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.”

Jesse Ventura is surprisingly wise.

    all, but isn’t “schooling” Elizabeth Hasselbeck about as difficult as blinking?
  7. frustrateddinosaur reblogged this from lumber and added:
    Even Jesse Ventura can make Elizabeth look like a complete moron. And that guy got paid to get beat up for years.
