As governors of mostly red states begin to gradually reopen their economies due to the ‘flattening’ of the coronavirus ‘curve,’ cable news pundits continue to debate over whether the country ought to remain shut down ‘for our own good.’This, as more than 30 million Americans have filed for unemployment benefits over the past six weeks after state-imposed shutdown orders required “non-essential businesses” to close.That debate continued on “Fox News Sunday,” with liberal pundit Marie Harf, a former adviser to then-Secretary of State John Kerry, suggesting that allowing some small businesses to open was essentially meaningless.

The left's talking point is always "more testing," or as Pelosi has spit out repeatedly, "testing, testing, testing." Why has no one asked them what exactly would testing do? It would not change treatment. If you are sick enough to need testing, whether you have Covid19 or not, stay home and isolate yourself! In fact, more testing would only show that this disease has a lower mortality rate.

Small businesses make up 75% of the economy. Without them, 75% of everyone's revenue disappears, and also the goods and services they provide. No need for money in Harf's world, as there will be nothing to buy, or anyone able to buy it.

HARFING (From the Urban Dictionary): To say or assert something so patently stupid and preposterous as to generate widespread mockery. Named in honor of former State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf.

Harf is clueless and those big girl glasses aren’t making her any smarter. Her condescending remarks about people’s willingness to obey their masters really made me want to slap her. And I’m normally not violent. She should have been asked to explain what ‘supply chain’ means so she could prove on national television that she really is as stupid as she appears to be.

contact tracing works moderately well in finding those exposed to a sexually transmitted disease - what we used to call venereal disease - VD- but extremely difficult for Kung Flu, in my opinion.
While I was stationed in France, USAF, we had a patient who contracted gonorrhea. he remembered nothing about the Paris hooker on Pigalle, except that she wore a Mickey Mouse wristwatch. the French Public health people found her, based on the one bit of evidence in the contact report. (Most people remember their sexual contacts, but Kung Flu contacts - not so much. and our county executive, when she announces a new Kung Flu case, refuses to give the name of the person. How's that for contact tracing nullificiation?)
Harf is a dunce. I refuse to watch or listen to her. Her smarmy know it all demeanor repulses me.

Small businesses ARE the economy, the very backbone of this nation. Harf works for the gvt,. the biggest conglomerate there is.She is showing us just how far out of her reckoning and ignorant she is with such a thoughtless-yet revealing-statement.

Blonde AOC Harf fails to understand the detrimental domino effect on the economy of keeping businesses closed, especially based on media lies. If Harf wants to see meaningless, she should start with her own mirror. Fox should have her on FNS every Sunday, she and Chris Wallace deserve each other.

She is a government snob who really lives in a bubble and has no idea of what America and its citizens are all about. Many of the big businesses started out as small businesses. Look at McDonald's, etc. They started small and ended up huge. How does someone that dumb keep a job and why in the world would Fox News give her any time at all.

The above posts have all been important. Harf was born to an academic and to a leftist political activist and raised in a small Ohio town. Like a country kid who finds themselves in NYC and instantly feel superior she obtained employment in Washington DC and began thinking of herself as the hottest of molten animal droppings, never looking back. If a person with her background can’t see the idiocy of her statement it speaks to hubris and stupidity. Working for a jackass like John Kerry also doesn’t help. Washington is filled with people like her who think the country runs on magic and politicians and we little people should be eternally grateful to them and also know our place.

Businesses being allowed to reopen is not what is happening. The gate are being opened before they are broken down. People can see for themselves what's happening and how bad the predictions and models are. The smartest rulers are covering their asses and running to the front of the parade. The dumber ones are standing with their whistles and stop signs about to be trampled.

I'll never forget watching her on television as one of Obama's State Department spokesperson, saying "all the terrorists need was a hug and a job. then they would love us". Paraphrased, of course. I was stunned, to think that this idiot is in a position of authority? Really?

Another democrat without a clue. Where does she think the majority of jobs comes from in this nation? As to the arguments from the Left, all it is is delay. Delay, delay, and more delay. Trying everything they can to hobble Trump enough to cost him dearly. No matter that it also damages the nation as well. They want to punish us for not picking a third term of Obama named Hildabeest, and like Trump says, he is standing in the way.

Imagine what kind of bubble Marie Harf lives in to decree that small businesses "aren't meaningful." She might as well have said, "Small businesses are for the little people, by the little people. And I'm not little people."

FOX must be having trouble getting decent guests for their programs. They are really scraping the bottom of the barrel with Harf. Of course, it was with Chris Wallace. He is down at the bottom of the barrel with Harf!

Harf shows up once in a while on “Outnumbered” with Harris Faulkner, and is interviewed once in a while by Martha McCallum. I think Fox keeps her around for the same reason they keep Juan Williams: to show how breathtakingly stupid liberals are.

Marie Harf didn't live through the Great Depression.
For that matter, I doubt she ever took a basic economics course.
The only thing she seems good at is shooting her ignorant leftist mouth.

That woman was dumber than a box of rocks when she started out saying stupid things in public for The Zero's State Dept. She clearly hasn't gotten even a slight bit smarter since then.

Like most libs and Dems, Harf is completely out of touch with the people who make America work. Yet, she's glad to tell us how to live. Hubris. Typical hubris.

I heard that Harf wanted to take up shooting, but had to give it up. She had a problem with her earplugs.

I saw that on Fox News Sunday. Harf appears to have been packing on the weight since she left federal employment. What do you figure--30 lbs? Is she pregnant?

#21 I remember that. Personally, I think we can easily do without liberals and reporters. She reminds me of that Miss America that was so stupid.
