Charleton Heston vs. Hanoi Jane

[Monkeyleg]

A couple of interesting, if diametrically opposed, quotes came in email today.

Here's a short letter that Heston wrote to the troops:
"Rest assured that while pretend-patriots talk of supporting you, even as
they condemn your noble cause, an unwavering vast majority of Americans
share and take pride in your mission. You represent all that is good and
right about America and are the true face of American patriotism. You walk
in those same righteous footsteps of all those patriots who, before you,
fought to preserve liberty for all. Our prayers and our personal gratitude
are with you and your families. May God Bless You."

- Letter from actor Charlton Heston to the troops serving in the Iraq war


And here's some comments that Hanoi Jane made in Canada:

"Americans are 'ignorant' and inferior to Canadians, Jane Fonda told an
audience Tuesday in Vancouver, British Columbia. . . . 'I don't know if a
country where the people are so ignorant of reality and of history, if you
can call that a free world,' Miss Fonda told a cheering, sold-out crowd at
the Orpheum Theatre."

Hanoi Jane

Once a traitor, always a traitor I guess...

 

[Standing Wolf]

Charlton Heston is my other president!

 

[BogBabe]

Directly contrary to what Hanoi Jane meant, I agree that too many Americans are ignorant of reality and of history.

REVOKE HANOI JANE'S U.S. CITIZENSHIP-

SEND HER TO FRANCE, RUSSIA, OR GERMANY!

"...too many Americans are ignorant of reality and of history."

However, it does not follow, necessarily, that we are therefore wrong.

Buy Heston a beer, and deport Janeypoo. If she loves those other Eurotrash nations, she really ought to join them. Or maybe she just enjoys looking smart around the ignorant Americans.
