Ventura on Stern Show Today
From Rich Tate:
Jesse Ventura appeared on the Howard Stern show this morning. Among the highlights: Ventura talked about how he approached Hulk
Hogan in 1987 to start a union, but Hogan balked; when asked about the Iron Sheik, he said had they started a union, the Sheik would be
in better shape today; his political views were the bulk of the conversation, with him suggesting the U.S. was behind the 9/11 attacks, and
believing if he was ever the President of the U.S. he would be assassinated; he referred to Osama Bin Laden as the new Lee Harvey
Oswald, noting no charges have been brought against him to date; he said his decision not to run for the Senate was decided by a coin
toss; he believes the majority of MMA events are fixed; he claimed that after Vince McMahon took 50% of his pay for appearing on an
episode of the Fred Dryer television series “Hunter�, he decided to leave the company.
