'Hanoi Jane' Set to Play Nancy Reagan in New Film

Sometimes Hollywood casting directors must chuckle into their sleeves at the way their decisions drive conservatives to distraction. Case in point - this news flash concerning Oscar-winner Jane Fonda's new project: Jane Fonda is going to be playing Nancy Reagan in a new movie. Oh yes. According to Variety, the reviled-by-conservatives actress/activist has joined the cast of "The Butler," the new Lee Daniels drama about a White House servant (Forest Whitaker) whose career lasted from the Truman Administration to Ronald Reagan's. Daniels is also looking to Liam Neeson to play Lyndon Johnson and John Cusack to play Richard Nixon. Arch-liberals Fonda and Cusack playing a pair of major figures on the Right? Conservatives should stock up on antacids starting ... now.

I’m sure it will be a BIG hit.

Jane Fonda totally unfit to play any part of Nancy Reagan.

WTF are these people thinking to cast that traitorous scumbag in that part.

[SAJ]

Another propaganda piece coming up. Who would have thought that, after the uniformly failed series of agitprop films about Iraq, et al., that even the brain-dead marginally human lefty film producer types would have gotten the mssg.

Am I wrong, or has the only profitable "film" for the agitprop types over the past 5 years been Cameron's little blue-skin cartoon?

[SevenofNine]

I don’t think she look like Nancy Reagan was Nancy petite Hanoi Jane too tall or too big LOL!

[dead]

John Cusack to play Richard Nixon

That's awesome. Who's playing Kissinger? Leonardo DiCaprio?

[Vision]

These liberals do things like this because, subconsciously, they know they are crazed losers and they're trying to beat back reality.

[jazusamo]

This is for Hanoi Jane and the Hollywood libs.

[easternsky]

Not FONDA JANE, old statement but never tire of saying it.

[tet68]

Hanoi Jane?
Isn’t she a little tall to be playing Nancy R?
What we are seeing here is the re-writing of our
history from a socialist viewpoint.
When they control your history, they control
your future.

Jane would be better off portraying a panic stricken
traitoress on seeing the gallows.

[Army Air Corps]

One day, that traitorous b***ch will become compost. I plan to “add nitrogen” to her grave.

[Jane Long]

Sad leftists can only make money portraying conservatives. If they make movies playing other leftists, no one goes to see them.

[MtBaldy]

“Jane Fonda totally unfit to play any part of Nancy Reagan.”

Nah, I might be ok with seeing her play the part Nancy Reagan flushed down the toilet every morning.

[stars & stripes forever]

In the words of the Gipper, “You’re no Nancy Reagan, Jane Fonda.”

[Average Al]

Why do they keep wasting their money on these cr*ppy movies?
Neither the libs nor the conservatives want to watch this drivel.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Disgusting

[EEGator]

Is Bill Maher playing the Pope?

[moovova]

Maybe Ted will go see it...but not too many other people.

I won’t.

[Pollster1]

Clever marketing decision - half the country would never watch a movie about Nancy Reagan, and the other half would never watch a movie with Jane Fonda. I’m glad to see Hollywood doing something this stupid.

[Bringbackthedraft]

Errr, where is the box office for the advance tickets to this movie? I wouldn’t miss it for anything, NOT!
