From Green Eagle:
From the Washington Post:
“CIA nominee says she would obey her moral compass, not Trump, if told to carry out questionable activities”
Moral compass! The “moral compass” of someone who approved and carried out torture in the first place! The moral compass of someone who engaged in illegal destruction of evidence to hide that torture. That’s some moral compass you have there, lady.
“She resisted efforts by senators to get her to say whether she believed it was morally wrong to use techniques such as waterboarding on terrorist suspects.”
Her “moral compass” can’t tell her whether it is okay to torture people, but by God, she will rely on that moral compass. She wouldn’t ever engage in “questionable activities,” as long as we understand that those activities would have to be a lot worse than torture and destroying evidence before she would consider them questionable.
And that is good enough for Republicans.
