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.

They are hipster glasses. Snarky is the new Smart when it comes to hipsters. They prove their intelligence by being sarcastic and belittling anyone who disagrees with them. They use the Jon Stewart model for expressing their beliefs. If you don’t agree with them, you must be stupid. All the cool kids believe what they believe so you can’t be cool. I mean, duh.

I respectfully disagree with the characterization of stupid or idiot or other labels for Harf that focus on low intelligence. I think she is of average intelligence, maybe a bit more. No, she has other qualities that produce the garbage that comes out of her mouth: 1) she is craven; she is so slavishly devoted to her political religion that it is nothing to her to say anything and everything in the service of her faith; 2) she is arrogant, incredibly arrogant, which is why she doesn’t blanche at saying things so insulting to even the most modest intellect. The two go very nicely hand in hand. When you are a true believer, you say anything you want and you don’t give a damn about what anyone else thinks because you are doing it for your righteous cause.

In other words, she’s a liberal.

What, do they want me to commit to it in writing? OK, Harf is stupid. Not ignorant, although that sort of comes with the package, but unwilling or incapable of assimilating information sufficient to fill the function for which she was hired. That is stupidity. Stubborn, defiant, arrogant, untouchable stupidity.

One must recall that she is not, thank God, in any sort of decision-making position, but that she is serving to insulate those who are from serious questions about the policies they're putting in place that will affect us all. That is a cheat in a government supposedly accountable to the citizens. It is abusive, it is a complete betrayal of the entire reason for the existence of the offices they're occupying to their own benefit instead of the country's. Insofar as Harf's monumental intellectual incapacity serves any function at all, it is the protection of an enormous swindle.

She’s smart enough to be pulling down a 6 figure income while laughing at us dumb “teabaggers”. In her defense I think most of us would appear stupid trying to find ways to cover for Obola’s treason on a daily basis.

Don’t forget that Marie Harf was a CIA analyst, expert on the Middle East.

These are just written talking points (lies) that they all are told to say, Obama says the same thing.

Hey, look at the crap that Susan Rice used to say.

RE :”Have no fear, Miss Harf will be hired by one of the major News divisions after this administration leaves office. Probably at a nice 6 figure income and will never see her on TV except as a talking head.”

Like ABCs This Week or NBCs Meet the Press round table panels. I can see her there with Donna Shalala .

But heck, they (ABC) put on Ana Navarro as a GOP strategist.
There is one dim bulb, and fat with a terrible sounding accent too.

And Mary Matalin too, man that woman is ugly and her voice is terrible too.

A few years ago my daughter was looking at Denison. I reviewed their catalog and academic offerings. After perusing the major in "Queer Studies," I nixed it. Never regretted it either.

OMG, I'd have thought they'd lock her up in the mail room. What does that tell us about the IQs of her alleged "superiors"? Don't answer that one!

Yes, yes – I know I've been plastering this on every site where this MORON is even referred to. Here's why: These imbiciles need to be driven from government before they do any more damage to what remains of this country. If you agree, PLEASE SHARE!

This...this TWIT(damn, almost misspelled that one!) is one of those airhead thirty somethings infesting Washington and responsible for crap like obozocare. It will take multiple decades to get those protected by the idiotic Civil Service regs OUT OF GOVERNMENT.

And reliable sources in the State Department Human Resources Office report that Marie's full last name is, in fact, HARFWIT but Hillary suggested she shorten it lest it diminish her credibility as the department's spokesperson.

And this just in: It's reported that Marie is moving over to the Labor Department to run the just created Jobs for Jihadis Program!

Are we screwed or what?

I guess we should be relieved that this moron is no longer an "analyst" at the CIA (which explains a LOT about what's wrong over there).

In fairness, don’t the glasses make her look smart? No? OK.

She’s a cute girl.

There are a lot of cute girls in DC.

Money attracts them.

DC is America’s wealth factory.

It turns taxpayer dollars and fake created money into lots of high salary jobs.

She's right out of a Chevy Chase playing Gerald Ford SNL routing.

These state dept posts are populated by morons such as Harf and Psaki because no self-respecting, sentient being would sign on to the job description which requires nonstop lying and half-witted rationalizations (which are necessary for ANY post in the Bath House administration, truth be told).
