State Department: Those who served with Bergdahl don’t know what they’re talking about

I happened to catch the State Department presser yesterday. If we thought that the comment regarding Benghazi, “Hey dude, that was a couple of years ago,” showed the snarky attitude, try this one on for size. These drones just reflect the arrogance of this regime.

State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf engaged in a heated exchange Tuesday with a reporter over the circumstances surrounding Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl’s capture five years ago, saying she does not think his squad mates have the best idea of what happened when he disappeared.

When Fox News reporter Lucas Tomlinson asked, “Does the State Department consider Sergeant Bergdahl to be a deserter?” Harf replied, “The State Department — no, Lucas. Look, what we’ve said is we are going to learn the facts about what happened here.”

“He’s been in captivity, Lucas. I think he’s probably the person who knows best what happened on that night,” Harf said.

Tomlinson shot back, “Well, I think his squad mates have the best indication what happened that night.”

“I don’t think that that’s the case,” Harf responded.

State Department Warns Congress Not to ‘Derail’ Iran Diplomacy

What universe does our State Dept live in? While looking for the clip of our gal Harf who gives the inside view as spokesperson for the States Dept, I found this clip while looking for the even more bizarre comments as to why perhaps one of Iran’s hostage takers of our citizens should be allowed to come to the U.S. as Ambassador to the United Nations. We sure let the world stick it to us these days, don’t we.

State Department Deputy Spokeswoman Marie Harf told the press Monday that Congress “shouldn’t take any steps” to exacerbate the “very delicate diplomatic situation” with Iran.

“This is the best chance we’ve had for a diplomatic resolution forever to the Iranian nuclear program. And who knows when we’ll get this chance again?” Harf said. “We need to give our team and our experts the space to get this done.”

(Hint): We having been down this road a millions miles before Ms Harf. Let’s lift all the sanctions. That will work. I am sure of it.
