Gina Haspel Laid The Smackdown On Democratic Lawmaker Who Decided To Play Dumb

Gina Haspel’s confirmation hearing went down Wednesday. Democrats are very disturbed by her, because they evidently have a problem with treating terrorist scum like terrorist scum.

At one point, Democratic Sen. Jack Reed asked Gina Haspel if it was immoral for terrorists to waterboard CIA operations officers, and she gave the best answer ever.

“It’s very simple. You have an operations officer who is captured. He’s being waterboarded. I’ve asked you very simply: would you determine that to be immoral and something that should never be done, condoned in any way, shape, or form?” Reed asked. “Your response seems to be that civilized nations don’t do it, but uncivilized nations do it — or uncivilized groups do it. A civilized nation was doing it until it was outlawed by this Congress.”

“Senator, I would never obviously support inhumane treatment of any CIA officers. We’ve lost CIA officers over the years to terrorists. I just gave an example. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed personally killed a Wall Street Journal correspondent and filmed it,” Haspel stated. “I don’t think there’s any comparison between CIA officers serving their country — adhering to U.S. law — and terrorists who, by their very definition, are not following anybody’s law.”

BAM BOOM POW.

Laughable that the left thinks they’re the experts on morality. What a joke.

#Democrats – so concerned about the comfort of terrorists who murder Americans. Not terribly concerned about the wellbeing and safety of Americans though.

C’mon Senator – if your family was being held hostage by terrorists and you had control of a terrorist, you would do whatever to make him talk. You need to start thinking of the people you represent as your family .. or find another job!
