VIDEO: Megyn Kelly Takes Obama Spokeswoman Marie Harf to the Woodshed
TPNN ^
OH MARIE, COME ON!”
Obama State Department Deputy Spokeswoman Marie Harf is earning the reputation of just another paid liar within the Obama regime.
Her appearance on FOX News’ “The Kelly File” with Megyn Kelly is sure to cement that standing as Harf attempts to provide her usual lies, deflections, and non-answers in an extensive interview (WATCH VIDEO BELOW) regarding the crumbling of Iraq and the release of five top terrorists for Bowe Bergdahl.

During the interview, Harf uses the word “clear,” as-in “we’ve been clear” (or clearly) a whopping seven times. As you’ll see, that is a sure-tell sign that a lie will be immediately following.
Megyn Kelly doesn’t let Harf get away with allowing Obama to have two diametrically opposite positions regarding ISIS terrorists taking over parts of Iraq.
Kelly plays two clips of Obama, one stating that he was in favor of withdrawing troops from Iraq (during the presidential campaign) and another where he claims that removing troops too early wasn’t his decision, but was Iraq’s (after the situation in Iraq implodes), while showing a quote in January where Obama stated that the brutal ISIS terrorist group was like a “JV team.”
KELLY: But the point is should we have been doing more? Because, has it slipped away? Have the gains that we achieved just a couple of years ago slipped away under President Obama?
HARF: Well, this is a very different threat that were looking at today than we’ve seen before in Iraq. It’s one that’s been growing certainly but to compare it to a few years ago just doesn’t hold up in terms of what we’ve seen in the threat that we see today. So, what were focus on.
KELLY: How so? How so, how so? Because, let me just refresh the viewers that it was just in January that this group took over Fallujah and started flying the al Qaeda flag and the president was asked about that and he told New York Magazine, I think it was, I have it here if we can put it on the board, he said — hold on a second I try to read it as they pop it out there. He talked about how they were JV — here it is. This is “the analogy we use around here sometimes and I think it’s accurate is if a JV team puts on Lakers uniforms, it doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant.” Did he underestimate the threat?
HARF: Not at all. Look, this is a threat we’ve been talking to the Iraqis and other partners in the region about for months. We talked about it just last November before those comments you mentioned with Prime Minister Maliki when he was here. And that’s why we’ve been increasing supportive munitions, we’ve been increasing supportive.

MEGYN KELLY: Then why did President Obama referred them to JV?
MARIE HARF: Well, it’s a group that changing. The terrorist threat changes. Quite frankly, on a week by week and months by months basis.
KELLY: Oh, Marie, come on! In January they were JV and now that we’re in June there is this devastating terror group that’s basically taking over Iraq?
HARF: We have been very clear about this threat from ISIL for a long time. But we have seen them grow in strength, mostly because of the situation in Syria. They have been able to gain strength there. And unfortunately, what we’ve seen over the past few weeks is the Iraqi army surprised a lot of people and couldn’t stand up to the fight. So, what we’re focused on today as this threat has evolved over many months is.
KELLY: Particularly January to June. I mean, is that what you want the audience to believe? That in January they were JV as the president said, but in that period from January to June that’s when they became, I guess they’re varsity now.
HARF: Well, we were worried about this threat in January, too, Megyn. I don’t think that anyone should we weren’t.
Kelly continues her tough questioning of Obama’s Harf, giving her ample opportunity to retract an earlier statement made by Harf at a press briefing, in which she implied that Bowe Bergdahl’s platoon members, who labeled him a deserter at best, and a traitor at worst, were liars. As usual, Harf avoids directly answering the question.
