At the hearings for the Chief Spook! . . . Please come CAPTION Gina Haspel!!!
?
Gina ("Remember how you used to hate it when your mother shampooed your hair?" ) Haskel is saying: "Well, Senator, if we knew it was torture, we wouldn't have done it. That should be obvious. . . . Certain as I am sitting before you today. Which is sure as such things can be, but then time is always passing and, as the philosopher Heraclitus said, '
You can't step into the same river twice' or maybe even the first time. . . . So there you go! Today it's another river altogether, like with different fish swimming to entirely different seas. . . .
That should be abundantly clear! . . . But truth be known, I've always been quietly against waterboarding and other forms of nearly-lethal stress conditioning . . . Besides, they don't work anyway!"
