Jesse Ventura schools The View’s Elisabeth Hasselbeck on torture

“If waterboarding is OK, why don’t we let our police do it to suspects so they can learn what they know?” he asked. “If waterboarding is OK, why didn’t we waterboard [Timothy] McVeigh and Nichols, the Oklahoma City bombers, to find out if there were more people involved? … We only seem to waterboard Muslims… Have we waterboarded anyone else? Name me someone else who has been waterboarded.”

“If we hadn’t waterboarded to begin with, none of this would be a controversy, would it? Torture is torture. If you’re going to be a country that follows the rule of law, which we are, torture is illegal.”

i hate when jesse ventura makes sense. i blame GWBush.

Its probably not too hard for anyone to sound logical around Hasslebeck. Regardless, I’ve always enjoyed Jesse’s attitude. Agree or not, at least he says it like he feels it.

    Even Jesse Ventura can make Elizabeth look like a complete moron. And that guy got paid to get beat up for years.
