Jane Fonda: I Will Go to My Grave With ‘Unforgivable Mistake’
03 Apr 2013 By Greg Richter

Quote:

I made one unforgivable mistake when I was in North Vietnam, and I will go to my grave with this,” Jane Fonda says on the Oprah Winfrey Network.

The actress and activist made an infamous trip to North Vietnam in 1972 where she was photographed singing with members of the North Vietnamese military as she sat on an anti-aircraft gun.

She was criticized then — and ever since — and says she understands the anger.

Fonda says she knew immediately she had made a mistake and has apologized repeatedly, both privately and publicly.

She told OWN program “Oprah’s Master Class” that the event happened on the last day of her visit. She was tired, she said, and didn’t want to attend.

“I don't know if I was set up or not,” she said. “I was an adult. I take responsibility for my actions.”

The soldiers sang a song and Fonda joined in with her “feeble Vietnamese.”

As everyone was laughing and singing, Fonda was led to a gun site, where she sat down.

“And I was laughing and clapping, and there were pictures taken.”

The photo was the least of her treasonous activities, as I explained on my blog.

We arrived in-country just a few months after that photo was taken. I made it home unscathed. Sonny Primm's wife was six months pregnant when he was killed. They can't hear your apology, Jane. All eight of their names are etched on a black granite wall in Washington, D.C. Maybe you can go there and try to apologize to them.

Lew...her abject TREASON needs to be asserted again and again and again...everytime some doting leftist-enabler like Winfrey affords her yet another platform from which she can attempt to rehabilitate or mitigate that same TREASON.

You said it so well Lew. Thanks for a great commentary.

BTW, congrats on the appropriate recognition afforded to your blog and the new look is terrific.

Thanks #1. I've been focusing more on local issues for some time, but can't pass up Fonda's antics.
