How stupid is State Department spokesperson Marie Harf?

I suppose I will be accused of sexism for perpetrating the sterotype of the dumb woman, but really now, how can any rational, objective observer of the antics of State Department spokesperson Marie Harf come to any other conclusion than she's a dimwit?

Responding to a brilliant op-ed in the Wall Street Journal by former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and George Schultz, Harf moved David Brooks to ask Hugh Hewitt, "Are we in nursery school"?

Hot Air:

“I wouldn’t say that it’s damning,” Harf said of Kissinger and Shultz’s damning verdict on the Iran deal. “And I didn’t hear a lot of alternatives. I heard a lot of big words and big thoughts in that piece, and those are certainly – there’s a place for that – but I didn’t hear a lot of alternatives of what they would do differently.”

The notion that no one has submitted any alternatives to the administration’s terrible Iran deal is a convenient but baseless straw man that it trots out whenever confronted with an incontrovertibly accurate critique of the deal. It is, of course, not true. It doesn’t take a genius to identify in those “big words” deployed by these two former statesmen to identify alternative proposals.

“...I heard a lot of big words and big thoughts...”

Speed bumps to the liberal intellectual.

SO stupid she let someone give her that cheesy dye job then went out and bought the ‘Look How Smart I Am’ glasses.

AS IF it would fool anyone! :)

“As the man said, “I don’t need to be able to define pornography, but I KNOW It when I see it.”

****

The U.S. Supreme Court’s private viewing the “blue” films back in the day to determine whether obscenity was involved should be made into a comedy skit.

Apparently, the half-blind justices had to have the action on the movie screen described...and there was yelling to explain to hard-of-hearing justices what was being said by the “actors.”

Not stupid. Just comfortable in her knowledge that she can say whatever she wants to deflect questions and issues and the lap dogs in the press won’t really challenger her on it.

Now that we’ve seen her speak multiple times, the question is rhetorical and the point is moot. She and Psaki are two women who have no future in media as most spokesmouths seem to gravitate towards.

Her stupidity lies in her arrogance.
This is a hallmark of liberals in general.

We were posting at the same time. I like your take better.

Her IQ hovers somewhere between her shoe size and her hat size. Her intelligence would shame an avocado.

I heard Rush talking about her yesterday; he was being kind in describing her.

“....but I didn’t hear a lot of alternatives of what they would do differently.”

BS!

You certainly DID!

What you heard was that we shouldn't have BEEN THERE in the first place! We should have WALKED-OUT!

Unless you ARE deaf, dumb and cross-eyed... you heard that loud and clear from day one-and even from our allies!

So this State Department spokesperson has trouble understanding the "big words" of two of this country's premier former diplomats, with enormous international experience between them?

Nice.

Apparently now so much of a comedy genre now that it is routinely promulgated on prime time TV as a “natural” desire, wholesome, selfless and giving.

Never subjecting the viewer to anything beyond acceptable hugging and cooing on camera (between the ‘parents’ and depicting them in a world where their penchants are all but removed from observation.

It’s the reason I stopped watching “Modern Family.”

She is such an airhead.

An alternative is to wait until Iran demonstrates they can be a good member to the international community before doing anything.

Another, and probably the best, alternative is to take out their nuclear potential.

There are a just few alternatives, Harf. They didn’t need to be spelled out to a person with half a brain.

She wears glasses to make herself appear older and smarter. She actually looks better without them, but also like a college kid.
