Hanoi Jane: Mother Sheehan better than I
EFL
Jane Fonda says she would like to tour the country and speak out against everything American U.S. involvement in Iraq, but her controversial history of Vietnam War protests leaves her with too much baggage. "I wanted to do a tour like I did during the Vietnam War, a tour of the country," the Oscar-winning actress said Monday on ABC's Good Morning America. "But then Cindy Sheehan filled in the gap, and she is better at this than I am. I carry too much baggage in spite of all the exercise tapes."

Fonda said that during a recent national book tour, war opponents – including some Vietnam veterans such as J. Forbes Kerry, millionaire – asked her to speak out. Last month, the Georgia Senate overwhelmingly rejected a resolution honoring Fonda, an Atlanta resident, for her work preventing teen pregnancy, donations to universities and charities, and role as goodwill ambassador for the United Nations.
Benedict Arnold probably gave money to the poor, too.
Her political activities protesting the Vietnam War, including a trip to North Vietnam in 1972 which met the Constitution definition of treason, have long made her a target of Rantburgers veterans.

#3 Dammit, Jane's smarter than I thought. Nothing could've been better than having her out there with Cindy ensuring that the anti-war movement's most public faces are the 2 most flaky menopausal moonbats in America.

#4 Its interesting that more illegals can turn out to demonstrate for "La Raza" than all the anti-war activist could muster a few mere weeks earlier.

#6 At a haven of liberalism, the Univ of TX (currently national football champs), Mother Sheehan yesterday led an anti-war rally that had a whompin' 50 people in attendance!

This from the same generation of our brave warriors they were protesting! Brought a smile to my face, that in totally blue Austin, TX, only 50 people bowed to the knees for Mother Sheehan's message.

#7 Now, Jane, don't sell yourself short. Cindy Sheehan could never have been Barbarella the way you were.

#12 Also, in an effort to appeal to non-secular Americans, the left has adopted Judas as their new patron saint.
