Jesse Ventura responds to Sarah Palin's insults.

As you all well know Palin lashed out at Ventura after he won an anti-defamation lawsuit against the estate of sniper Chris Kyle who had claimed in his book that he punched Ventura out in a bar fight.

Here is what she said:  

“Hey tough guy, Jesse Ventura, your feelings were hurt because you perceived your reputation was besmirched by words in a book?” 

“So you turn around and sue, expecting $2 million from a military widow and her fatherless children? Yeah, like that is going to help your reputation, jackass.”

So that was two weeks ago but Ventura must have finally heard about it because she said it on her pa-per-butch channel, and nobody pays any real attention to that. 

Here was his response:

"Well you know what I've got to say to Sarah "the quitter" Palin? At least I finished my term, Sarah, and didn't lie to the people. You lied to the people. You told the people of Alaska that you wanted to be their governor. Then all of a sudden fame and fortune came your way, and being governor wasn't that important was it, to the money. So you dropped out early. You quit your job as governor. You didn't fulfill your obligation and promise to the very people who elected you. You chose fame and fortune, Sarah. I have no respect for you because you made a choice. You took the money over your obligation. So who are you to criticize me?"

Now I am not really a big fan of Ventura, though I do agree with him on some things, but he has every right to defend himself against this unnecessary verbal attack because it was really NONE of Palin's business.

I mean if a court of law found that what Kyle wrote in his book was defamatory, then what right does little miss buttinski have to say anything about it?

Besides Ventura filed the case in 2012 when Kyle was still alive (After all how did he know the guy was stupid enough to take guys suffering from PTSD to a gun range?), and the estate was only named as the defendant after Kyle got himself killed, so it is not like he was targeting a widow and her children out of spite.

Or perhaps its simply that she is jealous Ventura is now 1.8 millions dollars richer, while Palin realizes that if SHE were to try and sue for defamation that she would surely lose.

Here is a post for my homophobic friends.

This whole "Ask Uncle Gryphen" idea has really brought the homophobes out of the shadows today. Ooh, lucky me!

I actually deal with them quite often, and reject their asinine comments on a daily basis, but today they were especially aggressive.

Here is a little video to help them to understand why they feel the need to call others fags, or equate homosexuality with pedophilia.

There now do you understand?

Just so you know, EVERY TIME you attack somebody for being gay, whether real or simply imagined in your precious pointy head, we all know that it is a cry for help.

And we want to help, really we do.  But first you have to admit your problem, because that is the first step toward acceptance of who you are.
