Stop that!

Harf has a master’s degree in foreign affairs from the University of Virginia. She worked for the CIA before she came to State. This is a highly educated woman. (Yet even she realizes how stupid she sounds, having taken to wearing fake eyeglasses in order to look smarter)

This is precisely what crazy-eyes Dean had in mind when he talked about the need for government officials to have college degrees.

“”And it’s my opinion that this fine lady go over to the Middle East where she can promote a jobs program to the leaders of ISIL.””

I’d chip in for her ticket but she’d probably fly at taxpayer expense anyway! Just get her out of our hair, please. And also the other teeny bopper Psaki !!!

“In fact, if someone less smart than themselves comes up with something, they reason it must not be worth considering. That is why when they develop a “narrative,” to explain a situation to themselves, they cannot be moved off the point.”

I saw this in the Colorado firearms restriction fight. You can make the point over and over that bad guys don’t follow the law. So background checks and magazine bans will have NO effect on murders, crime rates, or school shootings. All are conducted by people who have decided not to obey the law. They don’t buy their Glocks at FFL’s. They buy them on Colfax Ave.

You can go through the point slowly or quickly. You can dress it up in academic fine words or plain talk. It doesn’t matter. When you talk about it, it’s as if you aren’t there.

Were all too stupid for her.

I only have one comment on her nuance - she’s suggesting that their beef is an economic one. Even she knows that if it were about that, the Shah would still be in power.

Those young men HAD jobs once.

We could hand them all the gold in the world, and then all agree - Jews and Christians - to commit suicide.

They’d just set about to killing each other - Sunni against Shiite.

LOL...Marie says:

"...like I’ve seen over the last 24 hours some of the commentary out there...".

But, when asked how she’s dealing with the criticism she has been receiving for her comments, Harf said, “I don’t read it.”

“Marie, you’re an idiot (nuanced enough for you?)”

Good comment Stosh. Nuance is highly overrated. It confuses rather than clarifies. Liberals prefer to use nuance to hide their lack of ability to focus.
