Jane Fonda tells veterans boycotting her movie 'The Butler' to 'get a life'

 

 When Jane Fonda was cast as former First Lady Nancy Reagan in Lee Daniels’ forthcoming film “The Butler,” some Reagan fans were not pleased. Now, with the biographical due to hit theaters in October, a movement to boycott the movie is gaining some momentum.

Larry Reyes, a Navy veteran and founder of the “Boycott Hanoi Jane Playing Nancy Reagan” Facebook page has been particularly vocal about the casting decision, given Fonda’s past frolicking with the enemy during the Vietnam War.

“Growing up in a military family I heard my father and uncles talk about what Jane did, so from an early age I knew about her history with the war and how upset veterans were about it. Yet it amazed me that people just turned their backs and kept supporting her exercise videos and movies. I made a commitment early on not to support her projects,” Reyes told FOX411’s Pop Tarts column. “Then when I heard she was going to play such a well-liked and highly respected president’s wife, it got to me. They (the filmmakers) knew by picking Jane for the part they were going to stir up some stuff. I’m not a conservative or a liberal, I’m an American. And that was a slap in the face.”

This week, Fonda had a simple message for Reyes and the page's fans.

“Get a life."

    "Get a Life"?? She caused many to lose theirs. Shame on everyone associated with this traitor. I hope this movie loses millions. The kids nowadays don't know what went on, but we will never forget. Lost too many good friends in that war...

  4. I forgot. Don't forget that when she toured the Hanoi Hilton and got a message from a POW she handed it over to the captors and the POW was beaten to death... Blood still boiling.

    1. I have read that this wasn't true, but whether it was or not, she is still a traitor.
