Don't like Snopes because it disproves you? Try Factcheck.org... you'll get equal treatment there.

OK... will janefonda.com work for you? The Truth About My Trip To Hanoi

In my anger at the torture story that was being allowed to spread, at how the entire situation was being manipulated, I made a mistake I deeply regret. I said that the POWs claiming torture were liars, hypocrites, and pawns.

I said, “I’m quite sure that there were incidents of torture…but the pilots who are saying it was the policy of the Vietnamese and that it was systematic, I believe that’s a lie.”


You really are a fricking idiot.

love how these bitches born with a silver spoon in their mouths who were affluent and famous from birth...educated in liberal schools and given dope by their parents at 12 years old all think communism is cool. I doubt her and her privileged family would be willing to give their fortune away and live like paupers. What a dumb dumb person.

So many of those "icons" from the 60s were complete hypocrites. Lennon sang about "no possessions" but was famously extravagant and wasteful with money and possessions. When teased about it by a former assistant his reply "It's only a bloody song".

bullshite. She only commented on the POWs she had met, and speaking out against the war helped to end it and insure that there weren't even more POWs.


If you believe this you are dumber than everyone claims you are. What ended the war was the POS McNamara and LBJ having no plan what so ever to win the war.

“I would like to say something, not just to Vietnam veterans in New England, but to men who were in Vietnam, who I hurt, or whose pain I caused to deepen because of the things that I said or did. I was trying to help end the killing and the war, but there were times when I was thoughtless and careless about it and I’m…very sorry that I hurt them. And I want to apologize to them and their families.”


Not good enough for you, right? Again, this thread is about letting go of the lies, not about excusing everything Jane Fonda said or did in Vietnam. She was correct to try to end a war that caused POWs, and she's correct to apologize for things she should not have said.

Well, I think that about does it for this thread, boys.

Let's hit the bar.

FIFY

Nixon inherited it. And eventually ended it.

Continue with your revisionist history.

But the smear of Jane Fonda should end.... now.


She gave aid and comfort to the enemy while our young men were in harm's way.

That is unforgivable and not a smear.

Thank you. Please drive through.

You can hang a TON of shite on Nixon, but not Vietnam.

Kennedy (lesser) and LBJ (greater), along with your boy McNamara - Democrats all - own that one.
