Former Obama State Dept Spokesperson Joining Fox News(Marie Harf-wit)

Remember Marie Harf? She served as President Obama's Deputy State Department spokeswoman from July 2013 to May 2015, often providing the press updates on the White House's efforts to combat terror abroad. One of the most memorable moments of her tenure, however, was in 2015 when she told MSNBC's Chris Matthews that the U.S. could not defeat ISIS by killing them and suggested that poverty is what led terrorists to the battlefield in the first place. She received plenty of criticism for the remark, but shrugged it off by saying they were simply too "nuanced."

Following her highly public role Harf became the senior advisor for strategic communications to Secretary of State John Kerry and we hadn't heard much from her for the past couple of years. Now it appears she'll be on our TV screens again. Fox News has hired Harf to provide analysis on national security and politics, according to the network. She will appear on both Fox News and Fox Business.

Harf's first chance to provide some expertise on Fox will be Monday at 7 p.m. ET on Martha MacCullum's new show, "The First 100 Days."

I love Stacy Dash. A strong, intelligent, insightful woman with conservative values who, frankly, Fox abused in her limited role on that network. The noon bitches (the show on which she mainly appeared) totally ignored her or just threw out token crap opportunities to her speak on, and she addressed them all with intelligent grace.

It was embarrassing to see what they did to her and how they treated her. Shame on Fox.

Hearing Marie Barf just now on Fox with Bill Hemmer makes me want to hurl. She speaks as if she is still the O spokesperson, spinning and defending them. What in the world is Fox thinking to bring a hack like her on the show?

Another Fox show just lost me as a viewer. Right now all that I watch are Fox & Friends in the morning, Tucker, Hannity and sometimes O’Reilly. The rest are garbage.

Alan Colmes and Juan Williams are getting old. FoxNews figures it needs a young leftist bench.

The nice thing about having an idiot working in the office is it makes everyone else look so much better.

Just flicking through channels and saw the air head. They get rid of Kelly only for them to get another air head. Good grief.

It is a contest between Maries Harf and Jen Psaki as to which is the stupidest, dangerously stupid, individual ever to hold a government job.

Saw her on McCallum’s show last night. Still stupid. Still worthless. Female Juan Williams. Fox could have done better.

I still watch Bret Baier, but the show is on shaky ground.

QFT.

Varney and Dobbs over at Fox Business are now the go-to.
