- during the Nazi rally whoops I meant the RNC convention.
[The reason why the MSM ignores your protests is because it is almost impossible to avoid the nutjobs which would make the Left look bad. However, I do appreciate C-SPAN coverage of such events since that allows us to see just what kind of nutcases show up at these A.N.S.W.E.R. sponsored demonstrations. (Of course Pied Piper Pitt never EVER had any contact with the communist A.N.S.W.E.R. comrades.)]
The demonstrations haven't been anything nearly like what they were in the sixties. The big one that took place in DC back last year was marred by people with too many loopy agendae and bad, bad poetry. It lacked focus, and it made NO NOISE.
[You can blame the organizer of that event, Pied Piper Pitt (who never had ANY contact with the A.N.S.W.E.R. comrades) for that disaster.]
I'm talking raging, raving madmen and madwomen out there in the streets, never surrendering, never shutting up, not just marching nicely and sauntering along. I'm talking about MAYHEM! That's all that's going to get anyone's attention. Mayhem. Disorder. Disruption. NEVER YIELDING.
[NEVER SHOWING SANITY.]
Can I have a hug?
[The previous DUmmie post by OldLeftieLawyer must have activated her G-spot.]
We shut it down with the sheer weight of numbers of bodies in the streets, on the sidewalks, around the entrances/exits, approaches, etc., and the sheer weight of people on cell phones and computers e-mailing and phoning to jam their servers and their phone lines. We SHUT IT DOWN.
[Yawn. Been there. Done that. DUmmie benburch proposed exactly the SAME THING weeks ago. Result: nothing.]
More stolen from "Steal This Book"... KNIFE FIGHTING... MOLOTOV COCKTAIL... STERNO BOMB... AEROSOL BOMB... PIPE BOMBS... GENERAL BOMB STRATEGY...
[These were ONLY the title excerpts posted by DUmmie Gman in REPLY #60. You can read the full details of his terrorist planning directly on this DUmmie thread. Oh, and DUmmie Gman. No need to turn yourself in to the Secret Service like DUmmie OldLeftieLawyer. Instead you need to turn yourself in to either the FBI or the Department of Homeland Security. I repeat... DUmmie Gman.]
Gotta bookmark this thread. You have provided much valuable information, and on behalf of activists of DU, there is much gratitude owed to you for taking the trouble to distribute information from one of the most effective agents of antiwar protest.
[A terrorist acolyte has bookmarked this thread for the bomb making details so thoughtfully provide by DUmmie Gman. I repeat... DUmmie Gman.]
It's okay to be furious with Bush these days. Hell -- Chuck Hagel might join the parade!
[Chuck Hagel gets a DUmmie endorsement. That's sure to help him win the Republican Presidential nomination... NOT!]
WRITE LETTERS. Say what's in your mind and in your heart. Sign your name. Place your address and the date at the top of the letter. Use a stamp. Mail the letter. Use nice paper and envelopes. MAKE PEOPLE HANDLE YOUR MAIL!!!! It's all about HANDS-ON!!!!!!!!!!! It's the USPS equivalent of BODIES IN THE STREETS, SCREAMING, DEMANDING, NEVER BACKING DOWN.
[Once the DUmmies have picked up on the hard copy snail mail mantra they just never let up. Snail Mail has become their Holy Grail for Bolshevik Revolution.]
YES! THAT IS THE ESSENCE OF JANE FONDA'S MESSAGE! Plus, of course, more bodies in the streets - MANY MORE, YES, MUCHO, MAS, MANY BODIES IN THE STREETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Are you sure you weren't getting that message from Fonda's exercise video? Maybe you need more bodies in the streets performing aerobics.]
BODIES IN THE STREETS IN HUGE NUMBERS and LETTERS BY THE TON, HARD COPIES WITH OUR NAMES SIGNED ... it seems the only way to really get their attention in D.C. where the only game in town for politicians is to pad their own cushy, mean little lives with ever more money and power and to stay in their jobs as long as we'll let them. THEY NEED A WAKE UP CALL THEY CANNOT IGNORE!
[Yeah, yeah. We get it. The new BODIES IN THE STREETS and HARD COPY SNAIL MAIL shtick which will be about as successful as all the other DUmmie failures.]
THREE WORDS: DEMONSTRATE + SNAIL MAIL!!!
[TWO WORDS: BWA + HAHA!!!]
Im sorry, but Im not gonna hitch my star to Jane Fonda. Frikken fruitcake.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
She has passed the torch to Cindy Sheehan and others.
[Jane Fonda has passed the torch to Cindy Sheehan to act as the new Frikken fruitcake.]
Look, she came out some time ago about that picture of her poised on an anti-aircraft battery, pointing out that she was suddenly ushered onto it withhout explanation and bingo, pictures were taken, and spread around. It was not her intent to pretend that she was shooting down American planes, as the "Hanoi Jane" photo opportunists have pretended all these years. It was just a mistake that she was inadvertantly sucked into.
[I've seen the video of Jane Fonda sitting at the anti-aircraft battery. She was OVERJOYED with happiness as she GLEEFULLY pretended to shoot down American planes. If someone out there can send me a video link of that episode, I will update it to this edition of the DUmmie FUnnies for all to see...and judge for themselves if Hanoi Jane was an unwilling dupe or not.]
the most impactful written communications to Congress are . . . hand-written letters . . . individually typed and signed letters are next . . .
[Since all else has failed, the DUmmies now plan to mail in their Revolution.]
Let me congratulate them on already mastering this part. Especially in situations where they don't know what they're talking about.
Uh-huh.
Signing online petitions and sending mass e-mails is alas the fullest extent of DUmmie activism (true activists don't waste a whole lot of time on the internet; they're out in the real world, dealing with real people).
Today's DUmmies make even the hippies of long-ago yesteryear look industrious and hard-working.
Actually, this is good advice. All indications point to the fact that Congresscritters take regular mail far more seriously than faxes, which in turn are taken far more seriously than emails.
That said, this ship sailed a long time ago... as usual, the DUmmies are fighting a battle that has already been relegated to history instead of looking forward.
One good thing... if Congresscritters get (signed) postal mail that include some of the whackier statements these DUmmies make, especially the ones that hint at violence, hopefully some of those letters will get referred to the proper authorities...
Who's the murderous, delusional monster here?
[WASTE PAPER AND CAUSE MORE TREES TO BE CHOPPED DOWN.]
Every time a DUmmie sends a pointless letter to a Congresscritter, Algore sheds another tear for the environment.
Birth control, Ho Chi Minh, Richard Nixon, back again
Moonshot, Woodstock, Watergate, punk rock
We didn't start the fire...
I'm a big fan of that song, but I once heard it desribed as sounding like it was a term paper on 20th Century history written by a drunken slacker-student the the wee hours of the morning it was due.
I love how oldleftielawyer is too stupid to know that the Khmer Rouge would have killed him if he was in Cambodia. Great role model dude!
God I hate DUmmies. I only wish they revealed themselves in public so we could identify them better.

"Except that those of us who filled the streets, especially in Washington D.C. brought the Vietnam war to an end..."
Pridefully celebrating the resulting death of millions of innocent men, women and children. Pridefully celebrating that they brought defeat to the United States. Dummies love being the losers!
From the hindsight of history, and being someone who was never personally, physically, or emotionally involved with the war in Vietnam and its domestic distress, it seems to me something else, and not the stupid pre-DUmmies, brought an end to that war.
From reading the magazines and newspapers of the era, it strikes me that "Middle America" had a great deal to do with it, mostly in the uncertainty about the "aim" of the war.
As late as 1969, public-opinion polls showed less than 25% of Americans wanted us to "cut and run" from Vietnam--for all the good the stupid pre-DUmmies did on the streets.
I get the impression, from contemporary written reports, that the uncertainty of Middle America about that war did more to bring it to its unhappy conclusion.
This is why, with Iraq and Afghanistan, it is important to ignore the "August 1918 syndrome."
No one here of course remembers August 1918, but at that time, America had been involved in the war in Europe for 16 months, and it was a bloody stalemate (I hesitate, strongly and vehemently, to suggest there is any "stalemate" in Iraq and Afghanistan, though). The lines were still where they had always been, nothing moved, and the Germans were sending lots and lots of troops west, having concluded a treaty with the Soviet Russians.
In fact, while I do not remember the dates of battles, it seems to me that the summer of 1918, the Germans had inflicted more damage upon the allies than they had ever done (someone correct me if wrong).
So.....the war seemed to be getting nowhere, and there was much discontent in America, especially among Middle America.
Why were we there? What were we gaining?
Of course, a mere three months later, the Germans collapsed, utterly collapsed.
It makes one freeze the blood, how close we actually came, to withdrawing from Europe, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
I thought Vietnam was lost because it was never a declared war. Just a "police action", so our troops had their hands tied. Having not been born until the end of it, I really don't know. Maybe others could tell me?
Imagine you're a congresswoman in 1974...
Since these guys already live in a world of delusion, why don't they just imagine the war is over, or better yet, never happened, and shut up.
What is this, a dress-up fetish for the DU trans-gendered community?
You may be correct; a "police action" is taken merely to "control" a limited situation, while a war is undertaken to win it, period.
This goes back to Middle America not being certain about the "aim" of our involvement in Vietnam.
And yes, it appears the hands of the troops were tied, by micro-managers in Washington.
Incidentally, the "August 1918 syndrome" occurred in Vietnam, too.
Someone correct me if I am wrong, but it seems the Tet Offensive of January 1968 broke the back, or nearly broke the back, of the North Vietnamese.
Only the American news media propagated the Tet Offensive as a defeat for America, and our Vietnamese allies--and unfortunately our television-news-permeated society "bought" the story.
Apparently the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong saw the Tet Offensive differently.....and then were pleasantly surprised to see Americans believing a myth.
If one was a congresswoman in 1974, the odds were that one was Republican.
The DUmmies know no history; the first woman (1916) to be a congressman was Republican, and all during the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, and into the late 1960s, the overwhelming majority of women in Congress were.....Republican.
In fact, at one time during the late 1960s, early 1970s, the ONLY woman in the U.S. Senate, the ONLY black in the U.S. Senate, and the ONLY Chinese-derived in the U.S. Senate were.....Republican.
But DUmmies don't know this, of course.
The DUmmies must turned out en masse for that particular demonstration, if it was dominated by loopy people and.....bad writing.
Damn, that post 60 is truely a terrorist's handbook. So much for the idea that they stand for peace and nonviolence.
