KANSAS CITY, Mo. --

Police said they arrested a man for spitting on Academy Award winning actress Jana Fonda during a book-signing stop in Kansas City Tuesday night.

Fonda, 67, spoke at Unity Temple, in The Plaza shopping district, about her new book, "My Life So Far" and her new movie with Jennifer Lopez called "Monster-In-Law."

At about 9 p.m., police said a man who had been waiting in line for about 90 minutes, passed a book to Fonda and then spit a large amount of tobacco juice into her face.

Thy said the man then ran away and was taken into custody by off-duty officers, who were providing security for the event.

Fonda declined to prosecute the man for allegedly spitting in her face.

Michael A. Smith, 54, was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, which is a city charge.

Poetic justice with a hint of irony.
She got soldiers returning from Vietnam spit upon.
And finally someone spits on her.
It isn't right either way.
But my 'outrage' at her being spit upon is attenuated by her actions to get Americans killed.

Contrast this to the pie throwing retards recently.
Ann Coulter didn't throw any pies at anyone, and did not do her best to get Americans killed, so someone assaulting her with a pie is more of an outrage.

I have no sympathy for Mizz Fonda as she is a traitor.

He's 54, that's definitely Vietnam-era veteran stock

[skinkinthegrass]

Well coming to think of it... it's payback for all the spitting on the veterans had to put up with.

This is only going to increase her book sales.

[TigersEye]

I don't care how much she makes it's the fact that she's still trading on her treason for fame and fortune that galls me.

Amen, Stashiu.

Maybe he should join the church of spit and declare religious immunity.

[ariamne]

I understand the man's feelings and share them 100%, but pie throwing and salad dressing spritzing is for the DUers and the left.

Yes, unbidden is a feeling of glee about the incident, but I'm with you Doug.

[stand watie]

obviously, he mistook her for a CUSPIDOR!

an honest & understandable mistake.

"Why does this remind me of the outlaw "Josey Wells?""

Was the hound dog a b!tch?

[ariamne]

Hi sw,

Always like to take the opportunity to say hi--
I like the idea of a relative of a Vet killed in Vietnam due to Hanoi Jane's treason to show up at every book signing with a blown-up photo of their loved one. Follow her around, force her to see the faces of her victims.

Love and hugs,

You sound like Dukakis and what he would do if someone raped his wife.
=====================================================

We have a winner. That is perhaps the most bizarre post ever made to me. I understand the guy's anger. I acknowledge that he earned the right. She deserved it. Because I wouldn't do it, there is a comparison of me to Dukakis. Someone please put on the Twilight Zone music.

[ariamne]

Great, thoughtful post, as usual. Please put me or keep me on ping list. I can't thank you enough for letting me atone to one whose bravery and courage was so undermined.
Carry on.

[doug from upland]

The appropriate song was done HERE.

"Your Honor, I reserve the right to spit on all traitors!"

[John Lenin]

I'd donate to his fine charges.

[investigateworld]

Maybe he was thinking of this.

[stand watie]

WELL SAID, darlin'!!!!

Doug?

You don't remind ME of Dukakis. But I haven't had my coffee yet, I'll get back to you...

[Calpernia]

>>>>I understand why he did it, but I really don't want our side doing that kind of stuff. I want to be able to criticize the other side. Let's not be like them.

Prove to me that it was OUR side. I smell a publicity stunt.

OPINION

She isn't selling books like she needs to and needs to promote a movie. A big bad man spitting at her will get her press releases and an interview here and there in hopes of drawing out more people to the next signing.

IF this man spat in her face, why? Was he just a jerk? Probably. Was he a VET? If he was, the media would have made that the lead story as if every member of the MIL were evil.

I don't know, that is just my opinion that it was staged.
