Jesse Ventura on Keith Olbermann: Torture Debate Continues

[VitalSigns1]

WE MUST NOT ALLOW MUSLIMS TO KILL OUR BABIES!!!! WE MUST STOP THEM BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY!!!! KEEP TORTURE LEGAL!!!!!!!!!

[brownspottedbanana]

@VitalSigns1 Lol there are more christians killing their children here in american than muslims :P

[ezzstreet]

I am always amazed at the number of personal attacks that come from articles like this. The point being made is about legality of "water boarding," not douche bags.

[Salvysahagun]

Police still do pyschological torture.

[spm1021]

You mean Fox news? # 1 a decade and running...common, get with the rest of the country.

[jesse977]

He shoukd be YOUR king. You need it

[spm1021]

Funny how he ties these two things together because quite simply watching Olbermann is considered torture in most countries.

[avdmeers]

@spm1021 At least not deadly torture like watching Fox News, now that actually kills off brain cells in an exponential manner.

[brpoole336]

former gov. former navy seal former actor former competitive swimmer, what hasnt this guy done. 10 years ago I thought he was a formidable political candidate, but now I think he is just nuts

[tmaguire18]

@sekytwo

Guess what asshole? Just because you regurgitate whatever you see or hear on fauxnews, rush limbaugh, et al does not make it true With so much made up bs coming from anyone with an opinion trying to help their own political agenda, Seal team 6 will never even know the real truth about whatever info was received from whatever source So how would you, jerk-off?

[jesse977]

Jesse Ventura for president? HE SHOULD BE KING!!!!

[spm1021]

@jesse977 King Of the Dooschbags that is. and olbermann can be his queen

[sekytwo]

guess what assholes. water boarding on gitmo detanees gave us intel that led us to fine and kill bin laden... is it still ineffective???

[sumskater999]

Jesse Ventura is the next JFK. A great man who sincerely cares about the state of affairs and could not possibly do our country any harm. If he ran for president, not only would he win, our country would flourish like it hasn't since the 1990's.

[duduvissotto]

I wish somebody would waterboard Dick Cheney, what a pussyass fucker !

[deiiii]

jesse you the man!!!!

[FightingForFreedom23]

Oh how about that, being nice to the terrorists actually works better than torturing them, well gee, theres a no brainer! If we were nice to them to begin with, theyd have no reason to hate and attack us, now would they?

[DESIGNATOR1030]

Ventura was not a SEAL....but rather UDT

[macanusa]

@DESIGNATOR1030 and SOOOO.................?????

[CrackeTheSkull]

@DESIGNATOR1030 Didn't he serve two years as a SEAL also?

[DESIGNATOR1030]

@CrackeTheSkull He could have. No one has seen his DD214.

[CrackeTheSkull]

@DESIGNATOR1030 I'm pretty sure that I heard him say a couple of times that he did serve as a SEAL towards the end of his career. Which, you'd think, would silence all of the Asshats saying that "He's just pretending to be SEAL, he was only a member of the Pussy-Ass UDT" but of course it didn't

Quite sad that, if it dosen't say that he did something on his Wikipedia page, these people believe that he MUST not have ever done it.

[DESIGNATOR1030]

@CrackeTheSkull In January 2002, Ventura, who had never specifically claimed to have fought in Vietnam, disclosed for the first time that he did not see combat. He did not receive the Combat Action Ribbon, which was awarded to those involved in a firefight or who went on clandestine or special operations where the risk of enemy fire was great or expected...."Warm and Toasty"

[TheDrunkenHer0]

2 awesomely righteous individuals...

[salt27dogg]

Olbermann is the best debater I have ever seen. Oh wait, he diesn't debate anybody.

[unelmitchell]

dick cheney on rush limbaugh

[unelmitchell]

cupocity303 why you guys always get off the subject. i think you need to see jesse ventura with sean hannity.

[unelmitchell]

keith olbermann & jesse ventura, both are GREAT !!!

[cupocity303]

@unelmitchell Check out what Ventura had to say about Olbermann and MSNBC on this video: /watch?v=JYAP0Hijgv0&NR=1&feat­ure=fvwp

[unelmitchell]

@cupocity303 i just only care what he say about the rightwingers !!!

[dortyhoor]

Is there anything the big Jesse hasnt done?

[FromyColdeadHands]

I like Olberman more than Orielly, but Olberman lost points for me when he was mad about Dc v Heller. Actaully to clarify that I hate BillO, and I like Olberman because he is the lesser of two evils, but the lesser of two evils is still evil.

[DomingoHMaCoolstein]

Why do they only talk about the waterboarding? What about the cold cell or the sleep deprivation?

[rdicko86]

cos he has a hard enough time getting people to come to grips with waterboarding! its a crazy world aint it.... if he talked about that stuff he'd be worried to be further labelled 'unpatriotic'

[logansGT]

Keith "Lapdog" Dobermann and Jesse "Seal Body" Ventura.....MSLSD torture in stereo.

[snackmachines]

wwf, need i say more!!!!

[Rjackman84]

Snackmachines...need I say more!!!!

[deckchairs1]

Confessions (to anything) under extremes of torture has been around ...

oh....2,000 years or so. Big revelation.

It doesn't take any particular brilliance to notice what has been known for a millenia. In the U.S. the OBVIOUS, Duh, Rain is Wet is an ARGUMENT of exciting debate.

Jesse is a nice man, but he is not uh, brilliant. His topic is common knowledge but we treat it as stunning news.

Yes. We are a nation of retards. Torture doesn't work, WOW!!!!

[CaptainSteve0112]

How is that common knowledge? If you consider that common knowledge then a solution for health care the same. He makes a great and very well thought out plan that many people who argue for discredit. Just because it's been around for 2000 years does not make it a small revelation considering how age does not reflect common knowledge, dumbass.

[CaptainSteve0112]

And the issue is traditional interrogation vs torture interrogation. Glad you grasped that and not twisted this into what you wanted to say. Always good to see focus taken off the topic and spun towards the direction of the accuser. Do you work for Fox News?

[deckchairs1]

Must be my phrasing.

I wouldn't take 5mil a year to do Faux news dirtywork.

My point is this: Basic decency and the psychotic crime of torture should not even be a QUESTION.

Faux brings on Jesse for the singular reason he is viewed as a fringer (by them). The subcon message is that to be against torture is abberrant.

There are a few hundred million americans who are instinctively revulsed by torture. ..

they chose him for his novelty, not his gravity.

[deckchairs1]

In case I need to say it, I love Jesse Ventura, would support him in every political effort he makes. He is probably the only one whom I would trust with my grandmother.

I think he is a beautiful human being and love him for him enormous good heart.

[deckchairs1]

Faux distorted message:

The common man is crude-spoken.

The ordinary man isn't refined enough to understand that torture is necessary.

That is the filth of Faux news and why I cut out the MSM entirely 6 years ago.

They are sociopathic evil people who can't speak a rational sentence.

[aroff595]

@deckchairs1 Jesse Ventura is a great American and has some serious integrity. However, he was a disaster as a Governor in Minnesota. He needs some more air-time though to educate the country. He just isn't a great politician.

[rmccay88]

@aroff595

I don't know his record very well when he was Governor but I have to say I probably agree. I like Jesse a lot because he is a very good watch dog over our corrupt criminals in D.C. but he falls short in solutions to problems, like say compared to someone like Ron Paul. I would still take him any day at the highest level compared to the corporate owned shills we have.

[DomingoHMaCoolstein]

I don't even understand why this debate ever needed to take place.

[deckchairs1]

Agree.

[DomingoHMaCoolstein]

You can't really blame this on Jesse Ventura though, I'm sure that he doesn't enjoy stating the obvious any more than we do.

[deckchairs1]

Been tired of dumbed-down common sense and decency. What I'm actually angry about is the desertification of easy intelligent discussion. Instead it's sunk to the level of Dick & Jane primary reader since 1980. The bar is lowered to celebrities.

I love Ventura's honesty and don't blame him for this.

Meanwhile, dignified dedicated folks w/broad understanding & sincerity are marginalized & caged who could actually uplift this country.

[DomingoHMaCoolstein]

Couldn't agree more.

[rayofminneapolis]

Right on. Good Upload.

[rayofminneapolis]

Further more, that's the most reasonable reception to logic I've seen recently.
