Excerpt

Because [the Obama administration's 2010] military budget is larger, in real terms, than any of its Bush administration predecessors, 87 percent of our overall security resources are still allocated to the tools of military force. And because of this, the increases in spending on defense and prevention, as important as they are, amount to deckchair arranging on the ship of security spending. The goal of rebalanced security, as a budgetary matter, remains to be realized.

Excerpt:

Secretary Janet Napolitano will provide her conclusions from the [Quadrennial Homeland Security Review] to Congress in a final report by December 31, 2009. Norquist explains that “the results of that review, and the funding shown in the budget and the multiyear FYHSP [Future Years Homeland Security Program] that accompany it, will give a more complete picture of where this administration is headed.”

Excerpt:

Reallocating even relatively small amounts of the money devoted to offense could go a long way toward bolstering either prevention or defense. For example, for just half of the $10.4 billion DoD plans to spend on missile defense programs in fiscal year 2007, the nation could triple spending for port security (planned at $2 billion) and double spending to recapitalize the Coast Guard (planned at $935 million).

For what DoD spends on Iraq each month (currently about $8 billion, according to the Congressional Research Service), the federal government could double planned FY 2007 spending for emergency prepared ness and response ($5.5 billion), nuclear detection ($536 million), medical countermeasures to chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats ($2 billion), and enhancements to FEMA’s alert and early warning systems ($70 million).
