Jesse Ventura Is A Fraud
I have touched on this before on the show, but for those of you who missed it, I finally got the video done exposing the lies of Jesse Ventura. I know that his internet supporters are many, but it is important for them to understand that I have the facts on my side here. Jesse has admitted that he never was a Navy SEAL, and that he never saw combat action in Vietnam. I source these claims through Minnesota Public Radio and Wikipedia. In this video, you will see Jesse claiming to be a SEAL and hear him in an interview with Howard Stern describing in great detail his combat missions in Vietnam, despite his prior admissions to the contrary. This is important as it goes to the heart of the credibility of the man. Typically, I pick on him for his moronic assertions. Today, I bring you the meat and potatoes. Introducing Jesse "The Fraud" Ventura.

Salisbury: We know what it's like to be in Vietnam as a SEAL. We know the terror you have to face day-in and day-out. And for somebody that spent most of his time floating around on a ship in the South China Sea to call himself a SEAL, we don't take that very well.
Holman: He's not a stupid guy, he understands the distinction, and he understands the difference it makes in politics, and he's had plenty of chance you use to sort of make the precise distinction, in his book and in the Playboy interview. he's had a long time to talk about it and had all these chances to write about it.
Salisbury: Ross Perot is a graduate of the Naval Academy, and whatever else you might think of him, he has a strong sense of honor and integrity, and smoke is coming out of his ears about this business of Ventura claiming to be a SEAL.
Those are not my words, folks. Those are quotes from the 1999 MPR article linked above. I do, however, agree with them. As Jesse Ventura hosts his show "Conspiracy Theories", I wonder if he will cover this conspiracy by himself and the staff surrounding him to keep the truth about his service under wraps. There is honor in Jesse's service to his Country. There is no honor in the way he misrepresents it.
