Murdering navy SEAL thug Chris Kyle sniped in New Orleans

[AuH20]

Did they say that about "Lone Survivor" to?

Chris Kyle was a murderer, and there is no point in watching a movie designed to make him look good.

I don't know who directed Lone Survivor but it wasn't Eastwood. Eastwood has always been a strange bird. I've read several reviews that strident anti-war activists as well as gung ho chickenhawks could not be satisfied with American Sniper because it doesn't fit into that narrow box.

Yeah, I probably wouldn't like it then, as I am a "strident anti-war activist."

“American Sniper” Chris Kyle’s Widow Set To Appeal Verdict

Chris Kyle’s widow, Taya Kyle, has asked The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn their verdict in the defamation lawsuit of former Governor Jesse Ventura.

Ventura was awarded $1.8 million in August after he sued the estate of the late “American Sniper” over a passage in his book in which Chris described a confrontation with him. In the book, Chris described confronting a man he called “Scruff Face,” who was later identified as Ventura, during the wake of a U.S. soldier being held at a bar in Iraq.

Chris wrote that he heard Ventura criticizing both the war and President Bush, so he punched him and knocked him down.

Chris Kyle was a legendary sniper in Iraq who was killed in 2013. His book was recently turned into a movie, which is set to be released on Christmas day.

Taya filed the appeal on Tuesday, and as is typical with appeals, she gave no further details.

I think it would be better for Kyle if he was lying...

......One wonders if local Republicrat hero, Rand, was so full of praise for Kyle because Kyle might have embarrassed potential competitor, Jesse Ventura?

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) praised former Navy SEAL and author Chris Kyle, who was fatally shot in Texas Saturday, in a statement to Breitbart.com Monday after his father, former Rep. Ron Paul, posted a controversial tweet about Kyle.
“Chris Kyle was a hero like all Americans who don the uniform to defend our country," Paul told Breitbart.com. "Our prayers are with his family during this tragic time.”
Here's Ron Paul's original tweet, which Breitbart.com called "despicable":

Chris Kyle's death seems to confirm that "he who lives by the sword dies by the sword." Treating PTSD at a firing range doesn't make sense

American Sniper looks pretty good at first glance, largely because of the direction of Clint Eastwood. I've read that it is neither pro-war or anti-war. The great thing about past Eastwood films is the fact that he doesn't preach to you. For example, Flags of Our Fathers had two versions. One from the Japanese perspective and one from the American one.

Where is the perspective in American Sniper that shows that Chris Kyle after the war was either a serial killer or a serial liar? Did American Sniper show the perspective of the Iraqis that viewed Americans as a hostile invading force? Seriously, the Iraqis had more of a reason to fight back than the Japanese. The reviews I've read of American Sniper, both pro and con, is that it's an unabashed glorification of the Iraq war in general and Chris Kyle in particular.

I doubt that Rand Paul is at all worried about "rival" Jesse Ventura. It's far more likely that Rand is trying to reach the same teocon voters that are going to blindly see Chris Kyle as a hero and look past his lies about or murders of Americans in NOLA.

(i might agree..Rand appears to work hard to pander to the really stooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopid, gd creep Republicans/conservatives...after all, and sadly, there are a lot more stoooooooooooooooooooooooopid gd creep Republican/conservative primary voters than there are decent knowledgeable independents, populists, libertarians, etc..but if Jesse Ventura runs and if Rand gets the stinking, rotten Republican nomination, i bet the apparent straight-talking Jesse will be double-talking, forked-tongued Rand's doom...but i don't think Rand will get the stinking rotten Republican nomination...i know too many activists who ACTIVELY supported his father who are already disgusted by 'The Rand Brand'...

LOL. So why didn't Jesse Ventura run for the libertarian party ticket in 2012 and run in the general election against Romney and Obama? Certainly he could have dropped out in the off chance that Ron somehow won the nomination. Speaking of Ron and the nomination, Rand is already much closer than Ron ever was to that. Also Jesse should have run for senator back in 2008. (See: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=92357303) He could have won that race despite being a 9/11 Truther. I wish he had run. It would have been fun seeing him gum up the works. But.....he didn't. If Rand wins the nomination (possible) and Jesse runs as a spoiler I will never forgive Jesse for that. And I'm one of the first people to ever say anything even remotely critical of Rand. Not a fanboy here but a realist.

And the reason Ventura didn't run third party in 2008 or 2012 is....?

That he is an attention whore, and knows he can't raise the money. Also, he would have got even less votes than Gary Johnson.

Ron > Rand

In philosophy, foreign policy, economics, and in principle Ron>Rand.

In electability Rand>Ron.

 

[ThePaleoLibertarian]

Jesse Ventura isn't a libertarian. He used to describe himself as a "Goldwater Conservative" but for a while now he's been talking about how he supports certain socialist reforms, and has talked about how "radical capitalism" cause the economic crisis. The only reason he has traction among libertarian circles is because he's critical of certain aspects of the current statist paradigm, but the guy is all over the place, and a bit of a nut. I remember him talking about how 2012, solar activity was going to bring the grid down, an a lot of other assorted craziness.

I'm glad Chris Kyle is dead. One less murderous thug welfare whore out in the wild.

(Maybe only Jesse knows..it seemed to me he ?may have bowed out for Ron Paul..Also he--to his great credit!---seems very 'anti-party' (esp. the miserable, stinking Republicrats...Also not '3rd party'...2nd party..) so he may not GASS about an endorsement from 'the party' that nominated stinking conservative Republican Bob Barf...again, good for Jesse!..)

We're in the stage where electability matters. Rand Paul is the closest we're going to get to a President that takes liberty seriously. The Liberty Movement is doing a great job of creating a big-tent movement, full of constitutionalists, anarcho-capitalists, radical minarchists, conservatives who learned that they were wrong about Bush and the GOP, paleoconservatives, right wing populists, social democrats who admire our stand on war and corporate subsidy, independents who are sick of the WDC machine and even a few war-weary neocons who just decided that in the end it wasn't worth it. We've got a great little band together; now it's time to start winning elections! Ron was the better person to do the job, but Rand is the one who might actually get it.

I think I'll just take the opposite opinion on whats best for the country from anyone with the stars and bars as their avatar.

And no-one near the truth can ever be elected. There is an entire lie machine beset against them, with the full force of the NSA. Rand Paul would be convicted of baby rape before he wins the presidency.
