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 wont wear his Navy uniform while talking to the press, as he has done at the Pentagon.

Can you imagine how fast her little text thumbs were moving when she found out!
Huh...
Didn’t know she was black.
She had to take a drive in her pink Corvette.
Pray America is waking
Make Marie Harf the Pentagon spokesman. Dress her up as an Admiral. Problem solved.
Meanwhile Kirby gets his payback for being the mouth piece for Odumbo at the Pentagon. Just another flag officer who should have gone over the side along with the garbage.
Even the servile State Department press corps has its standards, and they delighted in the end of publicly humiliating her.
The sorority sisters are finished at State.
WTHarfed!
She’s been a disaster from day one. She is multiple levels beyond her competency. She has embraced her incompetence and owns it. And she did it all publicly. Sad, but true.
Hillary should hire Harf as a spokeshole. Her campaign then can go completely opaque, with no one understanding a single utterance.
A box of rocks could pass over her for a promotion.
Aw I liked Harf. Kind of like watching Biden shoot off his mouth.
LOL, the Harfunist got passed over for promotion?
The commissariat will be displeased!
I’m sure upon hearing the news her first exclamation was “Oh my god! This is like so totally wrong you know.....”
.........and non-govt jobs.
Obama has a thing for Kirby’s lips.
I though there was an announcement a month or two ago that she was going to the White House press spokesman team. If so, then appointing the admiral does not keep her from promotion as she is leaving the State Dept.
Takes more than dyeing her roots dark to show intelligence.
