    Jane Fonda to Oppose Iraq War on Bus Tour

    Too bad she won't take the tour to Anbar Province . . .
    Of course, pictures with her fingers on a remote IED detonation switch won't help book sales!

    Jane Fonda to Oppose Iraq War on Bus Tour
    Jul 25, 9:04 AM (ET)


    SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - Actress and activist Jane Fonda says she intends to take a cross-country bus tour to call for an end to U.S. military operations in Iraq.

    "I can't go into any detail except to say that it's going to be pretty exciting," she said.

    Fonda said her anti-war tour in March will use a bus that runs on "vegetable oil." She will be joined by families of Iraq war veterans and her daughter.

    They plan to return to the Santa Fe area, where she was promoting her book, "My Life So Far" on Saturday.

    Prompted by a question from the audience, Fonda said war veterans that she has met on a nationwide book tour have encouraged her to break her silence on the Iraq war.

    "I've decided I'm coming out," she said.

    Hundreds of people in the audience cheered loudly when Fonda announced her intentions to join the anti-Iraq war movement.

    "I have not taken a stand on any war since Vietnam," she said. "I carry a lot of baggage from that."

    Fonda incited controversy in July 1972 when she was photographed sitting on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun while on a tour of the country to drum up support to end the war.

    It is a pity the peace love and understanding of communism bus won't be rolling through Falluja...it'd certainly draw the attention of IED operators.

    Maybe she should have learned her lesson then...

    He may even miscalculate and slide these weapons off to terrorist groups to invite them to be a surrogate to use them against the United States. It’s the miscalculation that poses the greatest threat-John Kerry

    Wow. A Vietnam and Iraq war protester, and she has a bus that runs on vegetable oil. A stereotype if I've ever seen one.

    It's because they haven't perfected the "flower power" engine yet.

    Ethanol. It's made from corn. It's not a bad idea, it's just been co-opted by shitheads like Fonda.

    What's so exciting about sitting in a bus for 3,000 miles?
    Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

    When I first saw this news flash, I got a flashback to the picture of her sitting at the NVA anti-aircraft gun in Hanoi, while a short distance away af the Hanoi Hilton, American POW's were being mistreated by their captors.
    Sometimes American's are a bit too forgiving of traitors. She should have been made to answer for her actions!
