[juno jones]

2. lulz

;)

[Fleshdancer]

3. Love or hate him, no one is going to pwn Ventura on this subject

Elizabeth is an idiot for attempting to debate him on this.

[roguevalley]

20. how can you argue with someone who was waterboarded? that

stupid dame, I wish she would go away.

[Iris]

4. the comments are priceless

[liberalmuse]

5. That made my morning.

WTG, Jesse!

[Mudoria]

6. The "Body" pwned her ass. Badly...

[Spazito]

7. Wow! Well done Mr. Ventura! n/t

[BanzaiBonnie]

8. I don't agree with Ventura about plenty

But it was a beauty of a take down of Hasselbeck.

There are areas where I DO agree with Ventura. I appreciate that he's a practical person.

[seabeyond]

i am with you. dont agree with all, but he tries, really tries to set in honest

say it like it is and not quibble.

i can respect the man

[liberalhistorian]

42. He's particularly brutal in his comments against Coleman-

(who was the repub candidate against him in the '98 governor's race), calling him a hypocritical liar, among the more polite comments. I certainly don't always agree with him either, but he does have a very refreshing tendency to not be afraid to speak his mind.

[stewert]

9. And....................

I hear that Jesse Ventura is gonna be on Hannity tonight, while I can barely stand to watch O'Reilly, let alone Hannity, I think I'll watch Hannity tonight to see what he has to say to Ventura.

[tsuki]

11. I wonder if Hannity will call Ventura a coward again? nt

[Champion Jack]

12. I hope Ventura asks lil'sean when he's gonna be waterboarded

[Prophet 451]

23. Oh please Lord!

Please, if I've ever done anything right in my entire life, PLEASE let Hannity call the Body a coward to his face!

[damonm]

16. ZOMG!

THAT is gonna be a smackdown for the ages...

[gratuitous]

21. They're locking off the elevators at Fox right now

And then Sean can safely smirk at the camera and say that Ventura was detained or delayed or declined to appear, and then Sean will do what he does best: Argue with inanimate objects and strut away preening.

[Cha]

32. Good for Ventura..I'm sure

he can take care of the source of hasselbeck's insane points.

[rcrush]

10. Jesse is a great guy.

I would love to have the chance to have voted for him.

[dmr]

13. Prosecute Obama for the killing of Somalia pirates?

Good grief ...

[shadowknows69]

41. Preview of the next talking point maybe?

"Obama had three young pirates killed and it wasn't even a threat to our national security"


Fuck, I probably shouldn't have given them any ideas. THIS STATEMENT IS COPYRIGHTED FOX!!! I BETTER NOT HEAR IT ON HANNITY!!

[keith the dem]

14. WOW...You never know where the the voice of justice and

righteousness will come. Ventura was a lousy governor and probably still goofy on lots of issues....But he has the machismo viewpoint that shines light on how hollow and cowardly torture is. He puts it into terms that the less educated or people who do not closely follow the news will understand. who would have thought that an ex-professional wrestler may be able to recapture the soul of our nation? (Not me)

[lunatica]

19. In all fairness he's more than an ex-wrestler

He was in the Special Forces (A Navy Seal I believe) and he's been an actor in movies. There's much more to him than just mindless brawn. I have always respected him just because he's honest about his policies. Politics didn't corrupt him at all. He is what he says he is.

[Prophet 451]

24. Mildly offended by the implication there

Quite a lot of us have brains in our heads, y'know.

[keith the dem]

27. Didn't mean to offend

Sometimes the most intelligent message is one that is clear, direct and can can be understood by most people. Ventura has got it.

[Prophet 451]

30. Agreed

Sorry, I might be overly sensitive. I'm just used to the assumption that all of us who wrestled were morons. Jesse has the gift of both honesty and not caring who he offends.

[XOKCowboy]

15. What about Pelosi? BWAAAK What about Pelosi? BWAAAK Polly wanna cracker BWAAAK

I wonder how much she gets paid by the RNC to parrot their talking points.

Way to go Jesse. That's speaking truth with power!

[Initech]

17. I'm surprised that argument didn't end with a body slam.

:rofl:

[Scout]

18. loved it!

hasseltwit ... what a ... well ... twit.

:rofl:

[ms liberty]

22. Oh my. I enjoyed that way too much! K&R n/t

[Prophet 451]

25. Dammit Body

Why'd you have to have such kooky personal views and libertarian leanings? It's so incredibly rare to see a politician (and I believe Jesse was exactly the same in office) tell you what he thinks straight up.

[Thegonagle]

26. I loved, loved, Jesse's comments on this. Way to go, Jesse!

I live in MN, and remember when he was governor. He could speak very passionately on any given issue, much like he was doing on The View. He was often wrong, which sometimes made him look like an idiot, but when he was right (like he is today), he was untouchable.

I didn't vote for him (he was third party; I voted for the Dem), but I would have if he had run for a second term. He sure would have been better than Timmy "The Right Wing Tool" Pawlenty.

[JonLP24]

28. I don't know alot about Jesse's political positions

But I have yet to hear him say something I disagree with. Especially his calls to end the drug war.

[Thegonagle]

38. He was actually pretty conservative, but had a lot of priorities in the right place.

He was all about fiscal conservatism (tax cuts and all that), but things that were good investments into the future, even investments with unquantifiable returns like good education, or the Twin Cities area's first light rail line, were largely green-lighted.

He was also a social libertarian, so Minnesotans with our live-and-let-live culture liked that.

The things that people most liked about him was that he didn't let politics get in the way of common sense, he'd call BS when he heard it, and he never minced words.

[JonLP24]

39. That is the feel I got from him re common sense

His arguments seem to be of a common sense point-of-view. As of late he has made one of the best arguments regarding torture and the drug war and the way he phased his arguments were of course common sense. I'm willing to bet he was a better governor then Pawlenty but probaly not better then the liberal politicians in MN.

[underpants]

29. I complete agree with Jesse

the answer to the question of "why don't we?" (waterboarding by the police) is that they use INTERROGATION and it works

[Cha]

31. All the programmed hannity points

like she's a freakin' robotic Manchurian candidate for verbage.

[earth mom]

33. That was an awesome rethuglican a$$ kicking!

Loved it! :evilgrin:

[ThomWV]

34. Every one of us should respond to every right wing idiot we encounter in the same way

Don't put up with their bullshit.

[G_j]

44. I hear ya!

:applause:

[SalviaBlue]

35. Thanks for posting ...

In the comments at youtube:

"Ridiculous logic of rewording torture into enhanced interrogation.
If Rape was reworded to "non compliant sexual gratification" would it be legal? "

That's a keeper.

[Sydnie]

36. And she's still breeding!

Can she have an independent thought on her own at all?

Barbara ... curb your dog please!

[Senator]

37. K&R

[CrawlingChaos]

40. OMFG that was sweet

Even though a potted plant could win an argument with that idiot Hassel'tard, still, that was beautiful.

I'm becoming quite a fan of Jesse, I must say.

[Jeanette in FL]

43. Damn, that was great tv

Thanks for posting this.

Elisabeth is so deluded, she actually believes her right wing talking points.

[AwakeAtLast]

45. She even tried to equate torture to Obama making the Somali pirate call

She is nuts if she thinks the two are similar! :crazy:
