As a former Minnesotan, I have mixed feelings about Gov. Ventura, but he's dead-on correct with this issue. Torture is torture. It is wrong and it is unamerican.
I always liked a lot of things about Jesse.
Hope you're doing well these days, Wren. :-)
Too bad this was on the The View and not a prime time program... that show gives me the willies.
Loved his comments about Darth Chaney.
I was glad to see him calling out Cheney elsewhere as well.
It's amazing how many people I run into throughout my days at work who actually try and make excuses for waterboarding and "whatever it takes"... Normal, average, friendly A-Holes of whom our species is comprised... {sigh}
