Hill staffer says NASA is 'run by idiots'

NASA WATCH's Keith Cowing puts a spotlight on House staffer Keith Monroe's recent 'Tweet' comments saying, NASA is "Run By Idiots." In Mornoe's posts, the Senate-passed NASA Authorization Act of 2010 is also trashed.

According to the report and LinkedIn, "Monroe is a professional staff member of the House Science and Technology Subcommittee on Space and Aeronautics, and a principal advisor to the ranking member of the Science and Technology Committee, specializing in legislation and oversight of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), as well as the space-related activities of the Departments of Transportation and Commerce. Mr. Monroe also advises the ranking member of the Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee on technical, funding and policy issues."

The Keith Cowing post may help explain the House Science and Technology Committee's recommended NASA Authorization Act of 2010, as well as the many objections raised to it by several members of the Congress. The House authorization policy debate may resume next month with floor amendments.
