If Nixon hadn't caved into the minority anti-war crowd
and listened to the Silent Majority
Hanoi Jane AND Hanoi Kerry
would have been prosecuted for their treason in the 70's,
while Nixon was still President.

Keep in mind that Nixon was directly involved in Viet Nam,
as Vice President, going back to at least 1955.

So Hanoi Jane AND Hanoi Kerry keep a high profile,
and always watch your yellow backs.
Nixon is NOT HERE to protect you.
You are on your own.

About Vietnam

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 to Fonda and Kerry and the domestic communist front groups, this flag disappeared along with freedom of speech, property rights, personal liberty, and countless South Vietnamese. Hanoi Jane, do the cries of beaten and tortured villagers keep you awake at night? Do the hunger pangs of people starved, beaten, a worked to death in "reeducation centres" ever cross your mind you communist sympathising wh*re?

She was a skank back then and she's still is and will forever be a skank!!

She bedded with the enemy while our boys were dying so that she could enjoy her freedom.

In the end, she will be judged by a Higher Authority.

What I cannot understand about Jane Fonda, and others of her ilk, is that there are no bounds to her depravity. To wit:

1. She is a traitor and she encouraged others to be traitors 40 years ago.

2. Despite this she goes on in a self-righteous fashion to pursue her entertainment career. Moreover, when she was protested (I remember this from 20 years ago), her response was that the Vietnam Vets simply needed to "get over it."

3. 40 years later she issues an apology. Well, OK, I'm a Christian, I'll listen.

4. But, within a few days she is on C-SPAN giving a lecture about the mistakes we are making in Iraq. Her exact quote from a few days ago was: "In war, the first principle is that you need to know your enemy."

She actually said that!!!!

Jane Fonda, who was apologizing one day, was giving us military advice the next. Jane Fonda, actress, is giving Vietnam Vets and others military advice.

This is beyond comprehension for any decent, sane individual.

Tonk - Your image of the book jacket Aid and Comfort got me thinking. I logged onto Amazon and ordered a copy (at a very reasonable cost, too).

I'd love to ask Hanoi J. Fonda to sign it, but they probably don't let holders of that book within spitting distance of her. 8^D

Mo. Man Spits Tobacco Juice on Jane Fonda

Apr 20, 7:49 PM (ET)
TIM CURRAN

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - A man spit tobacco juice into the face of Jane Fonda after waiting in line to have her sign her new memoir. Capt. Rich Lockhart of the Kansas City Police Department said Michael A. Smith, 54, was arrested Tuesday night on a municipal charge of disorderly conduct.

He was released on bond and is due to appear in court on May 27.

Fonda covers a wide range of topics in "My Life So Far," including her 1972 visit to Hanoi to protest the Vietnam War, during which she was photographed on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun. She has apologized for the photo, but not for opposing the war.

Smith, a Vietnam veteran, told The Kansas City Star Wednesday that Fonda was a "traitor" and that her protests against the Vietnam War were unforgivable. He said he doesn't chew tobacco but did so Tuesday solely to spit juice on the actress.

"I consider it a debt of honor," he told The Star for a story on its Web site. "She spit in our faces for 37 years. It was absolutely worth it. There are a lot of veterans who would love to do what I did."

Fonda, who flew to Minneapolis Wednesday for another appearance on her book tour, issued a statement through Jynne Martin of Random House.

"In spite of the incident, my experience in Kansas City was wonderful and I thank all the warm and supportive people, including so many veterans, who came to welcome me last night," she said.

Fonda drew a crowd of about 900 at Unity Temple, said Vivian Jennings, whose Rainy Day Books of suburban Fairway, Kan., sponsored the event.

Jennings said the 67-year-old actress never got up from her seat and continued autographing books after the tobacco juice was wiped off.

"The important thing is that she was so calm and so gracious about it," Jennings said. "She was wonderful."
