1. Excellent!. I'm not a Ventura fan, but damn. He's a former SEAL and he let Vance & Trump have it

with both barrels--as well as stating what has not/but should have been said before --i.e., that the entire reason National Guardsmen were being deployed to Iraq (not their traditional mission) was that GWBUsh* had run out of "bodies" and could not risk the explosive backlash of a draft.

BTW, until he started talking I really did not recognize him! Wow. And I loved how nervous he made the CNN puppet er, anchor.

Oh, and then he went on to dump RFK JR and ENDORSE Harris-Walz--LOL. AND to lay it out on abortion as to MEN's role/abdication of responsibiity.

2. The irony of a military desk clerk criticizing Walz' service record is do ovoid you're mopt going to hear anything

about it from the Trump campaign. We Democrats military service of any kind too much to much to demean Vance for his less than stellar record. But it pissses me off that they get away with it.

3. Wow!

The last person I expected to hear from!

[blm]

10. Ventura was a Kerry supporter.

The media kept him at bay that year.

11. Ahh--

4. Spot on! Why was the National Guard deployed?

He nails it in in first minute ! The rest is gravy on the top.

From 1.5 to 2.5

. . .
They talk about him missing his deployment? Well, maybe Mr. Vance should ask the real question. What is the National Guard doing deploying to a foreign country, in a foreign war? Let's go into history and figure out how that happened.

That happened because George W. Bush and Dick Cheney went into the Iraq war based on lies. No weapons of mass destruction. No ties to Al Qaeda. Nothing to do with 911. And they ran out of bodies. They needed more bodies. They couldn't implement the draft. That would be political suicide. So what George Bush did was sign an executive order sending the National Guard into foreign deployment. The National Guard is not for foreign deployment. Their name says what they do. They guard our nation from within.

So this hogwosh about Governor Walz missing a deployment, not only that. He's 24 years. He's an E9. . .

I've only got a few elections to go. I'm 73 years old now. So the window's closing. I want to be alive to see the first woman President of the United States of America and the first woman Commander and Chief and we've got her right now!

5. I have always liked that man even when he was stepping on toes. THIS

is fuckin awesome I am so glad I listened to him. Have not hear him in yrs. Didnt know he is a Minneapolis man, awesome that.

6. Perfectly said!

7. Great little capper: "I stand for a maximum wage. . .

. . . if you can't live on a million dollars a month, something is wrong with you!"

Ventura can be out there at times, but nailed it (most of it - didn't know he was on RFK's list) on this segment.

8. No lies detected.

That was kind of Wow.

9. Could have done better without that dunce of a woman

who hasn't yet realized that not all sex is consensual even if the coercion is nonviolent, like threats of abandonment.

I suppose Ventura stepped outside the network bounds when he said there was an irresponsible and selfish male that caused every abortion. Guess he was only supposed to talk about the military.

Everybody knows women get pregnant entirely by themselves.
