HANOI JANE COMES CLEAN
The former Mrs. Ted Turner, Jane Fonda, has come out with a new book. She is making the rounds doing publicity...and she has given an interview to '60 Minutes' that will air this Sunday. In it, she admits (sort of) that she was wrong to go to North Vietnam and visit an anti-aircraft gun site used to shoot down U.S. pilots. Well isn't that nice....but she's a bit late, don't you think?
Fonda says that her trip to the gun site some 33 years ago was a "betrayal" of the U.S. military, its soldiers and "the country that gave me privilege." She calls the picture of her sitting on the enemy gun barrel the largest lapse of judgment she can imagine. Really. So what about the whole decision to visit North Vietnam in the first place? She won't apologize for that. No, Hanoi Jane will only apologize for posing for pictures with enemy weaponry. She won't apologize for being photographed with American POWs, nor will she apologize for going on Radio Hanoi and being a propaganda mouthpiece for the Viet Cong.
Jane Fonda gave aid and comfort to the enemy of the United States during a time of war. We used to call that treason, and there are people sitting in prison for it. Somehow, Jane Fonda got away with it...and now she wants us all to relieve her of her guilty conscience.
Bullsqueeze. She's got a new movie coming out soon, and thinks she'll --
A. Up the box office by trying to sucker a bunch of us into thinking she's remorseful over what she did.
B. Preemptively try to defuse the criticism that's sure to come her way once the promotion for the movie begins ("She apologized. You right-wing knuckle draggers need to get over it!")
"Not buying it, nor will I ever forgive her."
I was in Saigon when the word came out she was in Hanoi - she went from worshipped goddess in my heart and mind to despised scum in less than a heartbeat - I was amazed at the polarity and speed of the emotional shift.
Nor will I ever forgive her.
Too little too late Janie!
Perhaps you could drive her there...using your knees. :o)
She is just trying to peddle her book.
She is just trying to peddle her book.
At least this traitor didn't convince a major political party to run her for president. I'll give her that much.
"Hanoi Jane gave aid and comfort to the enemy of the United States during a time of war. We used to call that treason, and there are people sitting in prison for it. Somehow, Jane Fonda got away with it...and now she wants us all to relieve her of her guilty conscience."
Uphold the US Constituion!
Too bad the "Move On" FReepers just don't understand
the real threat that the likes of Hanoi Kerry pose to our country.
I just don't understand their reasoning in saying
"drop it", "your wasting your time", "give it up" etc.
Some even howl when I remind them the job is NOT done.
Well I have news for them.
I've been posting threads
on the Viet Nam anti war "crowd"
almost from day one on FR.

So why do they think I'll stop now?
Don't be like the Silent Majority in the 60's and 70's
Demand Kerry be ousted from the US Senate!
There is no need to impeach Hanoi Kerry from the US Senate
He is there illegally!
Kerry was an illegal candidate
and is an illegal US Senator per
US Constitution 14th Amendment Section 3
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.amendmentxiv.html
WAKEUP AMERICA!
For those who "forgot" what Hanoi Kerry
did in the past read on and learn the truth.
Hanoi Kerry was still a USNR officer while he:
gave false hearsay testimony to Congress
negotiated with the enemy
helped the US lose a war
abetted in the deaths of millions
created a hostile environment for all servicemen
Why is Kerry still in the US Senate?
This is in violation of
U.S. Constitution Amendment 14 Sec 3
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.amendmentxiv.html
And the FBI has proof of his treason.

Kerry and Julia traveled to Paris, France and met with Madame Nguyen Thi Binh, the Foreign Minister of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of Vietnam (PRG), the political wing of the Vietcong, and other Viet Cong and Communist Vietnamese representatives to the Paris peace talks, a trip he now calls a "fact-finding" mission.
(U.S. code 18 U.S.C. 953, declares it illegal for a U.S. citizen to go abroad and negotiate with a foreign power.)

Read this great piece of writing by one of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, my friend Pete Webster of Jacksonville, Florida:
The morning news had a teaser about this, and the Drudge Report carried the story today, of the interview Jane Fonda gave to host journalist, Leslie Stahl, which will appear on 60 minutes later this weekend. She admitted she betrayed the country when she posed on the anti-air craft gun in Hanoi and said it was a tremendous "lapse of judgment" on her part, but still refused to apologize for her anti-war speeches that she gave on Hanoi radio and her exploitation of the POWs. The article went on to say:
She wouldn't make similar broadcasts in Iraq today, however, saying, "I don't think it's the same situation at all. When I went [to North Vietnam]...we had been fighting in Vietnam for eight years. The majority of Americans...[and] Congress opposed the war. It was a desperate time."
With this opinion, I take great umbrage. Why does the length of time we had been fighting excuse the betrayal? Would she have stayed home and supported the troops if we had only been fighting for three years? Had she ever made a USO tour, or a benefit for the troops, in any of those preceding years? Bah! Humbug! Does the unpopularity of the war make betrayal acceptable? Is any war ever "popular? Don't you think some folks, in 1943, felt WWII, "Mr Roosevelt's war." was unpopular? Let's examine why the war in Viet Nam was so unpopular.
Wasn't it unpopular due to the unrelenting attack by the left that she represented and due to the spin by the liberal bias in the press? In some studies, authors have claimed the left has opposed any war against communism, because many of those, especially in Hollywood, have roots in the communist movement. We, more than anyone else, now how the media and Hollywood can create a false consciousness out of the political activism of a few radicals like Fonda. She said the government lied to us, but wasn't that the spin the liberal press put on it? We have just watched the media attempt to do the same thing with the war in Iraq, but thanks to the Internet, they have been thwarted by the people at large and not able to create a false consciousness about the war as they did with Viet Nam.
If we had operated an Internet in the USA in 1965, no radical leftist professors on any campus could have sold the concept the war as a civil war, unjust, or immoral, because folks could have gone to a search engine like Google or Ask Jeeves and found out that Viet Nam had never been a unified country that was torn with internal strife, but had always been, for thousands of years, three separate countries, Cochin, Annan, and Tonkin, with three separate capitols, Saigon, Hue and Hanoi, and three separate cultures and legal systems, totally independent. They could have easily found out that the north was the outside aggressor and that we had treaty obligations to defend a member state like the south, the same way that Australia, Thailand and Korea did. Nothing immoral about that, nor unjust. If we had an Internet and armies of bloggers, the WW II vets might have rallied, like the Swift Vets did, and come to our aid when the radical professors began telling their students to spit on us. Who knows? All I am saying is that our assistance to help Iraq is no different in substance than our aid was to South Viet Nam. Both were altruistic and noble efforts to help a people over come the grip of tyranny and enjoy a greater degree of freedom than offered by a brutal, totalitarian regime like Ho's or Saddam's and we should stop letting the left, a la Jane Fonda, try to excuse their wrong behavior, by disguising betrayal in the cloak of a distinction without a difference. Wrong then; wrong now.

The Vietnam war was the longest in our nation's history.
1st American advisor was killed on June 08, 1956,
and the last casualties in connection with the war occurred on May 15, 1975, during the Mayaquez incident. Approximately 2.7 million Americans served in the war zone; 300,000 were wounded and approximately 75,000 permanently disabled. Officially there are still 1,991 Americans unaccounted for from SE Asia.
Vietnam was a savage, in your face war where death could and did strike from anywhere with absolutely no warning. The brave young men and women who fought that war paid an awful price of blood, pain and suffering. As it is said: "ALL GAVE SOME ... SOME GAVE ALL"
The Vietnam war was not lost on the battlefield. No American force in ANY other conflict fought with more determination or sheer courage than the Vietnam Veteran. For the first time in our history America sent it's young men and women into a war run by inept politicians who had no grasp of military strategies and no moral will to win. They were led by "top brass" who were concerned mainly with furthering their own careers, most neither understood the nature of the war nor had a clue about the impossible mission with which they'd tasked their soldiers. And the war was reported by a self serving Media who penned stories filled with inaccuracies, deliberate omissions, biased presentations and blatant distorted interpretations because they were more interested in a story than the truth! It can be debated that we should never have fought that war. It can also be argued that the young Americans who fought so courageously, never losing a single major battle, helped in a huge way to WIN THE COLD WAR.
Thanks for the ping brother! We will never forgive or forget the Hanoi whore bitch and her partner in crime,the traitor Kerry, for aiding and abetting the enemy.
She could bathe every hour on the hour but she'll never come clean.
Thanks tonk..
Hanoi Jane is co-starring in a movie with J-Lo to be released in May.
My family won't be watching it at the theater or renting the DVD.
No offense against Jennifer Lopez intended.
