“In 1972 'Hanoi' Jane Fonda applauded an NVA anti-aircraft gun crew during her trip to North Vietnam. These guns were used to shoot down American planes and contributed to the deaths of American Airmen.”

Heeeeeeeer's Jane:

She says that people are still upset over her "opposition" to the Vietnam war! Shocked

Surely she's not that dense or self-deluded? Confused

I'd still like to know where this massive effort was organized and who funded it because as near as I can tell, it was truly masterful - to the point of being magical.

This vast conspiracy (reminiscent of another one we've heard about!) was completely effective even while it remained completely invisible.

I don't usually hawk my own blog here, but I saw this yesterday and like many others did I'm sure, applauded QVC while blowing my stack at Hanoi's Jane's continued denial of her own culpability in bringing about the fall of South Vietnam.

Even left-leaning Snopes seems to have added to their comments on her activities,

OK, Lew, you talked me into it.

Dear QVC management,

Thank you for canceling the appearance of Jane Fonda on your program on July 16, 2011 (I believe that was the date). I'm one of the Air Force pilots Jane Fonda's North Vietnamese anti-aircraft comrades was shooting at in 1972 and 1973.

They managed to kill eight of my comrades in February of 1973. Sonny Primm's wife was six months pregnant when he was killed.

Memorial Program

If you would like to put a face with my message, here is a link to my poem and photograph.

The Promise Kept

The poem describes how my wife and I spent the year I was away flying combat missions. The ending of the poem is a dedication to all who did not return.

When I left the USA for South Vietnam in 1972, our son was two weeks old and our daughter was three years old. My wife sent an audio tape of our daughter reciting, from memory, the 23rd Psalm. I played it during a chapel service, and by the time she had finished, there wasn't a dry eye in the place. We spent our off duty hours accompanying Chaplains and missionaries visiting and rebuilding villages that had been ravaged by the Viet Cong, more of Jane Fonda's "freedom fighters". The Chaplains drove jeeps with "God Squad" on the front license plate. One missionary with whom we worked was the only survivor of a mission encampment in Laos that had been wiped out by the Communists, over 250 men, women, and children.

No, Jane, it wasn't some invisible conspiracy who protested your appearance on QVC to hawk your book and make more money through the very Capitalism you say you loathe, it was the ghosts of 58,178 valiant American soldiers, sailors, marines, and airmen whom you betrayed. Incidentally, I entered that number for the "Customer Number" in this contact form to make a point.
