'Hanoi Jane' Set to Play Nancy Reagan in New Film

Sometimes Hollywood casting directors must chuckle into their sleeves at the way their decisions drive conservatives to distraction. Case in point - this news flash concerning Oscar-winner Jane Fonda's new project: Jane Fonda is going to be playing Nancy Reagan in a new movie. Oh yes. According to Variety, the reviled-by-conservatives actress/activist has joined the cast of "The Butler," the new Lee Daniels drama about a White House servant (Forest Whitaker) whose career lasted from the Truman Administration to Ronald Reagan's. Daniels is also looking to Liam Neeson to play Lyndon Johnson and John Cusack to play Richard Nixon. Arch-liberals Fonda and Cusack playing a pair of major figures on the Right? Conservatives should stock up on antacids starting ... now.

[Wingy]

I’m sure it will be a BIG hit.

Jane Fonda totally unfit to play any part of Nancy Reagan.

WTF are these people thinking to cast that traitorous scumbag in that part.

[SAJ]

Another propaganda piece coming up. Who would have thought that, after the uniformly failed series of agitprop films about Iraq, et al., that even the brain-dead marginally human lefty film producer types would have gotten the mssg.

Am I wrong, or has the only profitable "film" for the agitprop types over the past 5 years been Cameron's little blue-skin cartoon?

[SevenofNine]

I don’t think she look like Nancy Reagan was Nancy petite Hanoi Jane too tall or too big LOL!

[dead]

John Cusack to play Richard Nixon

That's awesome. Who's playing Kissinger? Leonardo DiCaprio?

[Vision]

These liberals do things like this because, subconsciously, they know they are crazed losers and they're trying to beat back reality.

[jazusamo]

This is for Hanoi Jane and the Hollywood libs.

[easternsky]

Not FONDA JANE, old statement but never tire of saying it.

[tet68]

Hanoi Jane?
Isn’t she a little tall to be playing Nancy R?
What we are seeing here is the re-writing of our
history from a socialist viewpoint.
When they control your history, they control
your future.

Jane would be better off portraying a panic stricken
traitoress on seeing the gallows.

[Army Air Corps]

One day, that traitorous b***ch will become compost. I plan to “add nitrogen” to her grave.

[Jane Long]

Sad leftists can only make money portraying conservatives. If they make movies playing other leftists, no one goes to see them.

[MtBaldy]

“Jane Fonda totally unfit to play any part of Nancy Reagan.”

Nah, I might be ok with seeing her play the part Nancy Reagan flushed down the toilet every morning.

[stars & stripes forever]

In the words of the Gipper, “You’re no Nancy Reagan, Jane Fonda.”

[Average Al]

Why do they keep wasting their money on these cr*ppy movies?
Neither the libs nor the conservatives want to watch this drivel.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Disgusting

[EEGator]

Is Bill Maher playing the Pope?

[moovova]

Maybe Ted will go see it...but not too many other people.

I won’t.

[Pollster1]

Clever marketing decision - half the country would never watch a movie about Nancy Reagan, and the other half would never watch a movie with Jane Fonda. I’m glad to see Hollywood doing something this stupid.

[Bringbackthedraft]

Errr, where is the box office for the advance tickets to this movie? I wouldn’t miss it for anything, NOT!

[FryingPan101]

“Who’s playing Kissinger? Leonardo DiCaprio?”

LOL

This is obviously intentional.

It is clearly an attack on the Right by the puerile, talentless scum bags who run Hollywood.

[Tzimisce]

..and Michael Moore will play Ronald Reagan in this totally unbiased look at the workings of the Reagan White House....

[rlmorel]

Heheh, now that is funny to consider!

I must say...I was not a fan of DiCaprio for a long time, but after watching “The Aviator” and “The Departed”, I have to give the guy credit. He is pretty good.

Oprah Winfrey is in talks to play Allen’s wife,

[rlmorel]

No doubt...liberals are pretty stupid, but I think of them like a dimwit spouse who might lack real intelligence, but has some kind of primitive embryonic emotional intelligence enabling them to push the right buttons that will unerringly drive their partner mad.

That is how I view them.

Don’t think for a second they don’t do things like that, because liberals understand conservatives have genuine respect for symbols, and that attacking those symbols is a way of pushing buttons for them.

"... the new Lee Daniels drama about a White House servant (Forest Whitaker) whose career lasted from the Truman Administration to Ronald Reagan's..."

I am going to guess this is NOT one of the career White House employees who have stated that working when Republicans were in the White House was far superior to the years when Democrats worked there.

Gary Aldrich references it in his excellent book: "Unlimited Access".

Aid and Comfort: Jane Fonda in North Vietnam, Henry Mark Holzer and Erika Holzer, 2001--a killer indictment, with the twelve transcripts, and the rest of the lawyers' treason brief.

An American Traitor: Guilty as Charged By Henry Mark Holzer and Erika Holzer expanding the thesis, debunking the apologetics.

I had the pleasure to assist the authors in a modest way, and can attest to their thorough accumulation of the evidence.

Particulary relevant now as POTUS the islamo-commie crack-smoking closet queen assures Vladimir through mini-Vlad that he'll be "flexible" after the coup.

Treason never doth prosper. And we know the rest.

[rlmorel]

When charges of treason were not leveled against Jane Fonda, I knew then that short of actual spying, Nobody would ever be convicted of treason again.

[Liberty Wins]

Many thousands of patriotic vets will be walking the sidewalks.

[Tammy8]

Why would Ted go see it? He threw her out when she got too nutty even for him. It was about the time she started the group Pink Vaginas or something like that.

[rlmorel]

And great link in that post, by the way. Sadly, Americans don't care about Jane Fonda and what she stands for. This makes a difference to you, me, and a lot of others to whom it is important and symbolic.

The rest of them just go "Eh."

[rlmorel]

I’d like to see it.

[PhilDragoo]

This is why we think of that, "Those who forget the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them." Obama in Kenya in 2006 with Raila Odinga and the muslims burning Christians--rinse, repeat.

[moovova]

Why would Ted go see it?

He needs a good laugh?

[jazusamo]

But Fonda-ism is important because Americans who give aid and comfort to our enemies — Communists then, jihadists now — put at risk, not only our cherished institutions, but — in today’s world — our very existence.

That is a great article and the above last paragraph sums it up precisely! Hanoi Jane and those like her have been and are a clear and present danger to our Republic.

[tacticalogic]

She will portray Nancy Reagan. The public will get played.

[Yaelle]

O Hollywood, thou art so
Clever!

[PhilDragoo]

Gushy Americans elected Bomber Bill Ayers' dummy whose daughter's initials are M.A.O. and whose communication director Anita Dunne reveres Mao--behold a president who is in a position to surrender to the Russians in a way JFK was prevented from doing.

[TribalPrincess2U]

FILM FAIL

[x1stcav]

Does anyone watch this sh!t anymore?

I haven’t been in a theater since 2003 to see Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World..

[X-spurt]

That’s exactly why they did it! They’re giggling to each other right now.

Simple, join us in not pissin away our money on this sort of dribble. Only thing I’d pay to see Hanoi jane in would a be a real snuf-flick with her the subject.

[Broker]

This will kill Nancy. Revisionists unfortunately follow this axiom, “History is written by the winners, NOT the losers”.

[rlmorel]

Amazing, isn’t it?

Just amazing.

[Gene Eric]

Spiteful mofus.

[TYVets]

Jane Fonda is going to be playing Nancy Reagan

Hollywood can enjoy the chuckle today.

On the way to the bank the money bag will be much lighter tomorrow.

[tumblindice]

Juliann Moore and Tina Fey playing Sarah Palin. Meryl Streep playing Margaret Thatcher. Now, Hanoi Jane Fonda playing Nancy Reagan.
Dingbat lefty actresses playing real women, and the pretenders look almost life-like. I’ll take the real thing, thanks anyway Follywood.

[PGR88]

Who funds these movies??? No one goes to see them, and I’m sure they are all big time money-losers, even if the clowns like Fonda and Cusak work for free.
