Poor Marie Harf! Shortly after attaining immortality by having her name become a verb, she suffered the ultimate indignity: her boss left, and a white male has been hired to fill the vacancy instead of promoting her. Jamie Crawford and Elise Labott of CNN report:
Rear Admiral John Kirby, the Pentagon's chief spokesman, will shift over to the State Department, according to a senior administration official.
In replacing Jen Psaki, who recently returned to the White House to serve as communications director, Kirby would be the first spokesman to have represented both the Defense and State departments.
Kirby, who is in the process of retiring from the U.S. Navy as a two-star admiral, was favorably regarded by the Pentagon press corps for the way he worked with reporters, in addition to his grasp of the myriad issues and challenges around the world impacting the Defense Department.
It is more than a little weird to have the former Pentagon spokesman now representing the State Department to the media. It raises all kinds of “diplomacy is war by other means” issues, but at least Adm. Kirby is retiring, so he won’t wear his Navy uniform while talking to the press, as he has done at the Pentagon.

It's a harfache
Nothing but a harfache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fools game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown

"Now, before you all pile on State’s Ms. Harf, let me point out that she’s only 33 years old – which translates to about 14 in sorority-girl years. How much intellectual maturity can you expect, really?"
Every king needs his jester. And she is good at playing the jester for the media.
I half expect her to say something like “This one time at band camp..”
He seems like kind of a woman though, doesn’t he?
You are thinking of the other idiot, Psaki.
Does that mean Fox will hire her as a “consultant”?
Well, to be entirely fair, while it is generally recognized that NFL football players are at great risk of CTE, certain former college sorority members are also at risk.
Universities are attempting to reduce this risk by requiring padded headboards in the Greek enclaves.
It's sad that young Marie Harf graduated before this safeguard was put in place...
Harf should have been promoted. She does a good job.It isn’t often we can consistently a laugh from a press briefing. Harf came straight to her job from SNL, no?
Marie made one big mistake. And it wasn’t that she sounds like a valley girl idiot.
The other day she said that Dear Leader didn’t speak correctly about an issue.
She was toast after that.
“The young starlet of State who has her own skin flicks!”
Wouldn’t surprise me if it were true.
Yes, as VT Lt pointed out, that was Jen "Miss Teen South Foggy Bottom" Psaki. (Iranian children need maps!)
This one is Marie "State Department Barbie" Harf. :)
FAUX is becoming more and more unwatchable. If I wanted the Soros side, I would tune in to any of the other cable channels. We are spending a lot more time now on OAN and a lot less time on FAUX.
ROTFLOL.
In the squinty-eyed face of Marie Harf, America is witnessing the tragic consequences of a mindless generation inculcated with moral relativity and situation ethics.
The ghost of Saul Alinsky lurks behind the Progressive Poison spewed by Obama, Hillary Clinton, and the rest of their ilk.
The Dumbos clearly see themselves as "deconstructionists"----savagely committed to tearing down America's traditions. Every maniacal official govt act is dedicated to chipping away at the bulwark of American freedoms.
LMAO Padded headboards? Too funny.
Jen Psaki left for the White House...Marie Harf has been filling in for her, but won’t get the promotion due to her becoming a joke.
14 years old in sorority-girl years. OMG....priceless line.
I'm dyin' here!
