maybe this guy is outspoken ,,,thus he isn't getting promoted because his commanding officers ' reputation is a stake....lots of politics in the military and MY workplace for the same reason
Lol as soon as he says its more dangerous to start unnecessary wars with Iran CNN experience "technical difficulties" fuck main stream media an cnn, Good bless you Jesse Thorsen
Why are the american people letting this kind of shit happen in their country? freedom my ass, this empire will fall brutally. i suggest you all remove the dicks out of your asses and demand your rights, and demand an end to ill willed corrupt scumbags grip on your country, it will lead to our worlds demise. seriously people need to realize this now, your country is already a police state and you all know it. secret arrests are already being made in your country, and you gonna stand by and watch
@ef1100 It's against the military code of justice for reserve military personnel to speak or express bias political opinions for campaigns, speeches, etc while in uniform, or representing the military. This law is meant to keep the military from using it's power to sway the public towards one candidate. In this case, it's not like a MacArthur trying to overthrow Truman, but it is just another sacrifice our troops make (their own personal freedom) to serve our country.
@michaelsmith295 I have been in over 16 years and that is one of the first things you are taught. And if he is only a Cpl. after 10 years in the Army he probably has some other issues going on also.
@michaelsmith295 , considering everyone serving post-9-11 has fought & killed in illegal wars & takes orders from satanic NWO criminals, I don't think this is even close in comparison of breaking laws. Soldiers swear to "protect the Constitution from enemies, foreign &domestic'. He is!
A mafia 'la muerte' blood oath when you're killing just so Bush & his royal cousins can collect billions in afghan heroin, Iraqi oil, & control the huge aquifer of Libyas Manmade River Project.
@chromelung4 "Illegal wars" and "NWO criminals", that much I can agree with you on. And by all means, the people in Washington DC right now are the domestic enemies of our country, almost as much as the growingly corrupt (not evil per se, but just ignorant) people. But I think instead of breaking laws even more, we should be concentrating on fixing laws, and bringing back the Constitution. Even if the sole way was by revolution, there are still ways to legally do that (the DoI).
@ef1100 Military personnel of the United States are not entitled to political opinions while in uniform, or to imply that their opinion is the official stance of the United States military.
What this soldier is doing is illegal. It is a violation of the UCMJ to participate in political rallies in uniform, or to specifically endorse a particular candidate.
Another soldier speaking the truth ,and the Corp. media and establishment hate him for speaking the truth . they can't stand the thought of all the profit they will lose , ending the wars . they can't live off the blood of our soldiers anymore . protecting there interest. This soldier shows how patriotic our troops are . they need someone who represents them too after all there putting their life on the line, and they want to know its for the right reason,and there President Stands for them to.
CNN and FOX will f%$#k up Ron Paul whats wrong with you people he has no chance, truth has no chance, America is bought ,bundled, and sold with Goldman Sachs at the helm with congress and senate as its crew. I promise he has no chance America does not deserve him as sad as that is to say. But there is always hope if we get off are asses.
So much for media integrity.. connection just fails. very sad..very sad CNN... these are the guys who were playing up Obama's every sound bite...why be so biased against a guy even if you don't like him
All of these wars and all of the Media manipulation on foreign policy is about Pushing Israel's agenda
Look at the interviewer herself. Jewish lady with a white-name and blonde hair pretending to be impartial. She wrote 3 books about Islam and the middle-east (negative ofcourse) before working with CNN
The host of the show? Wolf-Blitzer Jewish too
It's all one big zionist machine. Get the US to kill for Israel
@USoSilly2Me he is the only candidate that makes sense in terms of the war on drugs, war on terror and his overall foreign policy, and how he will be the protector of the constitution which this country was founded on. "saving jews in WW2 was a bad idea" really? you think Ron Paul wanted the Jews to be killed? i think that Ron Paul would object to any attempt to genocide. but its not americas place to interfere on other nations' politics such as the development of israel.
my brother jesse thorsen is a liar. he did less then one tour. he was never ative duty. he cheats on his wife. he is an idiot. he is a piece of shit. courtmartial his ass. he does drugs. he lie's about anything and everything.
see my lates video to see how ABC zionist news made Ron Paul look 20 inches shorter than Romney in a Mock Debate picture Before tonights debate. Shows what Lying Zionist media Does to maniuplate the vote and the Public Minds.
CNN is fucking lying about this on their website claiming his actions were a violation of the Hatch Act which precludes federal civil servants from partisan political activity... NOT MOTHERFUCKING SOLDIERS. the DOD has it's own policy against it, but they're trying to frame this as Paul knowingly violating the law to make him look like a hypocrite. FUCK YOU, CNN!
@iwishiweregay Soldiers are permitted to vote, participate in some political activities and express opinions about candidates as long as they are not in uniform and speaking in an official capacity.
@USoSilly2Me ok, retard. i explicitly mentioned the DOD directive prohibiting soldiers from doing this. learn to fucking read. the hatch act does not apply to them. there is no LAW, only a DOD policy. bunk. who is stupid? stfu, asshole.

"9/11 Remember.................................how CIA and Mossad carried out this false flag and how the media used it to demonize arabs, take way the civil liberties from the people, launch illegal wars and bankrupt the country."
One could argue, that if we are in 2 wars (1 now since Iraq ended in December) neither approved by Congress in violation of our constitution, then this soldier was only defending America and the constitution from threats not only foreign but domestic as well. The domestic threats have been the last 2 administrations.
@LILVOKA The current commander in chief disrespects our soldiers & our country when he turns his back on the Constitution (pro-NDAA/pro-Patriot Act/pro-Illegal wars/assassinating American citizens) he swore to upheld on Inauguration day - and creates his own Martial Laws instead.
The President is not in trouble for violating that time & time & time again. Yet, we go after the soldier in full force because of a military dress code. How cute.
@bruce21st I don't need a freaking headache right now, Mr. Armchair General! Please stop before you have an ulcer! I can't waste time typing with you! You can say all the crap in the world in 500 characters and guess where it will get you? No where! I can't afford wasting my time typing anymore than this one comment aimed at you! Now as you rock your butt around the computer chair, I want you to know that if you want the last word, go ahead. Light a fire! I don't give a flying fuck!
first off this bum is no hero,GQ DONE AN ARTICAL ABOUT HIM AND FOUND OUT HE WAS FORCED TO JOIN THE MILITARY OR GO TO JAIL FOR BEING A CRIMINAL,SO IT WAS NOT BY CHOICE FOR HIM.MIKITARY OR PRISON TIME.HMMMMMMMM
@tixmastr I didn't say he HAD to come aboard on an s-3 he could easily have come on the COD. but if one is going to fly on a carrier aircraft, then typically one does wear a G-suit. Actors, senators, visitors, if they do a "grey and underway" landing they're wearing a G-suit. also as a former soldier I respect that he actually gave a shit about the troops as evidenced by his trip to Bdad in 03 (which was a pretty hot time believe me) he also served the troops which I never saw Paul
@tixmastr Nope. I would not support anyone who actively wore a uniform to a political event unless preforming official duty. Doesn't matter the canidate. And George W Bush was wearing a G-suit which would be required if you are making a carrier landing with an S-3 Viking. Had he been in an HH-60 Seahawk that would not be required attire. Also he was the Commander in Chief.
My question is why isn't Obama campaighing? Mabey with NDAA he will make the rest of them just disappear? Just food for thought! What is also strange his there are no other Democrats running? mmm i wonder?
WOW. volatility is up right now in the political market. i can't believe (actually i can) cnn pulled that shit as soon as he started talking about iran. whew, earth is funky right now
The ministry of propaganda had to let this one slide by because it was live coverage. We caught them! Get a clue folks. Wake up! You can be free! Vote Ron Paul.
@TheGuna74 Nope. I was a squared away troop, and a damn good medic. I did my job, and unlike this "heavy construction engineer" (MOS: 12 N) I was on the line with the Infantry.
@madmedic92 Guess what, dirt bag? You're the dirt bag piece of blind shit. Die for the interests of your Zionist masters, you ignorant fuck. Get sent off to Iran without daring to wonder who you're killing, or why your buddies are being killed. You're disgraceful, and full of shit. You're the type of soldier that would kill and detain your fellow citizens if told to do so, because you're a blind fucking moron. You shouldn't be allowed to serve in the military, for you are a threat to our liberty
@FreedomOfTheUSA and they say Ron Paul supporters AREN'T racists, and do actually support the military. . . guess you proved that wrong. You guys are as bad as Obama supporters
@madmedic92 How was I being racist? And I do support our military more than you know. I have had tons of family members that have served. Just because I don't like you as a person, doesn't mean I don't support our military. You are a blind scum bag, that would follow your corporate masters if they asked you to do so. I was making a point that if you were told to detain and/or kill your fellow Americans under the auspice of them being a terrorist you would do so, which I find repulsive.
@FreedomOfTheUSA I have spilled my blood in sands far away. I know whereof I speak. I am neither blind nor ignorant and I'd be willing to wager I know far more about our current foreign policy than you. Also I would only kill an American citizen if they were actively engaging me. Detaining them. . . well posse cumatatis prevents AD troops from doing such things on American Soil. OCONUS, its fair game.
@madmedic92 so going to vote in your uniform the one your suppose to be proud to wear make's him a shit bag? we need less people like you!!!!! and more hero's like Jesse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@TheGuna74 I was proud to wear the uniform dumbass. He is no hero he's REMF. And just FYI going to vote is one thing, Going to vote and getting on the center of a political stage is an extremely different thing. ALSO since he is not currently activated, there is no reason he should have been in uniform in the first place.
I'm throwing the BS flag on this guy. Ten years in and he's only an E-4? Campaigning in uniform when every campaign season the military warns it's people NOT do this exact thing?
And now it's come out that the guy has an arrest record!
This is a major blunder by the Paul Campaign and it leads me to believe that there are people on his staff that are purposely allowing errors like this to occur.
I am stunned that people would rather attack a soldier than voice their own opinions about a subject. This guy is not hurting anybody, just supporting his candidate, and the garbage here wants to tear him down for it? wow, talk about blatant hypocrisy.
Here, go fight for freedom, but when you express your freedom of speech, we will show how much of a communist nation we have become by wanting you punished for wearing your work clothes...
He's in violation of Department of Defense Directive 1344.10, and other military regulations. This has nothing to do with his view or who he supports.
THAT is the problem. What gives the defense department the right to tell a soldier what he can say and what he can wear? THAT is the point in supporting Ron Paul, because the Constitution does not give the Defense Department the ability to take away the soldiers Constitutional rights.
THAT is the problem. You are describing a communist lifestyle.
@HAPMinistries No one is tearing him down for supporting his candidate you moron, rad what is being said. What myself and other vets are tearing his down for is blatantly ignoring the code of rules he has sworn to obey. You keep ignoring what is being said to support your imagined belief that we are trying to silence him. Although it IS ironic that he cannot vote for Ron Paul since he is a felon and cannot vote.
@HAPMinistries Sorry, in the military you have no freedom of speach or any other right actually. And they make this quite clear to everyone who enlists. You belong to Uncle Sugar for the entire time you are in. Especially in uniform. Thorsen fucked up big time!
@HAPMinistries According to the military, Thorsen had deployed once to Afghanistan in 2009 after first joining the Florida National Guard in July 2001 and the Army Reserve in 2009.
Court records show that Thorsen was arrested in Lee County, Fla., in December 2004 for three felonies: burglary, theft of a firearm and possession of burglary tools.
@Cytrome That's the problem with Ron Paul and his follower's. They're so focused on the Legalization of Drugs, they don't want to hear the TRUTH. Please Put the Crack Pipe Down and FOCUS.
@USoSilly2Me I'm 18, I don't do drugs and I don't drink. You're just making false generalizations and pretty much labeling anyone who supports Ron Paul a drug addict.
Sounds like the disinformation machine who puts down anyone who opposes the Establishment.
@Cytrome, Generalization is good. 99% of the RonTards only want him to be President to get access to Legalize Drugs. You should really do better Research. The Disinformation is coming from Ron Paul and his Follower's. Ron Paul would be the Jerry Springer of President's. js
@USoSilly2Me Seriously? Ever watch one of his speeches? The guy talks about his stance on the drug war in less than half of them. And his supporters follow him because of his values, and his stance on a lot more than drugs. Yes, I think drugs should be legalized by the federal government, which still would leave it up to the states to decide. By the way, I wouldn't do drugs even if they were legal. I am US Navy Sailor, and I take my oath seriously. That's why I support Ron Paul.
@parabola164 It's more than legalized drugs. Ron Paul is notorious for his zany followers, which makes sense, given that the man is slightly eccentric bat-sh!t crazy himself. I mean, you have to be a little off-balanced in order to support someone that believes a U.S. border fence would be built to keep Americans from leaving, or that that saving the Jews in World War II was a bad idea.
@tontsa911 who are u voting then? some social democrat again ! thats why i hate this false democracy we have..too difficult to get the right man in office..esaly manipulated by the media..
@juggernaut23100 HI CHRIS YOUR POS BROTHER LIVED WITH ME FOR MONTHS AND NEVER PAID ANY BILLS JUST FREE LOADED,HE HAD AN AFFAIR WITH MY SISTER,THAT SHE REGRETS,HE CAME TO MY APT IN KC AND WAS SEEING A GIRL NEXT DOOR,WENT TO A GAY BAR AND HAD SOME QUEENS UNDRESS HIM AND PUT HIM IN LEATHER CHAPS ONE DAY AFTER WORK,YOUR RIGHT HE IS A DISCRASE
10 years service, two tours, and only a CPL? Must have been busted down once or twice; or maybe your support for Dr. Ron Paul has prevented the promotion board from overlooking you. Anyway, fight the good fight; stay true Dr. Paul's campaign; and thank you for serving our country!
the corporal said something to the effect that israel can defend itself against iran just fine. then wolf blitzer jewish zionist show honcho got him cut off.
pathetic.
this is why ron paul gains strength. americans have been silenced by zionism long enough. just funny that a candidate like this is breaking out on the right,. i mean good old consumer advocate Ralph Nader called the spade in the dem party but they made sure he was down and out. ron paul's surviving the cuts. go ron!!
Yeah, it's been to long I don't remember the regs. about wearing fatigues in public but I bet the army would have preferred to see him in class 1 being interviewed and all, as for as CNN they never give Ron Paul a fair share.Think whoever is right about them scared of a real possibility that Ron's in this time.
They lost their tech, but it sure did work minutes after.. lol.. CNN you guys have the most high tech equipment of all the news, you would be the last station to have problems.. This is like what? the second time CNN screwed Ron Paul over.. You guys are scared as shit of him.. Ron Paul 2012..
I don't care what your politics are, you aren't supposed to attend political rallies in uniform. There were a lot of vets and active duty people at the Tea Party event I went to but NONE of them were in uniform.
@1977Yakko So your telling me it's ok to fight and possible die for your brothers but you don't have the right to wear your uniform to an election piss off!!!!!!!!!
@TheGuna74 No. There are rules and how, when and where you where your uniform. A political rally is NOT one of those places. We swear our Oath to the Constitution, not to any individual. Of course he has the right to support any candidate or Party he wants but you don't use your uniform to do so. That's a personal choice, not a military matter that you wear your uniform for.
@vrodd92 FUCK YOU HONKEY JUST BECAUSE HE USED FREEDOM OF SPEECH ON LIVE TV IN UNIFORM SO NOW HE'S UP FOR COURTMARSHALL I THINK THATS A BUNCH OF BULLSHIT WHEN DID WE LOOSE R RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH UNIFORM OR NOT IT'S NOT A CRIME I HOPE THEY LOCK YOU UP AND THROW AWAY THE KEY YOU BASTARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@vrodd92 what a piece of work you are nothing less then a trader your so brain fucked by the military they probally tell you when you can take a piss as if i give a piss hahahahahah

@LILVOKA The current commander in chief disrespects our soldiers & our country when he turns his back on the Constitution (pro-NDAA/pro-Patriot Act/pro-Illegal wars/assassinating American citizens) he swore to upheld on Inauguration day - and creates his own Martial Laws instead.
The President is not in trouble for violating that time & time & time again. Yet, we go after the soldier in full force because of a military dress code. How cute.

@tixmastr I didn't say he HAD to come aboard on an s-3 he could easily have come on the COD. but if one is going to fly on a carrier aircraft, then typically one does wear a G-suit. Actors, senators, visitors, if they do a "grey and underway" landing they're wearing a G-suit. also as a former soldier I respect that he actually gave a shit about the troops as evidenced by his trip to Bdad in 03 (which was a pretty hot time believe me) he also served the troops which I never saw Paul

@tixmastr Nope. I would not support anyone who actively wore a uniform to a political event unless preforming official duty. Doesn't matter the canidate. And George W Bush was wearing a G-suit which would be required if you are making a carrier landing with an S-3 Viking. Had he been in an HH-60 Seahawk that would not be required attire. Also he was the Commander in Chief.

I'm throwing the BS flag on this guy. Ten years in and he's only an E-4? Campaigning in uniform when every campaign season the military warns it's people NOT do this exact thing?
And now it's come out that the guy has an arrest record!
This is a major blunder by the Paul Campaign and it leads me to believe that there are people on his staff that are purposely allowing errors like this to occur.

THAT is the problem. What gives the defense department the right to tell a soldier what he can say and what he can wear? THAT is the point in supporting Ron Paul, because the Constitution does not give the Defense Department the ability to take away the soldiers Constitutional rights.

USoSilly2Me 1 month ago
@USoSilly2Me Seriously? Ever watch one of his speeches? The guy talks about his stance on the drug war in less than half of them. And his supporters follow him because of his values, and his stance on a lot more than drugs. Yes, I think drugs should be legalized by the federal government, which still would leave it up to the states to decide. By the way, I wouldn't do drugs even if they were legal. I am US Navy Sailor, and I take my oath seriously. That's why I support Ron Paul.
parabola164 1 month ago 2
@parabola164 It's more than legalized drugs. Ron Paul is notorious for his zany followers, which makes sense, given that the man is slightly eccentric bat-sh!t crazy himself. I mean, you have to be a little off-balanced in order to support someone that believes a U.S. border fence would be built to keep Americans from leaving, or that that saving the Jews in World War II was a bad idea.
