VOL. XXIV, NO. 3
DECEMBER 2, 1982
Today's go-getters
try every angle
try every angle
Like many of the political minded people in this world, I watched the election returns on November 2 and 3. I was shocked to find out that Governor Thompson apparently won by less than 5,000 votes. That's about the number of people who attend an indoor soccer game.
I wonder if the five thousand people who could have made the difference fully realize their mistake in failing to vote. By not casting their ballots, voters are showing us just how lazy people have become.
What our world needs are more gogetters; people like Dwight D. Eisenhower, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy or actors and actresses like Robert Conrad, Mike Farrell, Joan Baez, Jane Fonda and Ronald Reagan.
Jane Fonda, now there's a go‑getter that confuses me. She's the actress that caused all of the who‑ha during the Vietnam War by encouraging young men to resist the draft. Now here's an actress who is into politics, has two books on the best seller list, and now as a result of all this action has money to burn.
How could the daughter of a rich and famous Hollywood actor get off on the wrong foot? She got started right by being born to Mr. Henry Fonda, but during Vietnam she became a radical. She went to Indo‑China to encourage all of our Red‑blooded American fighting boys to defect to Switzerland. A real American this Fonda woman.
When she came back to the U.S. from Vietnam, there were people who believed that the government shouldn't let her back into the country because of her protest in Vietnam. How did she react? She acted as if nothing ever had happened! She simply went back to making movies. That's a fine slap in the face to Uncle Sam.
How would you like to be a United States Army defector living in Switzerland, sitting in a Swiss movie theatre, and see none other than Ms. Anti‑Establishment herself, Jane Fonda, on the screen! Now she's back in the U.S. taking in big royalty checks from movies and you're stuck eating Swiss cheese the rest of your life.
More recently, I find that both of her books are on the ten‑best seller list. And, get this, neither of them have anything to do with Vietnam! One wonders why she even went there? Indo‑China seems like an awfully long way to go for carry‑out Chinese Food.

Both of her new books are on exercise and are netting her big bucks from the obese housewives of America. Let's face it, Jane Fonda is depriving America's youth of a proper home life. Mother's are spending their time in exercise classes instead of taking care of their children. These housewives should bring their kids to the classes along with them so that they and their kids could lose a few pounds.
Mother's are also spending their money on exercise books instead of giving it to their children to spend on useful things like school lunches or Pac‑man.
But it doesn't stop here. Besides having two books, she now has Jane Fonda exercise record albums, tapes (cassette and 8‑track), video tapes. Next thing she'll do is come around to your house, lock the kids in the broom closet and take away Mom to some Fat‑Farm in Arkansas.
This woman just doesn't quit! I think she really hates American youngsters. First she attacks the U.S. involvement in Vietnam, then she goes straight to the youth of America and rips apart their precious home lives! This woman is sick.
After she gets done milking the housewives of America, she spends the money on her husband, Tom Haden, and his political campaign. I wish she'd make up her mind as to what she wants to do with her life. First she wants to protest Vietnam, then she wants to deprive Americas' youth, and now she's back into the political scene. Is this a ploy to build up her husband's financial reserves before she dies of stress and over exercising? This woman is more confusing than a Jamie Lee Curtis horror movie and a Maine West morning announcement put together.
Not even a year after her father is dead, she's off gallivanting all over the State of California like, Linda Ronstadt once did, in a sweatsuit that's ten sizes too small, and a pair of leg warmers. This is an example of how mixed‑up this woman is. She wears a sweatsuit that's too small, then she complains that her legs are cold, so she puts on a pair of leg warmers. She realizes that her sweatsuit is too small but she can't figure out why she's so cold? Frankly, I think that she should put the leg warmers over her head and warm up her frostbitten brain.
I'm anxiously awaiting one of her many television specials that should come out, after her next decisive political move, like Exercise the Indo-China Way, the Jane Fonda Telethon for Obese Americans, or Politics and Exercise Do Mix.
So take a tip from Jane Fonda, do something absurd with your life. You'll probably make a lot of money.
