Is Ayotte a Tea Party? Her newness to the Senate is very obvious. Being elected to federal office is far different than being AG of New Hampshire. The realities require backbone.
Ayotte can take credit for the budget cuts to the State Department, too. So, maybe the guilt is overwhelming.
...Ayotte has the backing of former vice presidential candidate (click here) and tea party doyenne Sarah Palin, yet aides note that she has maintained a sense of moderate appeal in ways that other conservatives, such as Nevada’s Sharron Angle and Delaware’s Christine O’Donnell, have not.
A 42-year-old mother of two and wife of an Iraq War veteran, Ayotte’s personal background is attractive to Senate GOP leaders who want a fresh face to help boost their message strategy next year.
“The addition of a Republican woman from New England who’s young, who’s a mom,” one senior GOP aide said, “all of these things broaden the Republican party’s appeal and say to different segments of the population, ‘This party has folks in it that are just like you.’”...
Ayotte is a Sarah darling. Is there anything else anyone needs to understand here? She is good cover for the party screaming memes from South Carolina and Arizona. Their politicking is inappropriate and they are seeking a 'wedge issue.' I am sure the media enjoys the circus for their own purposes.Ayotte can take credit for the budget cuts to the State Department, too. So, maybe the guilt is overwhelming.
The State Department (click here) is still reeling from deep cuts made by Senate and House appropriations panels to the Obama administration’s budget requests for next year, with some officials warning of national security risks.
Andrew Shapiro, assistant secretary of state in its Bureau of Political Military Affairs, told a meeting last week of the Center for New American Security that the hefty cuts will compromise national security. He noted that the 2012 funding bill for State Department and foreign operations was cut 8 percent by the full Senate Appropriations Committee and a whopping 18 percent by the House Appropriations State and Foreign Operations subcommittee....
I am sure this will enter the State Department investigation as well to understand if the Regional Security Officers were already measuring their expenses with impending 2012 budgets.
And for those who find anecdotal conclusive, that is what brought about the wrongful and immoral war in Iraq. It just isn't evidence that has any brevity without solid intelligence to determine the link to national security. It is why Ms. Ayotte is more dangerous to the USA national security than a UN Ambassador working with USA intelligence talking points.
