'Hanoi Jane' Fonda Cast as Nancy Reagan for Movie

Some political moves are just too hard to forget.

Jane Fonda betrayed American POW's in Vietnam.

(WASHINGTON DC) - We live in an age of great irony. Allegiances increasingly change; nations once considered allies are viciously attacked; Americans rush to war at the urge of their government's call, and controversy brings celebrities to politics.

When the wars fade from political popularity, the Veterans come home to a different world, yet those celebrities somehow continue on without the impacts that affect those who serve.

While some celebrities have genuine motives and accomplishments in battling war and seeking peace, Jane Fonda's sincerity is measured in her complete and total absorption by yuppie values; she married one of the richest men alive and lost her passion for ending war as almost a passing interest, and now she is going to play Nancy Reagan?

In the NewsMax.com report below by Henry J. Reske, we see that the new career direction for this Vietnam War bomb straddler- who is said to have turned a note from an American POW into his Communist North Vietnamese captors, will be a very different role for Fonda. There are just some lines in this world that a person does not cross. Loyalty to a countryman in captivity is not the same as supporting the war, Fonda lost millions forever with that move, she lost me.

In what can be described only as a nontraditional casting, Jane Fonda has been picked to play Nancy Reagan in a new film about a White House butler whose 34-year career spanned the presidencies of Harry Truman and Ronald Reagan. Variety reports that director Lee Daniels has picked the woman known as Hanoi Jane for her activism during the Vietnam War to portray Mrs. Reagan in the film “The Butler.” The movie is based on a story by Washington Post reporter Wil Haygood, who chronicled the life of Eugene Allen, a butler who started at the White House in 1952 and retired in 1986. Forest Whitaker is reported to be close to finalizing a deal to portray Allen, and Oprah Winfrey is in talks to play his wife, according to Variety. Variety reports that no cast deals are in place yet, but Daniels is finalizing financing for the film, which may start production in the summer.
