Thread Name: Hanoi Jane - any songs?
Subject: RE: Hanoi Jane - any songs?
Why do they engender such intense anger?????? Oh, maybe had you been in combat at the time, buried friends, fought to stay alive, witnessed the horror of war, and so on, you wouldn't ask the question.

I reject most of what is written about Jane Fonda as untrue. The story about her giving up POW's is completely false. About the only part of the story that is true is that she did go to North Vietnam and pose for the picture seated on a gun emplacement with a helmet.

She did a very foolish thing, and I get angry everytime I see the picture, but we need not embellish it. The truth is bad enough.

And no, I don't know any songs.
