She is a good actress, and was a real looker in her day. I shall be sad to see her go.

It would be great if she got right with God first, but ego being what it is...

A good actress? Respectfully disagree, have you seen her forgettable performance in the forgettable Klute?

This Veteran of the Vietnam War (however never "boots down" in country) never wishes pain or suffering on anyone.

That said, if discomfort and hovering death happens to visit Hanoi Jane, I have little sympathy. I prefer to think instead of the great and brave people she hurt with her aid and abetting an enemy of our fine Nation.

If Fonda made a full apology, I haven't heard it. I once parsed what she said as something like being sorry she was photographed on the North Vietnamese artillery battery.

I and at least most of my fellow Vets will not miss her.

Yes she was in a few good movies and was easy on the eyes. Neither absolves her of her actions during the war. Hopefully maybe on her deathbed she may have something to relate to those now old vets.

I personally wish no cancer death sentence on anyone no matter how distasteful they are. Maybe she will be greeted in death by 58 thousand souls that could just give her an inkling the depth of what had to have plagued her since her actions then.
