GOP Rising Star Mia Love Proposes Cutting Aid to Israel

Republican congressional candidate Mia Love, a featured speaker at the Republican National Convention and rising star in her party, has put forward a budget proposal that would “end foreign military financing,” including cutting billions in aid to Israel. According to ABC News:

...there is a program run through the Department of State called Foreign Military Financing that has spent about $5.4 billion each year… About $3 billion of that money goes to Israel, according to the State Department’s website.

Her proposal comes less than two months after President Obama signed the Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012, authorizing $70 million in additional spending for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system.

I am in what would be Mia Love’s district, should she win the election.  She is a mindless republican parrot.  If Romney were to tell her that 2+2=13, she would dutifully come to her district and blather the same thing.

If one saw her speech at the RNC last month, it was full of “I got mine, and you go fend for yourselves” foolishness”.  Her budget proposals are straight out of whatever she is TOLD.  She knows nothing of anything, and she knows it.  If possible, she is as mindless as Sarah Palin.
