Janie, you are the classic “useful idiot.”
The only thing you regret is the PICTURE? I don’t see any apology here at all.
Just shut up. Nothing you say is helpful.
By the way, you look SO stoned in that black top / red skirt picture. What were you ON, girl?
She’s made “apologetic” noises several times in the past - must be fading from the public eye again and feel the need to get some publicity...
“Janie, you are the classic “useful idiot.”
Janie supposedly gave a list of American prisoners she was given by a POW in a handshake to an NVA guard, indicating which POW had given it to her.
That American POW was allegedly beaten almost to death.
(Much worse than a useful idiot-more like a complcit idiot.)
IMHO
To date all of her “apologies” haven't been apologies - they have been complaints. She is still complaining that our remembering her traitorous actions in 1972 is costing her money 10, 20, 30, 40 years later. her first apology was made when a new series of exercise tapes flipped. Now she “apologizes” to save ticket sales of her latest movie.
BTW what movies did she act in between 1980 and 2010?
She’s on Botox and bad plastic surgery. Sheesh, she looks awful!
In reading the entire editorial, I was struck - yet again - how publicly Fonda still defends her trip to Hanoi while “apologizing” for the photo. Yet in her own autobio, she clearly blames Tom Hayden for setting her up to take the trip. She wonders why he didn’t travel with her and concludes that he was too cowardly to go.
Ms. Fonda doth protest too much.
No Jane. I cannot forgive that. Hands, arms, legs, and faces were smashed because of what you did. I remember.
Very good point. The photo-op was about 5% of her ill-will tour, and she did some other skank stuff when they ran out some American POW's to meet her. One of them reportedly passed her a note, and she gave it to the guards. All class, Left Wing style.
Joanie Baez is a good point of reference for measuring Jane in the scales. Joan went over to Hanoi on a similar propagandist-catered trip during Operation Linebacker, when Dick Nixon brought our mailed fist down on the negotiating table and repeated, "Let my people go!" after the Viet Communist pukes coolly informed Henry the K. that no, the American POW's would not be coming home as part of an agreement.
Joan was outside her air-raid shelter watching the battle one night, when a SAM bagged a B-52 pretty spectacularly, and she and her group watched it come down streaming burning fuel. Just then a French Communist puke slithered up to her and said, "It's a beautiful sight, isn't it?" And Baez just looked at him and replied, "They are my people."
That was the right answer, Jane.
Somebody ought to put that in a movie.
