| | | State Department spokesman Marie Harf, who would be unemployable if merit mattered in progressive politics, told MSNBC that “We need in the medium and longer term to go after the root causes that lead people to join these groups (ISIS), whether it is lack of opportunity for jobs…”
Maybe the president can use his magic pen to grant ISIS killers free community college…
Harf, hiding her ignorance behind a master’s degree and Lisa Loeb’s old glasses, told CNN, “Look, it might be too nuanced of an argument for some like I've seen over the past 24 hours some of the commentary out, but it's really the smart way for Democrats, for Republicans, military commanders, our partners in the Arab world think we need to combat it.”
See that? You’re just too damned stupid to understand how smart these progressives are.
These ridiculous statements not made by the media went largely unchallenged by the media. Chris Matthews did point out how Harf’s prescription for curing radical Islam was insane (though he didn’t press the point that hard), but Wolf Blitzer let it slide like a well-trained dog.
What can you really expect from an administration led by a man who watches 21 Christians beheaded from a golf course and can’t bring itself to point out that they were killed precisely because of that fact? Nothing, actually. Perhaps the White House sees it as justifiable retaliation for the Crusades.
The media didn’t bother to point out any of this week’s hypocrisy; and fellow progressives cheered it. |
