Hey James Janos/Jesse Ventura fans, did you see LAST NIGHT'S CT show?
Edited on Thu Dec-24-09 01:21 PM by cherokeeprogressive
Apparently, Janos/Ventura is now convinced that Global Warming/Global Climate Change is a scam, perpetrated by Maurice Strong. He is also convinced that Al Gore is a useful tool toward that end.

Boy, that James/Jesse is surely somethin', ain't he? Glad we have people like him speaking out for us, huh?

ETA: My bad, the show was originally broadcast on 12/16. Wonder why it's not been mentioned here?

4. The end result wasn't that that it's a hoax and there's no warming
But Jesse doesn't believe man and CO2's are causing it, just the Sun.

"A lot of money is to be made"


Didn't Taibbi write something on GS and carbon trading?

7. I've noticed
you have several posts about Jesse Ventura. Personal vendetta?

8. I've noticed you don't like to talk about the topic of threads but the people who post.
Perhaps you'd like to speak about the thread topic instead of moving it toward rulebreaking territory?

9. The topic of the thread
is an attempt to discredit Jesse Ventura, a truther, and by association, all truthers. It happens a lot. Just pointing that out.

BTW, if I was "talking about people who post," then what are you doing?

10. Please talk about the topic of this thread.
The topic of this thread is not the posting habits of me or anyone else here.

Thanks in advance for getting back to the topic.

14. Don't worry...

Jesse Ventura has other things to do than associate with you.

12. The whole series
... is just a big ego stroke for Jesse. Most everything he says is about how he is a 'former SEAL', former 'politician' etc etc - and how he is so much more 'in the know' than the average person.

I'm not convinced he believes half of what he touts. He's merely playing a character and getting as much attention as he can muster.

13. Jesse needs your money...
Plus, a modification to that executive mullet/ponytail thing.

I liked his persona as portrayed on the WWF so much more, but then you can only pile drive and hip toss for so many years...

One thing I like now is his voice. I think he should do voice-overs for a product.
