Ventura said he was waterboarded as part of his Navy SEAL training. He was (typically) not shy about his views. "It's a good thing I'm not president," Ventura said. "I would prosecute every person involved in that torture. I would prosecute the people that did it. I would prosecute the people that ordered it. Because torture is against the law."
He went on: "I'll put it to you this way: you give me a waterboard, Dick Cheney and one hour, and I'll have him confess to the Sharon Tate murders."

If you are taking votes, Aye.
I, for one, would like to see that happen, and televised live.
I'll find the waterboard. Someone get Cheney. Quick!!
The Dick wouldn't last 60 seconds, much less 60 minutes.
[Related: Sean Hannity of FIXED News, about 3 weeks ago in the context of DEFENDING waterboarding, volunteered to be waterboarded "for a service-members charity". Keith Olbermann immediately offered to pay $1000 per second Hannity lasted, to said charity. Natch, Hannity hasn't said a PEEP about it since. >;-/]
