" Figuring. -- Ted Turner's new book called me today is a big best seller. Principles movements turner ever made business or personal was hooking up McCain on. You associate we Jane Fonda and now this fund is a very far left individual. And affairs of the heart. Aside. Finally anybody could be compatible with the Jane body or merit to over ten years unless you have and share some of the same world outlook you see what I'm saying you."
" Hi I'm not apologizing. Now. 44 -- political views I've come to the involved after a lot of careful thought the study of researcher involved. I I I consider myself -- a progressive not not a liberal."
" Fidel Castro do you admire the man. Yes. Now he is murdered people he's in prison people heard political prisoners now -- won't let his people use the Internet nobody can use that. And you admire a guy."
" But my certain things about him. He's trend a lot of doctors and they've got fell one of the best educational systems and in the developing world them all. You know. He's still popular with a lot of people down -- I -- is that Hillary he is a killer Asian guy that is never. To my knowledge that's never been been proven not mean he's articulated political per."
" There is a -- slaves people who don't see it the way he sees it commodities a dictatorship. And it is you admire him that why would you admire Mussolini. I mean war what's the difference Mussolini put people back to work there was short birdie educational system was far. It's not get this is what I don't understand."
" About it okay well. If you don't figure that referring Castro Mussolini you know that you know I I liken dobbs. I likened some aspects of fox news to the Nazis soul and you know it works both ways."
" Which he just admitted that needed that wasn't a very good thing to do and was an accurate. Hey listen doll by I didn't say I wanted to live in Cuba and I didn't say that job. That that that that I was buddy buddies with Fidel. Castro while I just said that I respect is certain things that he's done but we always we -- you respect the man. And I just don't I can't possibly -- the I could do that well of course not now. I ask this question through one of my producers to miss Fonda and I and I'm going to ask it to you because by reading your book it struck me."
" Me that the Vietnam experience. Change you I'm saying to myself you know and turner comes into Vietnam there are conservative guy pretty much traditional guy that changes he changes it. And now he's a very liberal guy so I asked ms. Fonda did it ever bother you. That after all your activism in getting America out of Vietnam which it subsequently did -- mid seventies. That's three million human beings -- slaughtered by the people you were lionized in the north Vietnamese and the Khmer Rouge Communist who would've been slaughtered if we stayed. And their stalls were stacked on top of one another and I never heard a word from you Jane Fonda and I never heard a word from Ted Turner. About that and that to me is a good question. Didn't you got me I didn't I didn't I think about it though it didn't make -- very much Charlotte didn't and you had a had a vehicle that you could have had the revisionist history is what I'm worried about here I think America is a noble nation I think we've made mistakes. I think we tried to have freedom. In Vietnam for the south Vietnamese unfortunately the government was corrupt I don't think that was a venal terrible thing to do I think who were trying to protect people there. Maybe I'm wrong. But afterward there's no doubt. Three million human beings were slaughtered Jane Fonda said not a war and to this day she blames America for everything and I think it's wrong. But you're not Jane Fonda and it's a pleasure to talk with you and on the -- last -- you can say whatever you want."
" Go. I'd like to law have this conversation at greater length about on global warming which I understand you you and I agree about we do and I'll Baghdad ridding the world of nuclear weapons looking forward not. Not backward we have a lot of fun and maybe in enlighten the audience."
" It's all right mr. turner we will definitely do that you liked the book I've just got to ask you I -- listen I think -- fascinating character. I really do -- that you were you are true I don't know maverick and a guy who's done an amazing amount with his life. And any book that tells me how that happened on the line want to wish you a Merry Christmas sir thanks for coming on programs and you."
