BOOM!!- Jesse Ventura: The LIFE & CRIMES of Dick Cheney
"..DICK CHENEY, YOU'RE BULLSHIT"!!..............
"Five Deferments" Dick Cheney is back, and this time he's defending torture! Jesse Ventura may be #OffTheGrid, but he isn't going to let Darth Cheney get away with it. The Governor runs down the Life and Crimes of the Ultimate Chickenhaw from his tenure at Halliburton to his time as Vice President right up to his recent justification of waterboarding. What do you think was Cheney's greatest offense?

and you really don't want dickeyboy in chains, in the docket at the Hague either, do you?
I wish...
Ventura also speaks the truth about the conspiracy behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. If it weren't so, what JFK's niece and nephew told Charlie Rose would have been broadcast.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his sister Rory Kennedy told Charlie Rose that their father, the Attorney General of the United States, Robert F. Kennedy, believed there was a conspiracy behind the death of his brother, President John F. Kennedy. For the first time in almost 50 years, members of the slain president's family were on the record about their father's thoughts about the assassination.
The story made news, as it were, for a day or two -- it was on page 8 here in Detroit (try finding it using The Free Press or Detroit News web site search engines) -- and apart from several threads on DU, that's about it as coverage goes. The Charlie Rose interview was part of a program put together by the media and good people in Dallas to celebrate JFK's life.
What bothers me about the media coverage is the constant attack, not on the government's lousy investigation of the assassination and its attendant cover-up, but, rather, the attack on anyone who brings up the subject of conspiracy in the death of the president, even when it's children of attorney general who also was the brother of the slain president.
Check out this condescending piece of opinion from the Dallas Observer:
Not Even Charlie Rose Could Rein in RFK Jr. in Dallas Last Night. Also: Conspiracy Theories!

It got weird when he went into a historical lecture about his father's investigation into the JFK assassination. He was speaking about it as if he had been part of it, then cited a book called The Unspeakable by Jim Douglas (sic - actually "JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters" by James Douglass) as being the best book on the subject, then kept referencing things from the book. He was losing the audience, so he burst out, "My father believed that the Warren Report was a shoddy piece of craftsmanship," to the delighted applause of the mostly Baby Boomer audience.
Whenever Charlie Rose would ask about the family, RFK Jr. would evade the question until he heard either delighted Boomer applause or delighted Boomer laughter. One of his responses to a family question was an unrelated story about World War II. A lady behind me who must have recently Netflixed The Iron Lady kept saying, "Here here!" for the benefit of us unfortunate people around her.
Some of the strangest RFK Jr. outbursts with the biggest applause were:
"We're becoming a national security state!" (applause, "Here here!"
"Corporations want profits!" (applause, "Here here!"
"Corporations are great things, but we'd be nuts to let them run our government!" (applause, "Here here!"
"Nationalism in Africa! The end of colonialism!"
At this point, I don't think anyone knew what the hell he was talking about. It was something about the Kennedy family airlifting President Obama's father out of Kenya to begin a new life in America.
RFK Jr.: "Yes."

Me, I don't believe any of that stuff was "out there." Why writer Betsy Lewis chooses to believe what the media tell her is true I'll guess lies in allegiance to a pay check.
Likewise for the lack of coverage given the story in the national media, where the same few corporations that swore up and down there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, both in 1990 and 2002, now want no part of "conspiracy talk" during the 50th anniversary observance. So far, as far as I'm aware, the Charlie Rose program has not aired.
What's more telling is what didn't get noted in the nation's corrupt mass media at all: The fact that Attorney General and later Senator Robert F. Kennedy also was assassinated. Some think that was a coincidence, because the mass media told them so. One thing's for certain, the questions still surrounding the deaths of two liberal icons doesn't get discussed at all today in our supposedly "free press."
OP: Mass Media ignoring 'RFK Believed in Conspiracy' shows corrupt nature of America's Press
quiet all the naysayers I ran into during the last Nov. 22nd commemoration on this board. But then again given the ability of some here to totally ignore facts, probably not. on edit: And no I don't agree with everything Ventura ventures as a personal opinion.
talking about. Thanks for all these links. Bookmarked for reference.
"You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea."
The 50 years since Dallas have only shown how correct your mother's words. Rather than a world where every human life is valued, it's a place where there's welfare for the wealthy and wars without end for profit.
And our selected leaders behave as if there's nothing wrong. Pretzeldent George W Bush remembers JFK for ''Service":
"Today we remember a dark episode in our Nation's history, and we remember the leader whose life was cut short 50 years ago. John F. Kennedy dedicated himself to public service, and his example moved Americans to do more for our country. He believed in the greatness of the United States and the righteousness of liberty, and he defended them. On this solemn anniversary, Laura and I join our fellow citizens in honoring our 35th President." -- George W Bush, Nov. 22, 2013
That was pretty much the official company line in Dallas on the 50th anniversary of the assassination:
"Let's remember his service." How perfectly vacuous.
Anyway, the public beneficiary of the Rehnquist-Scalia 5-4 election theft also said:
""Money trumps peace."." -- George W Bush, Feb. 14, 2007
Some concept from the latest in the long line of treasonous warmonger is missing there.
------------- HOW THOSE AROUND JFK REMEMBER HIM --------------
On November 22nd, 1963, my uncle, president John F. Kennedy, went to Dallas intending to condemn as "nonsense" the right-wing notion that "peace is a sign of weakness." He meant to argue that the best way to demonstrate American strength was not by using destructive weapons and threats but by being a nation that "practices what it preaches about equal rights and social justice," striving toward peace instead of "aggressive ambitions." Despite the Cold War rhetoric of his campaign, JFK's greatest ambition as president was to break the militaristic ideology that has dominated our country since World War II. He told his close friend Ben Bradlee that he wanted the epitaph [font color="blue"]"He kept the peace,"[/font color] and said to another friend, William Walton, [font color="blue"]"I am almost a 'peace at any price' president."[/font color] Hugh Sidey, a journalist and friend, wrote that the governing aspect of JFK's leadership was "a total revulsion" of war. Nevertheless, as James W. Douglass argues in his book JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters, JFK's presidency would be a continuous struggle with his own military and intelligence agencies, which engaged in incessant schemes to trap him into escalating the Cold War into a hot one. His first major confrontation with the Pentagon, the Bay of Pigs catastrophe, came only three months into his presidency and would set the course for the next 1,000 days. -- Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Nov. 20, 1963

Why would he give a shit about anyone else? Don't know why news programs still put this idiot on and ask his opinion, he was wrong about absolutely everything! 
Calling him Darth Vader is too good for him - Vader was redeemed in the end. Cheney is the devil incarnate.
Well said Jesse.
Why don't you tell us how it is you really feel?
"Isn't that right, DICK?" "Whatever you say, DICK."
Like him or not, Gov. "The Body" Ventura leaves little doubt on his positions. 
The Bush Administration has to be the very worst administration in American history. And that includes some bad fucking administrations.
And hey, not a fucking thing was done about it. President Obama won't even say, "But this deficit that you blame on me, it was because the Iraq War was "off the books", until I took office."
I guess the President is just being a gentleman, lol. 
President Obama's greatest accomplishment is how thoroughly he covered Bush and Cheney's butts.
