Tuesday on “The Alan Colmes Show,” former Gov. Jesse Ventura talked to Alan about a variety of topics including what he think about race relations in Ferguson, MO, the militarization of police forces, and some of the tactics used to deal with the protestors in Ferguson.
He also spoke at length about the criticisms he received from former Gov. Sarah Palin after his defamation lawsuit involving the family of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, and how he felt he was perceived as a “villain” as a result:
VENTURA: I see the bottom line of this is racism…We still have a racism problem. It’s both black against white and white against black.
******
VENTURA: You know what I find interesting, Alan? Get this. All the nations of the world have agreed they would not use tear gas against each other in war but we use tear gas on our own people. COLMES: Yes we do. VENTURA: Now how the Hell, excuse my French, did we allow that? We won’t use it in war, national across the world agreed. Tear gas is illegal in war and yet we use it on our own people domestically, it’s shameful.
*****
COLMES: Tell me about your war of words between you and Sarah Palin. What is going on there? VENTURA: There are no war of words, what do you mean war of words, I could care less about her. I don’t watch any of that stuff. So if there’s a war of words I don’t know about it...

Ventura is a congenital liar who needs to be slapped around as that’s all his weak brain could understand.
Wow, I had no idea Jesse would plagiarize so many of FR’s finest.....
I’m impressed. It’s not often that Ventura will stand up to anyone other than a grieving widow. He’s not (quite) as pathetic as I thought.
Like, "jackass"?
Gov. Palin probably hasn't stopped laughing.
You notice it wasn’t face-to-face with Todd in the room, though.
On a lighter note, here's an interesting tidbit I just read, that I thought might make you smile ...
Sarah Palin appearing on SNL on Oct. 18, 2008, alongside Fey impersonating Palin (the segment helped the show draw its largest audience in 14 years with 14 million viewers).
May He continue to bless and ALWAYS keep our Sarah ;)
Ventura - Lousy Governor, phony wrestler, phony SEAL.
Colmes - Who?
Sarah Palin is living in the minds of both.
Getting tired of this place are you?
Jesse's getting old. I doubt that he would want to face Trig while being rude to Sarah.
Who do you believe - Chris Kyle, or Jesse Ventura?
'Nuff said.
Why are you posting off-topic spam?
Chlorine, nerve, sarin, mustard gas. These are all banned, but tear gas?
You bet Jesse.... after all you and Alex are the smartest guys in the room
Dementia is a horrible affliction.
Sarah has done more to put this country back on the right track then ANY leader in the last 20+ years
if you don’t know what i mean... you need to pay more attention.
since 2008, she has become a ‘king maker’ for the right. traveling from state to state endorsing appropriate candidates as often as she can.
ventura needs to realize Sarah never quit... she just changed the field and the goal of the game. they’re forced to play HER GAME or lose.
she’s definitely brilliant. a proper tactician.
Palin has never quit, she conveniently sidestepped and outsmarted the leftists who tried to bankrupt her
I’ve heard he used that term before and, frankly, I can’t think of a bigger quitter than Ventura — and I got to hear him tell me about it himself in Don’t Have Time to Bleed.
