"Some of us have not forgotten her earlier treason."
Time has not dimmed or softened my memory of Fonda. People like her are greater enemies of the United States than were the VC or the North Vietnamese.

Hopefully, then she'll find out how peaceful and misunderstood they are.

"really believe the anti-war crowd has jumped the shark by dragging out this tired icon of anti-Americanism. Watch for a blowback." 88,
You nailed it, it's the "Regs" vs. the Long Hairs all over.
I imagine the Swift Boaters will notice this one and crank it up for one more mission.
These (Fonda types) have been trying to bring this country down and relive their glory years for what seems like an eternity. They have gone from the summer of love to the winter of Metimucil. It must stink to be them, they get to look back on their lives and see no missions accomplished. They lusted for ultimate power that will never be theirs. That is why the Gore 2000' and Kerry 2004 hit them so hard.
No matter how hard they try, they will never get that brass ring.....

As if Cindy Sheehan didn't destroy the credibility of the far left antiwar movement enough, now they trot out a person who should have spent time in prison for her role in the Viet Nam war. Same old whine in a new bottle. How are these types going to support Hillary? Notice where Hillary was during this march in DC? In the "middle of America", Iowa. She was making her FIRST real campaign stop since her announcement to run. It JUST HAPPEN to be the VERY same day as this very important "antiwar" march on Washington. This was billed as the largest anti war march in 30 years. And Hillary was half a country away. I did not see if Hillary sent a statement or make a satellite appearance. If she was being backed by this crowd, you better believe she would have been front and center. This is the Hollywood elite.
This is a very interesting unreported aspect of history yesterday.
Imagine the conflict the MSM had in covering Saturday news. Conflicting interests being asked to take sides. The bent of the stories is that Hillary is a "moderate democrat".
Lets see what comes of this ideological split of the left.

She spoke at protest rallies and, in 1972, posed for a photograph with a North Vietnamese antiaircraft gun. The act was viewed by many as unpatriotic, even treasonous, and some called her "Hanoi Jane." She has since apologized.Not true. She never apologized. Never. She issued a deceptively worded statement which she dishonestly claimed was an apology. That is not the same thing.

My brother-in-law is a Viet Nam vet who happens to believe the war in Iraq is a mistake. Surprising he doesn't get the whole "this is a Front in the GWOT", but that's another discussion. (I think there may be more Viet vets out there like him, based on what he's said.) The insertion of Hanoi Jane into the debate is going to turn his head - guaranteed - because he despises her.

re-kick starting here movie career was/is a bust... so she's going back to her old tried and true scumbag self.
Ted Turner kicked her to the curb and then Hollywood.

At the end of her tirade against the Iraq War, Fonda quietly grabbed her walker and her oxygen bottle and shuffled off to her waiting Hummer H2 which whisked her away from the demonstration.

Jane Fonda:
"Silence is no longer an option." Memo to Hanoi Jane:
In your case, [W]itch, silence is ALWAYS an option. In fact, we beg you, SHUT THE %&*# UP!
To: Anti-Bubba182
Weaks says that when Fonda was in her Hanoi Jane phase the country was "soul-deep" in the Vietnam War -- as though Fonda and the collected malcontents and under-employed celebrities mentioned here were ever either soulful or deep. To join Fonda in conflating this rally with America just shows you these people are deep in something, and it isn't soul. Best wear your hipboots.
Weaks also intones that the country -- and our collective conscience Fonda -- has since gone through many changes, but he doesn't say what they are, aside maybe from Fonda's changing hairstyles. (Fonda was once asked how she developed each of her movie characters -- she said she did it by figuring out how each one wore her hair. Can't get deeper than that.)
I find it very odd (make that self-serving) that Fonda is claiming that unlike her last period of antiwar advocacy, this time the military and their families are on her side. She seems to overlook that she spent lots of time in the early 70s going around to communities with military bases trying to politicize soldiers. That claim has always been part of her schtick.

Vietnam War veteran Orin "Spike" Tyson, 56, motored through the crowd on a Golden Companion Scooter with a U.S. flag flapping on the back. Tyson, a Lansing, Mich., resident who was wounded by shrapnel and a land mine, said he hasn't always agreed with Fonda, "but she has the right to say whatever she wants to say." But did she have the right to give aid and comfort to the enemy?
