QuoteSo, if Hillary would have won would they have questioned her why her foundation has ties with Russia? It was the last president who told Putin to wait until after the election because then he, the president, can do more for him. And than there is the video of Biden bolstering about how they basically blackmailed the Ukraine to fire someone or they wouldn't get the money the US promised.
Such bigots and hateful people. Oh and btw they do not speak or represent me in any shape or form.

Is this you speaking, or did you forget to cite the source?

There would almost certainly have been tons of investigations into all of this, yes.

Everybody has "ties to Russia" if you extend the web of ties far enough.

Hey I just said Congress would have almost certainly investigated the hell out of Hillary, they promised this during the election. They would not have found anything, but they would have investigated. I mean they already did this during the Obama administration.

It's a post by my sister.

Unfortunately, many have forgotten and still countless others have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed not only the idea of our country, but specific men who served and sacrificed during the Vietnam War.

The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat. In 1968, the former Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a POW in Ho LoPrison, the "Hanoi Hilton."

Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American "peace activist" the "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.

He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and was dragged away. During the subsequent beating, he fell forward onto the camp commandant 's feet, which sent that officer berserk.

In 1978, the Air Force Colonel still suffered from double vision (which permanently ended his flying career) from the Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden baton.

From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan was in the 47FW/DO (F-4E's). He spent 6 years in the "Hanoi Hilton". . . The first three of which his family only knew he was "missing in action." His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too, got the cleaned-up, fed and clothed routine in preparation for a "peace delegation" visit.

They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world that they were alive and still survived. Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his Social Security Number on it, in the palm of his hand. When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and "Are you grateful for the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?" Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper.

She took them all without missing a beat. . . At the end of the line and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs, she turned to the officer in charge and handed him all the little pieces of paper...
Three men died from the subsequent beatings. Colonel Carrigan was almost number four but he survived, which is the only reason we know of her actions that day.

I was a civilian economic development adviser in Vietnam, and was captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Vietnam in 1968, and held prisoner for over 5 years.

I spent 27 months in solitary confinement; one year in a cage in Cambodia; and one year in a 'black box' in Hanoi. My North Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Banme Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian border. At one time, I weighed only about 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs.)

We were Jane Fonda's "war criminals."

When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political officer if I would be willing to meet with her. I said yes, for I wanted to tell her about the real treatment we POWs received. . . and how different it was from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by her as "humane and lenient."

Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky floor on my knees, with my arms outstretched with a large steel weight placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane.

I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda soon after I was released. I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on TV. She never did answer me.

These first-hand experiences do not exemplify someone who should be honored as part of "100 Years of Great Women." Lest we forget. . . "100 Years of Great Women" should never include a traitor whose hands are covered with the blood of so many patriots.

There are few things I have strong visceral reactions to, but Hanoi Jane's participation in blatant treason, is one of them. Please take the time to forward to as many people as you possibly can. It will eventually end up on her computer, and she needs to know that we will never forget.

Hanoi Jane is not guilty, your honor.  As our dear Leader said, war prisoners are losers and he himself, as an example for our nation said we should prefer those who are not captured.

When faced with capture, one must do the hedgehog and keep the last bullet for himself to avoid capture at all costs.  These are fine words, spoken by a very fine gentlement in some very fine time.

Therefore, the fault entirely lie with Mr Driscoll for not avoiding capture in the first place...

I have to hand it your family Syt, they really know how to hold grudges. I mean your sisters were probably not even born yet.

My "political" sisters were born in 1961 and 1963, respectively, but I think it's safe to say they didn't care about this until, say, 10, 15 years ago. ;)

My sister also commented on Great Thunberg's "hypocrisy" because she wears a raincoat and what are they made of? Plastic! Made from Petroleum!!! Also that the mentally ill girl might end up killing herself because she's so distraught over the lies her parents indoctrinated with re: climate change.

Man how brainwashed do you have to be to buy that nonsense? Christmas is everywhere and the only people who are offended by it are conservative religious people.

The War on Christmas is the religious rights favoritest war. They are not going to let the fact that it doesn't exist stop them from waging it.

Well according to Syt's sister it is called a Holiday tree...by somebody I guess.

I've never heard that term actually used. I guess I don't know any real liberals.  :hmm:

Interestingly, actual Christians have waged a "war" on the Christmas tree, erecting "Chrismon Trees" instead:
