Jesse Ventura Lays Waste To Fox And Friends (VIDEO)

My word, Jesse Ventura is basically straight up walking across America from one television news studio to the next, just plain wreckin' whatever fools he finds hanging out there, like he was Caine in Kung Fu or something. Here's a clip of Ventura dispensing his version of street justice to the gaggle of naifs that host Fox And Friends. Brian Kilmeade, who I believe the kids call "the Brown one," is goaded into riling Ventura up on waterboarding, and it doesn't really go well. "If we're not going to be a country that goes by the rule of law when it's convenient or inconvenient then what do we stand for?" Ventura asked. Kilmeade whined back that things are different when "people are on fire" and "buildings are blowing up." Ventura maintains, "I wouldn't torture," properly citing the fact that it produces "baloney."

Oy. Then the Brown one says that his support for torturing the bejeezus out of people will end when "they're dead," which was not a smart thing to say to Ventura. "Really? Have you enlisted? Have you enlisted or are you just talking?... Go walk the walk, don't talk the talk."

Actually, I think we can all agree that having Brian Kilmeade attempt to defend this country in any capacity would be one of the worst ideas imaginable.

"Fox & Friends" - what a joke.

[serialcoma]

Fox has no friends.. only sycophantic, no-information, non-thinking, cowardly republican viewers.

[StatistOpponent]

Cowardly???????? You libs ahave the market cornered on cowardly and weakness.
That just burns you up to doesnt it.

[newsmctado]

Ventura from the top rope! Oh, its a Ram-Jam!!!!

[quinisha]

Seriously Brian Kilmeade your going to ask Jesse what is wrong with our Armed Forces, you don't like our Armed Forces bc Jesse asked if you are enlisting?! Fox dudds, you fools are amazing!!!

[blues101]

Thanks, Jesse! Slow-roasting chickenhawks smell sooooooooo good. Made me hungry...

[AbbieHoffman2]

Run Jesse run!

[ominous]

i like how Jesse's moving back and forth in his seat, doing everything in his power to keep from jumping over and body slammin' that guy.

[StatistOpponent]

Yeah, you libs love a bully when he is a lib dont you. you people are so hypocritical. pathetic waste of good air.

[lmnop13]

We are specially afraid when people start waving teabags at us like windmills.

[s miller08]

Why would that lady say that after the Oklahoma bombing that there was no imminent threat of other attacks? Fox is so bloated with "love of country" but they do not know what the heck they're talking about.

[BabblingBrooks]

Why would Gretchen say that? Because it appears to be a true statement. Have you considered that?

You know of a worldwide network behind Timothy McVeigh?

Or are you returning to the theory that there was an Islamic connec tion behind McVeigh and friends?

If the latter, you may be right--but there was never conclusive evidence of that!

[paganmist]

There was never conclusive evidence of a link between 9/11 and Iraq either, but apparently that's what Bush & Co. were trying to do while waterboarding.

Sheesh.

As for "imminent danger" - what is more imminent than Americans working together to blow America up? They're ALREADY on American soil (unlike the Muslim terrorists, who first need to infiltrate the country before they can do damage.) I'd call that pretty freaking imminent.

[LJB1977]

Wow, how quickly you forget. The day after the Oklahoma City bombing - what happened at all Federal Buildings? Do you remember any cement blocks keeping all cars away from all federal buildings? Wow, I lived in St. Paul, MN (in case you watch too much Fox News and don't know that is the capitol of MN) - the area near the federal buildings was like Ft. Knox. So, no, no one believed there were muslim infiltrators in with McVeigh, BUT the FBI did do a lot of prowling around and infiltrating verious Militia Movements (ie in Michigan). Go get a life.

[lmnop13]

Well, babbler, I would suggest looking that up.
I guess a nationwide network of white supremacists behind Timothy MVeigh doesn't impress you much.
Bad guys only wear Muslim disguises I guess. Fox has indeed taught you well. It's convenient to over look our own little home grown terrorists cells.

[HallStyle]

Jesse is LEAVING CARNAGE EVERY WHERE HE GOES! I LOVE IT!.

It is strange to me that that Fox would even book him. It must be for the ratings. They could care less if their own people get eaten alive by the Ventura!

[Talaan77]

I think they were hoping to trip him up

[LeCanadien]

Go Jesse Go

[orianna]

Jesse, time to run for senator.... the dems are getting overrun with crooked monied interests since they took power.... please go shake them up and remind them what they stand for!

[Kuk]

I agree. I don't live in the US but I would vote for him. His clarity on this issue is fantastic and it's hilarious to see how he treats these ignorant bullies.

[abigail1]

when Minnesota elected Jesse Governor I thought the cold had finally driven them all nuts. Lately I've been rethinking that.

[blaqntelligence]

I agree 1000%. I kept thinking "Jesse Ventura?" "Why?"
Now I know, Minnesota knew something we didn't.
Now.....if only they'd do something about that bachmann person......like stop reelecting her.

[Alison Victoria]

Me, too! Me, too! I'm beginning to think I vastly underestimated Jesse the Body. I don't know that I'd agree with him on everything, but I am so glad to see him talking about waterboarding as torture, having experienced it, and talking about who we are as a country. Good for him!

[CompliantMedia]

I could actually tolerate the views of some on Fox News if I wasn't so convinced that almost all of them speak with one voice knowing that to go against Roger Ailes' indocrination is to risk being out on the street.

At least MSNBC has such diverse political hosts as Scarborough and Olbermann.

[GrainneKathleen]

woohoo, Jesse strikes again. I wish he would get asks other questions because he seems much more knowledgeable than simply repeating his views on torture. still, it is good that he is trying to drive home the point that torture is wrong and it is mostly chicken hawks who are for it.

[Chip W]

There is that point about the rule of law rather than the rule of men, which is kind of an American principle. The approach to captured suspected terrorists was the rule of men - Bush, Cheney, etc.
No habeas corpus, indefinite detention, no due process - this isn't very American.
Waving the flag and claiming to be a patriot while defending the treatment of these detainees seems a distorted sense of American values.

[fallout4U]

I would rather be waterboarded than have to walk around with that hair.

[yellowdoggie]

Wouldn't it be fun to hear what Jesse would say to you about that?

[AbbieHoffman2]

fallout dude - your lost - go back to your Palin/Bachmann blog

[blues101]

Have you seen all the repug slicked down 'doos or the fake hair lately? And how's about that covered birdsnest sarah had going on on top of her empty skull during the campaign.

[BabblingBrooks]

And our troops would rather be waterboarded than beheaded. Now you are making sense!

[sprkl12000]

You probably are walking around with a receding hairline anyway so...........
