Great point, JT. And you're right - it's beyond alot of people here.

That war is closing in on 40 years old. Fourty years.

A horrific and sad outcome, sure. And the wounds are still so close to the surface.

There have been dozens and dozens of great books written on the subject. Really great books. Covering both the situation on the ground, and the politics back in Washington.

If you were born in a cocoon, and raised by wolves, and your only outlet to the world was the AH BBS, it's quite understandable that you'd come to believe that the fiasco that was the Vietnam war was the result of some actress called Jane Fonda.

Really.

Vietnam? Jane Fonda this. Jane Fonda that. She's a biatch.

And Mike Moore is fat.

And Kerry is a coward.

And Universities are terrorist breeding grounds.

And the media are in on the conspiracy.

And freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose....

The lunatics have taken over the asylum, and they're winning.

Perhaps you might not get this comming from the land of the maple leaf and all but many people down here consider Fonda to be a traitor.
Now in another time even in this country she would have been tried and executed  for her actions.
Now we may not do that any longer for such actions but that does not mean we do not take the same dim view. Nor does it mean she will ever be forgiven or her actions. Nor does it mean they will ever be forgotten.

If it were up to me. She would have suffered the same fate as Philip Nolan

Her pic makes a good urinal target.
Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.

Pooh,

Nash has never worn a uniform of any public service or military. He is not likely to ever do so either. It's far easier to just throw stones and criticism than to do something actually productive.
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."

jane and the other war protesters thought they were ending the war, but the north Vietnamese govt tells us that they used the news film of the anti-war protests to keep the north Vietnamese people fighting a war they were losing.

so instead of ending the war the protesters actually prolonged the war, and adding tens of thousands to the dead on all sides.

the law of unintended consequences.


some people never learn from history, todays anti-war protesters are doing the same thing about Iraq, the insurgents keep blowing things up because they think the USA will go away if they blow up enough stuff.

The fools don't understand that if they stop blowing up stuff the US will go away.

Look the insurgents say,boosh's ratings are falling, set off more car bombs.

if you are against the war send a e-mail to the prez and congress, don't go on the 6 o'clock news with it.  As don Corleone said to his son " you don't talk family business in front of strangers."

:huh

You want her to lead a small expedition into Mexico, and be surrounded and killed?  

For treason?  

That is beyond odd.
