Jesse Ventura Goes After Chris Kyle's Widow so He Can Run for President
Yahoo Voices ^ | June 5, 2013 | Mark R. Whittington

Jesse Ventura, former wrestler, former action star, and former governor of Minnesota, is suing the widow of Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle for defamation surrounding an account of a bar fight in Kyle's book.

Kyle recounts how he and Ventura got into it when Ventura denigrated Navy SEALs who had fallen in action. Ventura claims the incident never happened and has been demanding satisfaction for some months now. Just because Kyle is dead does not mean Ventura is no longer in need of financial compensation. The book is still selling. It is to be made into a movie by Steven Spielberg. Kyle's grieving widow must now pay.

Ultimately either it happened or it didn’t. If it didn’t, and he can prove it then I’m all for him forcing a settlement from the estate. A lot of mileage was made out of that story.

Yes, Jesse indulges in too much garbage.

Not at all. This is a truly stupid move. Going after the widow of a recently deceased Navy SEAL...foolish.

Jesse sometimes comes onto the Mike Trivisanno show on WTAM here in Cleveland. He calls himself Mr. Blue, and they electronically alter his voice. But because of his distinctive speech patterns, accent, etc., I could tell it was him. I emailed Mike about it. No answer, but the next time “Mr. Blue” was on, they scrambled his voice so much it was hard to understand what he was saying. But you could still tell it was Jesse. Man! The guy is an outrageous conspiracy buff! That’s not to say he’s always wrong though.

That’s almost as bad ass as a Florida Navy SEAL. :)

He was on “The Walton and Johnson Show” this morning, and that is exactly what I heard him say.

“I can’t go after him because he is dead, but his wife is the executor, so I can go after her. I have to clear my name and my reputation, if I’m going to run for President.”

(I’ll sign this in blood, if I have to!)

Clear his reputation?

I don’t think he can do that no matter what the outcome of the lawsuit.

This cretin, ventura, can’t get over Kyle knocking him on his ass at a seal’s funeral a couple of years ago. ventura says it never happened, but there were too many eye witnesses for ventura to lie his way out. What a disgrace to America...AND ventura was NEVER a seal although he likes to brag he was. He was UDT and separated from the military BEFORE the Seals were formed. What a scumbag!!!
