Jane Fonda Declines War Protests
30 minutes ago
Jane Fonda says she would like to tour the country and speak out against U.S. involvement in Iraq, but her controversial history of Vietnam War protests leaves her with "too much baggage."
"I wanted to do a tour like I did during the Vietnam War, a tour of the country," the Oscar-winning actress said Monday on ABC's "Good Morning America." "But then Cindy Sheehan filled in the gap, and she is better at this than I am. I carry too much baggage."
Sheehan, whose soldier son, Casey, died in Iraq in 2004, has become a leading anti-war figure.
Fonda said that during a recent national book tour, war opponents including some Vietnam veterans asked her to speak out.
Last month, the Georgia Senate overwhelmingly rejected a resolution honoring Fonda, an Atlanta resident, for her work preventing teen pregnancy, donations to universities and charities, and role as goodwill ambassador for the United Nations.
Her political activities protesting the Vietnam War, including a trip to North Vietnam in 1972, have long made her a target of veterans.

An old bag talking about baggage.
It's so bad that local talk radio host at KABC in LA is holding a vote from his listeners as to whether to have her on as scheduled tommorrow morning.
He's that uncertain...or wishy washy.
Baggage=treason.
The baggage of being a self obsessed idiot?
Ahhhh C'mon Hanoi Jane...you can do better than that.
I don't hate many people, but Fonda's one of them.
Celebrity obituraries often make me feel sad. Hers won't.
The last person we need to hear from is Hanoi Jane.
Never forget.
"resolution honoring Fonda"
- only in U.S of A!
Hanoi Jane's baggage has these covering them!
TRAITOR
Fonda, who won Oscars for 1971's "Klute" and 1978's "Coming Home," was interviewed shortly after returning from a vacation trip to Argentina with ex-husband Ted Turner. Fonda said she and Turner remain close. "He's my favorite ex-husband," the 68-year-old actress said. "We get along great. I love to fish, and he has some beautiful property down there."

Fonda has silicone baggage on her chest.
That was my thought.
Baggage? That's what they're calling it these days?
I guess we'll file this one under the category of "Defining Deviancy Down".
Just another thing to hate her for ... she has admitted that she was a bulimic while she sucked millions for her diet/exercise books. She is a total fraud.
What we have in Fonda is a simple coward. She doesn't have the guts to go for it and take the heat this time around.
Additionally she may have been given the nix on participating by Soros and crew.
Yep, you are a coward Jane. Among other things.
