Also, votes are a time when one can exercise leverage. Letters? They come after someone has kissed most leverage away.
how do you know warner didn't exert leverage in exchange for the vote?
If he did he didn't get much in exchange. Pompeo was pretty radical in his confirmation process.
my point is: warner had no leverage either way. If he got a private assurance of something, then it was net benefit
My point is that Pompeo is a far right candidate who has espoused unconstitutional policies. Voting for him sanctions them.
you really think Pompeo was going to determine whether or not to torture based on symbolic nos?
I think a vote for Pompeo is affirmative sanction for the obvious policies he puts in place. Warner has now sanctioned it.
not according to his letter
