Jesse Ventura on waterboarding
Edited on Mon May-11-09 09:03 PM by JonLP24
"I was waterboarded." It is torture, drowning.

He also said if 'If waterboarding worked, why haven't we captured Bin Laden? We have his people. See torture doesn't work because we would have located Bin Laden.

No link, it was on CNN's Larry King.

2. Ventura is great.
I sat up and listened to a few hours of his interviews last night and dude is dead on right about everything. Hannity called him a chicken during an interview and then nearly shit himself when Jesse gave him the thousand yard stare and asked if was daring to call a Navy SEAL a chicken. He bitched out so fast it was hilarious, taking it back and thanking him profusley for his service. You could see his face go pale.

4. Lawd almighty. I'm sorry I missed that. That sounds hilarious.
He was really great tonight, but watching Hannity wet himself would have been sublime.

10. He's right about that, but
he was a CRAPPY governor of my state. The guy's ego is so big he can't listen to anyone else and he has a huge god complex.

Whenever anyone disagreed with him his head would start shaking. That was a sign to listen for the narcissism. He is not a good politician and I don't want to see him elected to anything again.

14. I'll agree with you there.
Why oh why can't a decent Democratic governor get elected in this state?
