Huge victory against sexism!
There was a landmark victory for gender diversity today, and if you don't agree then you are a sexist!
WashExaminer: Dems sexist to oppose Gina Haspel as first woman to lead CIA
Fox: CIA Nominee Gina Haspel does not deserve to be a target in the left's 'war on women'
There is no one more qualified to be the first woman to lead the CIA than 30+ year CIA veteran Gina Haspel. Any Democrat who claims to support women’s empowerment and our national security but opposes her nomination is a total hypocrite

Fox: Gina Haspel confirmed as CIA director, first woman to lead agency
My highly respected nominee for CIA Director, Gina Haspel, has come under fire because she was too tough on Terrorists. Think of that, in these very dangerous times, we have the most qualified person, a woman, who Democrats want OUT because she is too tough on terror. Win Gina!

NYPost: Gina Haspel confirmed as first woman to run CIA
Politico: Senate confirms Haspel as CIA's first female director
USAToday: Senate panel votes to endorse Gina Haspel as first female CIA director
I personally feel good about the fact that if I get grabbed off the street, shoved into the back of an unmarked van, and taken to a black-site, that I can be tortured by a woman.
Because that's the problem with human right violations today: not enough gender diversity.
Plus, it's good to know that young girls growing up in America can now aspire to waterboard innocent people until they have a mental breakdown, attach electric cables to a man's testicles, and beat both men and women with rubber hoses.
This is progress people!

Intersectional Imperialism, ladies and germs.
Now we'll get to fuck the world with dicks AND strap-ons. Woo Hoo.
Modern education is little more than toeing the line for the capitalist pigs.
Guerrilla Liberalism won't liberate the US or the world from the iron fist of capital.
Good news!
It turns out that after a full week to think about it, Bloody Gina isn't totally down with torture anymore.
So a full decade after she tortured an innocent man into a mental breakdown, she's had a, sort-of, kinda, almost, change of heart.
notice what exactly it is that she finds objectionable:
She would do it all again, if she thought it would be good for CIA officers, and would enhance our standing in the world.
There's no getting around it, this woman is demonic. She has no functional conception of right or wrong, of good or evil. She's just another Eichmann, dutifully doing her job to the very best of her ability.
The earth is a multibillion-year-old sphere.
The Nazis killed millions of Jews.
On 9/11/01 a Boeing 757 (AA77) flew into the Pentagon.
AGCC is happening.
If you cannot accept these facts, I cannot fake an interest in any of your opinions.
I'm now a sexist and
Fuck You Obama.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
Me too!

It's too bad that mailing product is illegal
I certainly could have used some of the product this week. Normally alcohol helps, but alas if I used that I'd wake up dead or something .......
Gawd, Utah! The Mormon church just came out saying that they agreed with a study that states that medical marijuana doesn't help people with chronic pain. This means that when it's voted on most of the church members will vote against it.
This is the Mormon church staying out of our local politics! Grrr!
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

Methinks there's one "m" too many in the name of that church......

PETA would have thrown red paint on these jerks
if they had tortured animals the way they tortured those prisoners.

And a woman is as good as
any man in giving a lame ass mea culpa far too late. After all, her qualifications are what got her confirmed, right?

that they were using the same talking point that Hillary supporters used?

Very carefully crafted.
The execution has been exquisite.

So-o-o-o-o. . . .
Is there a special place in hell for women who don't support Haspel?
Or did those women just oppose her because they wanted to hang out where the guys are?
Yeah, that special place in hell is Haspel's department.
I hear she takes real joy in her work, tormenting and maiming the vulnerable - and so, of course, she immediately sprang to mind when some of the other Psychopaths That Be (the sort who can happily act to help kill a half-million or so little kids, among others, through the infliction of deliberately enforced famine and the deprivation of life-saving medicines, in pursuit of her goals,) thought of what they'd like to do to citizens defying their edicts and refusing to embrace one of their own number to further extend their murderous agenda. I think she needs to work on herself.
Edit: failed to change a tense when changing a sentence in midstream.
Psychopathy is not a political position, whether labeled 'conservatism', 'centrism' or 'left'.
A tin labeled 'coffee' may be a can of worms or pathology identified by a lack of empathy/willingness to harm others to achieve personal desires.
She was plucked for this job
...not for her executive talent or because it was her turn, but for a very specific, very transformational purpose that has nothing to do with heading the CIA and everything to do with introducing the next power tools of social engineering for the next phase of cognitive resistance coming down the pike.
Knowing what I know now, I'd stake my life on that.

If you've followed American political history
for several decades, you'll see she's no better nor worse than all the (male) directors before her. Hope she's competent--what an oxymoron. Rec'd!!
Inner and Outer Space: the Final Frontiers.
She's no better
....but only she can wear the diamond-hard armor of identity politics. She's the martyr, survivor, goddess who must never be crossed or disdained — or you are a sex offender. She must be obeyed — or you have assaulted her. She must never be questioned — or you are attacking all women.
The Intelligence Agency finally has an untouchable authority at its helm, one who must never be criticised. She is empowered to lead the nation into the next phase of full spectrum surveillance and future crimes investigations.

I wonder if she dons a Dom outfit
while she's pulling people's toenails out? Guess we'll find that out the hard way.

all the excitement was about. Good movie, but the first one was also my last.
Loved the flying soccer scene!
