Presidential historian Douglas Brinkley revealed Sunday that Democratic presidential front-runner John Kerry personally met with "Hanoi Jane" Fonda

That is a distortion of the truth in that they are attempting to link Kerry to "Hanoi" Jane. Hanoi Jane went to North Vietname in 1972 and 1974 a full year or so after this rally they were at. So Kerry meet with Jane before she was Hanoi Jane-before her trip to Hanoi and the attempt to make it seem so is disingenuous and even Clintonian. That is why this issue will not make any headway with vetrens and Dennis Miller dismissed the photo it on his television show. Pushing this issue in this manner is not only counter productice but makes our side look foolish, ignorant of the hostorical time frame and turns independent voters off.

You all want to earn a medal? Find proof of a Kerry-Fonda meeting AFTER her trip to Hanoi. That would be killer.

This is a losing issue anyway. Concentrate on Kerry’s vicious rhetoric and attacks now, and his voting record after he calls for a new tone. This Hanoi Jane BS will work against us, makes us look like dirt mongers.

Amen. See my #23. Any meeting with Fonda happened before she went to Hanoi.

This morning on Fox News Sunday, someone (I think it was Brit Hume) dismissed this as well, saying that Kerry met with Fonda a full two years before she went to Hanoi.

Jane Fonda has gone on record as wanting a communist (her choice of word) America, as early as 1970. "Hanoi Jane" fits at that point.

That's actually irrelevant. By the time of the meetings, she was very visibly active as an "antiwar" (meaning pro communist) organizer. The trips to Hanoi were merely the culmination of her traitorous activities.
