Gina Haspel, Trumps pick to succeed Mike Pompeo as head of the CIA, is a thirty-year veteran of the agency, one well respected by intelligence professionals from both parties. If confirmed, she will be the first woman to run our most important security agency. But despite this feminist victory, the Dems are likely to muddy the waters at her confirmation hearings by smearing her with allegations she oversaw torture at a black site in Thailand in 2002. Typical of what we can expect is the New York Times editorial titled, Having a Torturer Lead the CIA, even as the charge about the black site was shown to be untrue.
Once again, the party bereft of ideas and principle resorts to emotional obfuscation and accusation to advance their ideological prejudices. So, once again, it is necessary to lay out the facts and partisan hypocrisy behind the torture charge that has damaged our ability to gather the intelligence necessary to defend our safety and security.

Democrats who attack her during confirmation hearings by repeating the lies about torture only care about lying and destroying people. They only care about winning a dishonest political victory.
The Democrats do not care about protecting the safety and security of the American people.
The commie ‘RATS’ war on women continues.
The Dems just don’t like strong women in government.
Pompeo likes her and that’s good enough for me.
I don’t know the details of her interrogation techniques but I am inclined to see them as resume enhancers, if anything.
NOTE: These terrorists are not US citizens and they are also not protected by the Geneva Convention. They are fair game, and we need to protect American lives.
Having a traitor at the head of the government is worse, but they never complained about bammy.
Torture makes our enemies give up information.
And if it doesn’t then it’s just satisfying to watch their discomfort.
Torturing terrorists would be a resume enhancement to the vast majority of Americans.
“”Smear”” is the CommieCrats middle name.
She wasn't there.

I could not hate them any more than I do.
Didn’t Biden call for war? I’m ready.
If President Trump had appointed Billy Graham to a post, the hate fueled Democrats would have tried to tear down his reputation, too. They are ugly people, inside and outside.
Having a Torturer Lead the CIA....................... ??? The same news source that told the USA in the 30’s “the Russian childrent starving, they’re just hungry”?
Rino global Communist moles are slow walking many of Trumps nominations!
If she is a female Danny Regan, she has my support.
“children aren’t”
Yeah, Gina’s a meanie.
Unlike Brennan. /S
DoD waterboards our officers as part of their training. (or used to)
It is NOT torture!
It leaves no lasting physical damage.
Hell - they wallow in it.
