State Department Airhead Marie Harf Joins Fox News
American Thinker ^ | January 25, 2017 | Daniel John Sobieski

Posted on 01/25/2017 4:12:33 AM PST by Kaslin

No, this is not a headline from the Onion, but rather the stark reality of the parallel universe the once hard-edge and hard news Fox News has slowly descended into. Former State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf, who earned her 15 minutes of fame by publicly claiming the best way to defeat ISIS was not to bomb them but to hire them, has signed on to be a Fox News contributor.

Harf will join the network effective immediately, and will make her first appearance on the network Monday at 7 p.m. during Fox News’ “The First Hundred Days” with Martha MacCallum. Harf will also serve as a contributor to Fox Business Network.

Harf, who was most recently a senior communications officer to former Secretary of State John Kerry, has spent the last several years as a communications strategist in the Obama administration.

We are not making this up. Fox News, presumably in the interests of being “fair and balanced,” has hired an Obama administration -- which includes the State Department of Hillary Clinton -- sock puppet who spread the false narrative that ISIS was not a virulent and existential threat, but rather just another community that needed organizing. She pushed the administration line that terrorism was just a reaction to climate change and the lack of jobs.

Not long ago, Harf opined on MSNBC’s “Hardball” that the rise of terrorist groups like ISIS could be prevented by a good jobs program.

Yesterday was not a good day. Heard that Comey was staying on at FBI and Harf was hired by Fox. Harf I can work around but Comey is another matter.

Comey did more damage to Hillary than he did to Trump. Good enough for me.

Don’t knock it. With George Will canned, they needed someone of equal stature to join the staff.

Like all lock-step Progressives, Knarf believes that all people, except for rightwing nuts (Conservatives, Christians, etc) are born genetically (racially) good but enslaved within evil social constructs. Evil constructs are the work of genetically-evil (racists, homophobes, xenophobes) rightwing nuts. This being the case, Progressives believe that media should be used to enlighten slaves with respect to their slavery, their rights, the identity of all racially evil humans, and to call them to join the revolution. In the meantime, Progressive do-gooders earn brownie points by tearing down our borders, perverting our rule of law, and making common cause with the enemies of our nation.

Maybe they can get a show with her, Meghan McCain and Perino debating the issues of the day. That should bring them in.
