The only thing she regrets was that the publicity she got from her gun photo didn't work out as she had planned.
Once a traitor, always a traitor.
I hope she rots in the darkest depths of Hell.

More drivel and useless rhetoric from someone who should have been tried for treason many years ago.
If she were ablaze I wouldn't relieve myself on her to put out the fire.

Jane Fonda is still honored among us. I was at the Leatherneck Club in Las Vegas her sticker is proudly displayed in each urnial.
My favorite bumper sticker
Vietnam Vets are NOT
Fonda Jane.
She's been off my Xmas card list since 1968.

The traitorous slut gave a half-a##ed apology once before. That time they were attempting to film a movie on location in New England, but filming was being interrupted by demonstrating vets. This time, she has a book due to hit the bookstores in a few days.
| Quote: | Jane arranged to be interviewed by Barbara Walters on June 17, 1988 on 20/20. The fact that Barbara Walters was married to Merv Adelson, CEO of Lorimar Telepictures, the company that marketed Jane's workout tapes had nothing to do with the selection of Walters said Fonda's publicist Steve Rivers.16 years after her Hanoi tour, Jane Fonda appeared on 20/20 and was interviewed by Barbara Walters.
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 things that I said or did," Fonda said. "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." Behind the scenes, Jane was filming "Stanley and Iris" on location in a number of New England towns. The production efforts on the movie were being severely disrupted by protesting Vietnam veterans and thus causing serious problems in the making of the film.
By the timing of the apology and by the primary reference to the New England Veterans, was this a truly heart-felt apology or just another acting scene from the film to help the production efforts

She regrets sitting at an enemy anti-aircraft gun and that's all? I guess calling returning POWs liars and hypocrites still makes her puff out with pride?
Like I said elsewhere, my bumper sticker remains;
I'LL FORGIVE JANE FONDA
WHEN THE JEWS FORGIVE HITLER

To be kind, Tom chemically kidnapped her mind and body. She may have turned out to be a reasonable person, but, she did not.
By now, she has had time to dry out and re-evaluate her actions and learn a bit about our history and the role our Military has in our survival.
She could donate all her profits to the Vietnam Veterans she disrespected and our Country she betrayed.

If Jane Fonda wants forgiveness, she can go to a priest. If she just wants to sleep better at night, she can take a Valium.
In either case she will get the same consideration from me that she gave all Viet Nam vets when she gave aid and comfort to the enemy.

Her father even hated her for what she did.
