Marie Harf / Daily Press Briefing
State.gov ^ | April 8, 2015 | Marie Harf

Posted on 04/09/2015 2:36:04 PM PDT by Dave346

QUESTION: I don’t – so you don’t think – you reject the Kissinger-Shultz line that political restraint and the nuclear issue should be linked?

MS HARF: What kind of political restraint do you think they’re referring to?

QUESTION: Well, this is what they’re talking about. They’re – I believe that they’re talking about Iran’s destabilizing role in places like Syria and places like Lebanon and places like Yemen --

MS HARF: Right. So we have always said that once you start linking the nuclear issue, which is complicated enough on its own, with all these other issues, it’s really hard to get anything done. And we need to deal with – I mean, they are right now at breakout time of two to three months. Ideally, yes, would we like them to stop supporting Hizballah? Would we like them to stop supporting the Houthi? Would we like them to release the Americans and have a better human rights record? Of course. They’re at two to three months of breakout time today. If we have a chance to increase that by up to six times with a nuclear agreement that doesn’t do all those other things we would want them to do, why would we not do that? It just defies logic to make that argument.

QUESTION: Well --

MS HARF: In a perfect world, of course, we would have an agreement that did all of these things. But we are living in the real world --

QUESTION: Yes.

MS HARF: -- and that’s the responsibility of the Secretary to negotiate where we can see if we can get this one issue dealt with. That’s how important it is.

QUESTION: That would not be the MTV Real World, right?

She is the Muslim Despot’s only comic relief, save for Funny Uncle Joe.

The bimbo leaked the REAL DEAL:

Harf: “They’re at two to three months of breakout time today.”

As a result of Harf-Obola-Kerry-Clinton, Iran now
has nukes (and the US State Dept only wants them
to have more, and the ability to commit the genocides
and holocausts which Harf-Obola-Kerry-Clinton dream about).

Kind of like trying to renegotiate the Kellogg Treaty on 12/08/1941. If you link that stuff it’s real difficult.

The glasses make her LOOK smart, though.

Well, smarter, anyway...

She looks like an airhead who thinks she's smart because she graduated magna cum laude in Left-handed Underwater Lesbian Basketweaving Patriarchal Oppression Studies ...

One FOX-TV NEWS report claimed that Saudi Arabia turned down a position on the UN security council because they didn’t want to work with the confused American administration.

"Confused" is an understatement---the combined brain content of UN Amb Samantha Powers, Ntl Sec/Cncil's Susan Rice, State Dept's Marie Harf, and Jen Psaki, wouldn't fill a teacup.

Odungo put Harf there to EMBARRASS AMERICA. Along with Susan Rice who lied to get a promotion, Kerry with his PATHETIC James Taylor show, blah blah blah... as if Odungo isn’t embarrassing ENOUGH.

Yup, spilled the beans. These clowns couldn’t get a thing done in two months and the persians know it.

They’ll have the bomb by fall or sooner.

Who is kidding whom?

Persian navy off Yemen right now. Pretty bold move for an outfit that is negotiating... for what? Usually a negotiating party is doing it for some protection because they are weak? Really? Is moving your navy against the Saudis and the Egyptians something a weak party does?

Harf had actually applied for a job in the State Dept
Dining Room------but ended up as State spox instead.

Before Harf got the State Dept job.

Wouldn’t it be a riot if they played this song at the State Dept. or on TV as her introduction before she would do a press briefing?
