Jesse Ventura and other good theater

So I am surfing the tv the other night and Jesse Ventura shows up. Let me say I don't know Jesse Ventura or his politics which I expected to be wacky but I was loving it. I came in about 9 minutes into the first clip where he says "We don't call someone who is committed their life to religion a 'Religion Bum'. " He was referring to his dedication to Surfing.

He goes on to say that he lives half time in in Mexico to surf. Now I am all in.


He was a Navy SEAL and says that we should prosecute everyone involved in torture. He thinks Cheney is a coward and criminal, Limbaugh vs Powell (he likes Powell). He goes on to say that the whole Miss California is irrelevant. Marriage should not be dictated by the government and all marriages should be civil unions so the government will not discriminate over sex and Marriage should be sanctioned by your church. (Let the Mormons have their own personal discrimination. My Church of the 'Wall' on WNW swell only discriminates against rudeness and bad surf etiquette.)

He doesn't want a Supreme Court nomination because it would interfere with his surfing. Should I become a total fan? Is he Ted Nuggent? I have to look into it.
