PBS: CIA chief addresses ‘doubters’ of Russian hacking report
Outgoing CIA Director John Brennan said Tuesday that those who doubt the connection between Russia and the hacking of Democratic Party email accounts, leading up to November’s election, should take a look at the forthcoming intelligence report “before they make those judgments.”
President-elect Donald Trump, among others, has questioned the assessment that Russia is behind the hacking, citing past intelligence community mistakes, including the finding of no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
“In the aftermath of that, there was a total review of the review process and the analytic process and the assessments that are done with the intelligence community with a number of steps that were taken to ensure that we’re going to be as accurate as possible,” said Brennan in an exit interview with PBS NewsHour co-anchor Judy Woodruff.

Fake Colour threat alerts, torture, rendition.
Certainly the American people don't trust George W. Bush or Dick Cheney. Those men are almost universally despised.
ReplyDeleteThey did,
ReplyDeleteThey cheered torture, still do.
Then it all went sideways and they pretended they never voted for Bush/Cheney

In 4 years time they will be pretending they never voted for Trump, in order to vote for the next conservative Conman.
Jay,
ReplyDeleteMost who voted for him admit they did and now regret it. You nay find small pockets of people who support them but this is few and far between.
As far as supporting "torture", what approaches are permissable to use in an interrogation are debatable. The standard media approach seems to be anything that makes an enemy combatant uncomfortable is considered torture. When 10s of millions of lives are at stake, it's understandable that soneone might want a policy maker or agent to err on the side of what some might consider "torture", making an enemy uncomfortable.
Thanka for the link. Hatred for Bush/Cheney is especially prevelant among the tea party. I know a number of these people and their leaders. The group never really had the influence the mmedia claimed it had. Furthetmore the group didn't exactly help itself either.
Whether people vote for Trump in 4 years will depend upon how well he delivers on improving American national security which includes securing the borders and improving the economy. If he fails, few if any will deny they voted for him.
As for "cobservative conman", I'm not really sure what you mean. America is politically left of center. As such, a "conservative" cannot generally win a national election nor would it be profitable for someone to pretend, be a "conman" that they are.
Very respectfully, as a Canadian you may not understand America, your understanding is clouded by media distortions, your understanding is limited to the elites, or some combibation of these.
