Ted Nugent: P.o.s

Yeah...Ventura is another one. I have been following that story since I originally heard Kyle's first interview.

Sidenote: the night before you posted this I saw a good documentary on Amer Indian Movement (AIM), Wounded Knee and how they kick-started some changes with the b-crats at BIA. Their efforts and the history was really lost in all that was happening during that time, not to mention the bent & sold media.

You know... One of the things that blew my mind in college was learning that Lewis & Clark weren't the first explorers west (Major US sent expedition. Nope. They were the second). I can never remember the names of the first two guys...but they were given Ambassador Status. They signed over 300 treaties with the various tribes and nations as they crossed the US (and are why Lewis & Clark were met with aid & guides everywhere they turned), and not only found better passes through a lot of the ranges, but they went halfway to Alaska (lots further than L&C).

So these 2 guys and their expedition, they come home, new administration, and the new admin is pissed. Because they have an entirely different plan for the west than the previous administration (conquer instead of treat & trade). They shushed up most of the news, threw together the L&C expedition in a mad rush, and sent L&C out without ambassador status. I want to say in less than a week, but it may have been less than a month.

A lot of those treaties are null & void, because the tribe is now extinct, but one just won in the Supreme Court something like 8 years ago. And it's still all hush hush. Ignore the man behind the curtain. This neeeever haaaaaappened. Shhhhhhhhhh. Like the fact that we break treaties is a national secret or something. But it simply blows my mind how many people are never taught this. It's all Lewis & Clark, Lewis & Clark. My son's US History teacher didn't even know it! I had to bring in all my college coursework from that class to get my son's grade improved (for answering "wrong" a lot of the q's about westward expansion).

I'm more annoyed with Jesse Ventura going after Chris Kyle's widow.

But Kyle never confirmed nor denied that it was Jesse Ventura he allegedly punched. He wasn't actually named in the book.

He wasnt named in the book. But he admitted it on a television interview as well as a radio interview. In the book Ventura was referred to as "scruff face".

Apparently there are some witnesses to the alleged event. It doesnt look good for scruff face.

Well there goes another shred of faith in the justice.... http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...ntura-18m-in-defamation-case/?intcmp=trending

Wonderful...if jesse ventura was the operator he thought he was, we would not be reading this. There would be no lawsuit. We all know who we are, and our battle buddies do too. I think mr ventura is a little insecure about something. Cheers

Well if Ventura was concerned before: "...Jurors had to find that Ventura suffered an economic loss as a direct result of Kyle's statements, or that Kyle used Ventura to profit unjustly..." than he should be concerned now. This court case could really hurt his popularity. Unless he gives back the money and makes a press release that he only did it to clear his name, but doubt that'll happen.

Yep, I'm sorry, but where's the honor in taking money from the family of a bother. If jesse is having trouble with his team, maybe the team will make a decision...OUT

My buddy is an Air Force TI (DI) and he said they have taken to calling certain categories of dirtbag recruits "JesseV". Thats a pretty low blow, even for a trainee.:cool:
