John Kerry's Syria "expert," like he, is a fraud and a liar.

She sort of has the Kerryesque jutting chin thing going on too. Coincidence or another telling, common denominator?

Wow, that young lady sure flamed out fast. Saw her on Special Report with Bret Baier not long ago.

She fits right in with Obama, Kerry, McCain, Linda, Ayotte.

Yes she does. A fraud and a liar!

When do liberals lie?

When they start to speak or write.

It’s not entirely clear whether O’Bagy was guilty of an outright lie, i.e., claiming a PhD with no basis, or an exaggeration, claiming a PhD when she’d done everything but the oral defense of a dissertation. Or something in between. Published reports said she was working on a disseration at Georgetown: people in that status are often referred to as ABD (all but dissertation) or C.Phil (Candidate in Philosophy) to acknowledge that they’re in the process of getting the PhD.

“Ms. O’Bagy is affiliated with the Syrian Emergency Task Force, a nonprofit operating as a 501(c)(3) pending IRS approval that subcontracts with the U.S. and British governments to provide aid to the Syrian opposition.”

Can anyone check on this 501 (c) to see if it was funded by Obozo Liar’s puppet master, George $oreA$$?

I wondered last week what on earth the administration was doing relying on the “expertise” of a 26-year old right out of school to help define their Syria policy.

Now that she’s revealed to be a fraud and a paid shill, I’m not surprised, but it still demonstrates the amateurish approach this administration takes to everything.

How strange. I recall seeing her on Special Report not that long ago and was surprised that SHE was an expert on Syria. So where did this woman go to school if not Georgetown I wonder...?

How does one actually lie about something like that anyway..? Don’t these think tanks verify their experts?

Very interesting development considering the following:
"As President Obama prepares to speak to the nation on his desire for war in Syria, critical attention is being focused on the conflicts of interest and hidden agenda of an influential writer for The Wall Street Journal who has argued for U.S. military intervention on behalf of the Syrian “rebels.” The writer, an attractive young woman by the name of Elizabeth O’Bagy, has appeared on CNN, Fox News and PBS, but her controversial connection to one side in the Syrian civil war had been carefully concealed during these appearances.

As a result of the cover-up, she is now at the center of a growing controversy over whether Obama’s policy is being manipulated by foreign interests such as the Muslim Brotherhood, and whether military intervention could lay the groundwork for the obliteration of Christians in Syria."

… O’Bagy and her op-ed drew scrutiny last week when the Wall Street Journal failed to disclose O’Bagy’s ties to an advocacy group backing the Syrian opposition and lobbying the US government to intervene in Syria

Contrast the quality of those who won our independence & then set up our Constitutional Federal Union with the caliber of those who are destroying it both domestically & by pursuing alien wish lists overseas! The contrast is as great as that between those who built Rome & the Caligulas & Neros.

The idea of such mentally & ethically deficient dolts as McCain, Kerry & Obama, squandering American lives & treasure in overseas adventures, is just plain sickening.

Read how much clearer, more moral & more relevant today, was George Washington's understanding or how Foreign Policy should be managed. (George Washington's Answer To George W. Bush on Foreign Policy.)

Worse, she lied about her affiliation with FSA and about the composition and character of Syria's rebel forces---and pushed her "research" about the "moderate" rebels all over Washington.

Much info on this thread

Is this the Gal who was on several talk shows tv and radio who spoke with conviction that she had been to Syria and knew first hand that there was a moderate rebel force there, who we needed to help?

I listened to her, and must say she convinced me for moment there, that maybe people like McCain and company were right.
At least a year ago.

She says now that the force are ex soldiers,over 100,000 strong.

She's a Democrat so they will try to say “What difference now does it make? Proving O’Bull shiite is a liar never fed a hungry child?” but it does make a difference.

Well, yeah, it's a fake degree, but it's a fake degree from a really good college.
