Amateur Hour at the State Department

It was not enough that State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki engaged in downright silly hashtag diplomacy with Russia last week…

The world stands #UnitedforUkraine. Let’s hope that the #Kremlin & @mfa_russia will live by the promise of hashtag

Now she has cited as reputable sources . . . the Daily Kos and Think Progress.  Hacktastic.

This is the sort of amateurism that has taken over the State Department under Obama, Hillary, and Kerry.  It is amusing, yes, and I guess I should be lighthearted about it. 

But I do not know whether laughter or utter fright is the appropriate response.  Hillary’s foolish negligence has already cost four lives at Benghazi.  And now State acts this way as the Russian bear lunches on the Ukraine?

The Kremlin surely must be laughing.
