Once again MSN gets wrong

quote:

The story said that Haspel, a career CIA officer who President Trump has nominated to be the next director of central intelligence, oversaw the clandestine base where Zubaydah was subjected to waterboarding and other coercive interrogation methods that are widely seen as torture. The story also said she mocked the prisoner’s suffering in a private conversation. Neither of these assertions is correct and we retract them. It is now clear that Haspel did not take charge of the base until after the interrogation of Zubaydah ended.


Fake news rules the day once again

Bottom line, when her alleged misdeeds occurred enhanced interrogation was legal.

When she destroyed the videos there was no obligation to preserve them.

That's disappointing. I tend to support people that waterboard terrorist.

If you don't support that you probably support slave trading terrorists.

WTF are you talking about?Who says anything about notsupporting enhanced interrogation??

The point is about how the MSN was completely wrong again about another story regarding this administration.

Damage already done

McCain and Paul have already said they won’t vote for her and that kills her in Senate

Rand has been trending toward shite lately.

McCain's been shite for many years now.

I'm not so much even talking about them individually. I just think it's crazy that long-standing senators have to get information from the media regarding a CIA nominee

That's fricking insane.

It's basically a monument to the reality that our government is completely unmoored

I mean frick. Our Senators are apparently Reliant upon the same information that I am

John McCain has never been a friend to the Republican Party. He has always been an awful politician and an awful Senator. That McCain/Palin ticket was the worst Presidential ticket imaginable.

I don’t care if she water boarded or not.

Without water boarding, Osama bin Laden would still be enjoying computer porn in Pakistan.

Enhanced Interrogation worked and was legal.
