He was in the Army and did a couple tours in Nam and hated her for the things she did on that trip over there that he considered to be pandering to the enemy at the very least and more like treasonous in his eyes.

The actress Jane Fonda has been honored as one of the “100 Women of the Century.” Unfortunately, many have forgotten and still countless others have never known how Fonda betrayed our country and the men who served and sacrificed during Vietnam. In July of 1972 Jane Fonda went to Hanoi, North Vietnam, for a two-week tour of the country. During the visit she posed for several pictures. One showed her applauding North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gunners. In another she was looking into the sights of an NVA anti-aircraft artillery launcher. She made several radio broadcasts in which she called American leaders “war criminals”. At a staged “press conference” she met with 8 American POWs who had been tortured until they agreed to meet with her, to deny that they were tortured, to denounce the American war effort, and to express shame at what they had done. The POWs were obviously under great strain and duress, but Jane took no notice of that. She went home to tell the world the the POWs assured her that they were in good health. Some of the American POWs were held in the “Hanoi Hilton” Prisoner of War camp or other prisons for up to 9 years. When some of them finally got to go home, they described the torture they had been subjected to. But Jane Fonda did not believe them, and publicly announced that America “should not hail the POWs as heroes, because they are hypocrites and liars.” She said the the POWs she met in Hanoi “were not men who had been tortured. These were not men who had been starved. These were not men who had been brainwashed.” She said that American POWs who claimed that they had been tortured “were exaggerating, probably for their own self-interest.” She also said, “Never in the history of the United States have POWs come home looking like football players. These football players are no more heroes than Custer was. They’re military careerists and professional killers … trying to make themselves look self-righteous, but they are war criminals according to law.” Jane Fonda did not go to Hanoi to try to bring about peace. She went there to actively show support for the North Vietnamese cause. She praised the North Vietnamese military, and urged the American “war criminal” soldiers to stop fighting. She advocated cutting off all American economic aid to South Vietnam, and publicly thanked the Soviets for providing assistance to the North Vietnamese. That’s why I despise Jane Fonda. She has since “apologized” a couple of times, but her apologies meant nothing.

In 2005, Michael A. Smith, a U.S. Navy veteran, was arrested for disorderly conduct in Kansas City, Missouri, after he spat chewing tobacco in Fonda's face during a book-signing event for her autobiography, My Life So Far. He told reporters that he "consider[ed] it a debt of honor", adding "she spit in our faces for 37 years. It was absolutely worth it. There are a lot of veterans who would love to do what I did."
