Still Flogging Hanoi Jane: Americans Come Full-circle to Voluntary Totalitarianism

*explore brief interactions with Ken Rollins ( use fictitious name ). 
How this old saw about Fonda being a traitor during the visit she famously made to Hanoi during Vietnam War could STILL be an "issue" for ex-Serviceman completely eludes me. 
>pure & simple American Exceptionalism, the hyper-pseudo patriotism of the warrior culture?
>how could Fonda's poor judgement compare to Nixon's derailing of the first planned Peace Talks with North Vietnam, for his political gain, in terms of consequence(s)?  25,000 more American soldiers died because of Nixon's actions.  This is an act of treason of the highest magnitude:  but these ex-military guys are still running around whining about Jane Hanoi Fonda?
