1 I learned this recently: After the Vietnam War was over, word leaked out that Pol Pot and North Vietnamese were butchering people in Cambodia and South Vietnam. Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden spent mega-bucks, time and effort in a disinformation campaign saying that the news of mass executions was right-wing propaganda. They even worked to stop any humanitarian aid from going to those countries. They stated that Pol Pot and Ho Chi Min were wise and gentle leaders and the people in those countries were well looked after. Their campaign worked. No country came to the aid of the people of Cambodia and South Vietnam. Years later, it was confirmed that 1,500,000 people were executed in Cambodia and South Vietnam. Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden said nothing. No regrets, no apologies. How does that woman sleep at nights?

2 Ambien? She's vacuous. Lucky for her she was born to Henry Fonda and had a pretty good unit. Unlucky for all of us, especially the Cambodians and Vietnamese who were slaughtered.

3 Growing up my father wouldn't let us kids watch any movies or shows that she was in. To this day he still won't watch anything himself that has her in it. Try and bring up her name and it's a sure way of getting him pissed off for the rest of the day. She really should have been tried for treason. Maybe they coluldn't prove it in the end but the effort to prosecute her should have been made none-the-less.

4 Hey Jake, "No country came to the aid of the people of Cambodia and South Vietnam." I think Jane came to the aid of the people of North Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos during their butchering What's the problem?

5 I can't wait until she's pushing up daisys in LA somewhere. I'll stop at least once a year to water her grave.

6 I've always liked this post from a HogOnIce commenter known as Rurik....... [The North Vietnamese began infiltrating their troops and weapons into South Vietnam in May 1959, using the specially organized "Unit 559". The Ho Chi Minh Trail ran through Laos and Cambodia to reach South Vietnam. For years, until The spring of 1970, the North Vietnamese used western Cambodia as a base to support their operations in South Vietnam. The Cambodian leader Prince Norodom Sihanouk was intimidated by the stronger communists and took a fence-sitting position of turning a blind eye to their presence, while also agreeing to permit US airstrikes in the Vietnamese controlled areas of his country - so long as they remained secret. During 1970, the Cambodian army lost its patience and overthrew the weak Sihanouk and moved against the communists. At about the same time, the US Army sent troops into western Cambodia to seize the North Vietnamese sanctuaries.(See S.L.A. Marshal's "West To Cambodia"). This was a crucial blow which brought North Vietnamese offensive action in SVN almost to a standstill for two years. Everyone on the ground in SVN at the time noticed the change immediately (I was in SVN at that time, working for part of my tour with Vietnamese including a former VC who had changed sides). IMO the Cambodian incursion was one fo the best moves we made; had Johnson done it in 1965, the war probably would have been over by 1967. After our incursion the Cambodians fought till 1975 when Congress cut off their ammunition and fuel supply, as they did with the Vietnamese. Sidney Schanberg and his friends actively helped the communists with their propaganda offensives, and proclaimed that the victory of communism would mean peace and prosperity for the region. As for the Khmer Rouge, they were a particularly nasty Maoist cult who wanted to return society to a pristine state of equalitarian nature. This is why they shot people with glasses or other prostheses, and drove everyone out of the cities. (You might see a foreshadow of our own late environmentalist fanatics here). Blaming Nixon & Ford for the Cambodian Genocide is no different from blaming the Holocaust on Churchill and Roosevelt. If anyone is to be blamed, it would be all those Americans who opposed the US effort in Vietnam. But when people start to get an uneasy conscience, they create some bizarre rationalizations.]

7 At some point, people's youthful mistakes have to be passed over, and their adult life taken into perspective. She has admitted her error and apologized more than once, so those who have passed over many of George Bush's foibles ought to reconsider.

8 After reading the other comments, it seems many people get themselves spin-doctored on propaganda blogs. I'd like to see factual confirmation on the amount of money and disinformation that Jane and Tom provided and when. "This is why they shot people with glasses or other prostheses, and drove everyone out of the cities. (You might see a foreshadow of our own late environmentalist fanatics here)" This is the most bizarre statement I've seen all year. A typical environmentalist would say the best place for a person is in a city or in a rural area on a farm.

9 Hey Will... have one of your family/friends murdered for the sake of a lying Jane Fonda and ask yourself how forgiving you'd be. Guess what Hollywood? This may come as a shock but since most of your stupid asses never even attended a college course I think it's fair to say that your opinion and subsequent actions mean didly squat... the only thing that sucks is the 'star power' idiots like Fonda acquire. STFU... go to Iraq. Go to Afghanistan. I promise you will see differently than what the 6pm news puts out each night. -From a concerned soldier.
