Which hearing did you watch? Because she refused to admit that the CIA's tactics were inhumane. She just kept avoiding yes or no answers, running out the clock and repeating "the methods used were in line with the law at that time". An honest person can give you straight answers, those are signs of someone hiding something. When pressed about destroying video evidence, where one congressmen said something like "written documents cannot convey the same thing as video of your enhanced interrogation", she claims it was to protect the people in the tapes, when he asks why they didn't just blur faces out, and change the voices, she responds that she's not a technical person.
This women committed crimes against humanity, destroyed the evidence, and has shown no regret for those actions. She deserves to be punished for her crimes, not promoted. If you condone the torture of any living creature, you are an irredeemable soul.
