I can't believe Howard Stern is getting mixed up with a scumbag like Jesse Ventura.

what did Jesse do?

Jesse Ventura lawsuit vs. murdered Navy SEAL can move forward, judge says

Jesse Ventura’s lawsuit against “American Sniper” author Chris Kyle -- purportedly the deadliest-ever American servicemen -- can proceed with the war hero’s widow as a substitute defendant, a judge has ruled.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan reportedly wrote in his decision concerning Ventura’s defamation suit, “(if) a party dies and the claim is not extinguished, the court may order substitution of the proper party.”

Boylan subsequently named Taya Kyle, executor of her husband’s estate, as replacement defendant, the StarTribune of Minneapolis reports.

Ventura, whose resume includes noted turns as Minnesota governor, WWF wrestler, Navy SEAL, and Hollywood actor, sued Kyle over an unflattering anecdote the sniper slipped into his 2012 book.

Specifically, Kyle alleged that during a 2006 tete-a-tete, the duo duked it out at a California bar after Ventura badmouthed the second Iraq War, the United States, in general, as well as then-President George W. Bush.

Kyle, who served four tours of duty during the second Iraq War, was fatally shot in February by a fellow vet he and friend Chad Littlefield had squired to a Texas gun range.

The shooter, Eddie Ray Routh, is said to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, and Kyle was trying to aid the troubled former soldier. Routh, instead, tragically turned the gun on Kyle and Littlefield, killing both men.

Kyle is thought to be the most lethal American serviceman in history, with upwards of 160 confirmed kills in combat.

Ventura – who had his own nom de guerre -- “The Body” -- during his wrestling career and who famously appeared in “Predator,” a cult Hollywood classic – was not named in Kyle’s book, but instead therein referred to as “Scruff Face.”

Kyle later told TV audiences during an interview that “Scruff Face,” was, indeed, the former Minnesota chief executive.

A Ventura attorney had argued Taya Kyle should be substituted as a defendant because Chris Kyle's estate will continue to profit from book sales and a recent movie deal, and Ventura has a right to protect his reputation.

Taya Kyle's attorney had argued Ventura would be better off dropping the case, saying that going forward would give the perception that Ventura had little regard for loved ones of deceased war heroes.

So fine...now explain why you are blaming this on Jesse Ventura. Seems like the law is flawed and he is following the law. How does that make him a scumbag? Did he foist the most incredible government travesty on the entire US public? Did he double insurance rates? Quadruple insurance deductibles? Stand before congress and repeat "I don't know" a gazillion times?

If the law which allows one to sue someone else other than the offender is bad...change the law! Don't blame people as "scumbags" who use the law as it was written. Ventrua has a right to challenge a defamation...maybe it is BS, that is for a court to decide. When did it happen that we are so quick to avoid cout decisions...a la Trayvon Martin...or follow the law? You lynch Ventura without a trial and say HE is a scumbag?

C'mon Karee, you know better than that. If you were the usual Democrat rump swab I would understand, but you have some functionng brains...I know you do!

####### does doubling insurance rates have to do with anything? He was suing Chris Kyle for defamation. Chris Kyle was killed by some nut. A decent person would drop the lawsuit instead of not only continuing the lawsuit, but demanding that the widow fight the lawsuit in a courtroom in another state. I'd think losing her war hero husband would be enough. Apparently not for that lunatic.

Now, I am entitled to my opinion. IMO, Jesse Ventura is a scumbag. Don't like that? In your words, Tough Shitskies!

There are no decent persons in politics and the way to handle this is to make it impossible to do by changing the law. Making a law allowing you to sue someone other than the person that defamed you..and then expecting people to do the "decent" thing is retarded.

It is "tough shitski" no "e" would be present in a transliteration and there is no "s" to indicate plural. Kind of like "deer" or "moose"

Of course you are entitled to your opinion and if defending it means saying that "you are entitled to it" it is fine by me. Not logical, thoughtful or sensible, but it is OK.
