Grange's remarks prompted audience member Bob Timberg, editor-in-chief of the U.S. Naval

characterizing the media. =he conference was cosponsored by the institute and the Armed

Tinberg noted that many journaliate had been killed in rraq covering the war and that
painting a media conspiracy was unreasonable.
1 frankly find it incredible that you would sit up there and speak to this audience and
[say] thie old eaw about the producers," he said.

Bush to Seek Record $716 Billion for Defense Spending ( W a t e l l

2007-02-02 14845 [New York)
By Tony Capaccio
Peb. 2 (Bloocibarg) -- President George U. Bush's record request foe defense funding
for 2 0 0 8 may see up i fight with the Democratic congress, keen to d n e the budget for
questionable spending.
ash will reweat $716 billion for defence and the global war on terror when he
submite him fiscal 2008 budget next week, according to a Pentagon doc-t. The military
funding request is greater than the annual grcra -tic product of all but 14 countries.
The request to Congress includes $93.4 billion in additional money for fiscal 2007 to
cover COBCS of the fighting in Iraq and Afghanletan.
The remaining $622.6 billion would cover the year ending Sept. 30, 2009 and include $141.7
billion for the wars.
Congress has Already p-ised increased scrutiny of the additional funding request
for 2007, wary that it will include icema that should be funded in the annual budget, such
ie $389 million roctucstad to buy two Lockheed Martin Corp. Joint Strike fighters that
won't be operational until 2012 to raplace P-16 fighters loat in 1r.q.
~ h e r c 'been
~ m ~ the funding than there should be. House
"lean j u ~ ~ - i f i c a c i cfor
Budget Committee chairman ~ o h nspratt of south cmrolina Â¥ai in an Jan. 30 interview.
Spratt said he and other lnumakerm are concemtd that the requests contiined ice- not of
an ^'emergency' '
nature.
Increasing the Force

Bush propoaea to add $7.7 billion over thia year's budget to increaae the Army by
65,000 troops and add $4.4 billion to increase the Marine Corps by 27,000 people by 2012.
The budget also would add $700 million to increase V.S. epeci.1 operations forces by 5.575
1 the way to Ã total force Of 54,367 Army, Aii Foxce mid Navy coTrroandofl, JIB overall
ncrease of almost 10,000 since fiscal 2005, according to the document.
"The w g e t provides the reÃ§ource needed to organize, man, crain and equip cur
military forces," said the two-page summary prepared by the Pentagon comptroller. ""ttie
budget provides increaaea to ~~trtantittlly iaczeaee m y and ~ a r i n ec a r p capability and
i p s overall readine~~,"the summary said.
Fiscal 2007 detense = d i n g will total a b u t $622 billion if Cengr=s= amro- the
second half of the emergency wartime funding cequested next week.
"That is more than we have went, in real, inflation- a d j u a t e d dollars, in any year
iince the height of the Korean war and about $140 billion more in today's dollare than we
spent at the height of the Vietnam War," Steven Kosiak, a defense analyst with the Center
for Strategic and ~udgetaryAe~essinenc in Washington. said in an e-mailed Ã§t~temcnt
defaiime budget after a post-Cold Mar low point in 1998.
The basic peacetime budget for fiscal 2008 is 5481.4 billion, tir about 10.6 percent
mere than Congress approved for this year. It includes $101.7 billion for uea- and
$75.1 billion for a r c h and development.
The cost of the wars in fiscal 2007 would riae to $163.4 billion,
$45.4 billion nore than w e approved i n fincal 2006 for wartin* spending, if CongreÃ
approves the additional $93.4 billion. That figure is about $6.3 billion less than Ihe
$99.7 billion that the pentagon estimated in ~ecemberthat it would need.
Previous emergency wartime requests have been readily- approved because Congress 11
eager to support 0,s. troops at war. Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England got
lawmakers'
attention in October with me* encouraging aervice chiefs to include in the new request
any items related to the "global w a r on terror,"
not strictly Iraq and Afghanistan.
Congress in the law authorizing defence -ng thia year rewired that the
Pentagon, starting with fiscal 2008, break out the war funding request in its m a 1
budget proposal.
%=my's Request
Bush i e asking $128.6 billion in fiacal 2008 to begin the Army's eEC- to increase
its current authorized force of 483,000 by 65,000 troops, including pereonnel expenses,
and equipment, according to Pentagon documents to he released along with the budget Feh.
Machine ouna, Radios

Honey to buy vehicles, machine quaa, a-ition. radios and other gear increases to
523.8 billion from $16.8 billion chic year to accoÃ‘nodat a larger ~ r r a y .This account
would increase to
$26.2 billion in fiscal 3009, That'a nearly a 145 percent increase from fiscal 2002,
e t d i n g to the document^.
The Array's military construction budget would grow to $4.6 billion in fiscal 2008
from 32.7 billion this ye-.
The budget requests $37.7 billion to pay Em training, unit dtploymenta and waapona-
SYstens maintenance - - up froi $32 billion this year. That amount would increases to $40.4
billion in fiscal 2009. Amy officials have said the overall increase in this category
fill cost about $70 billion through 2012. $18 billion of that for equipment.

Primary DoD-rebed coverage tonight was light and mentioned in connectionwith the troop surge plan.
Congressionalcriticism ofthe plan was the main focus of co- with Sen. Warner's proposedresolirtm

was still apparent. T h e high levels ofviolence overthe weekend in Baghdad were used lo arguethatthe situation
i n Iraq was deteriorating, andsome analysts speculated that the timing ofthese attacks could be perceived a;a
"State o f the insurgency" message.
Iran's war gamesand"bairlng" o f U.N. jiupeciots received minimalattention. Networks mentioned the actions of
Iran as both showing"defiance" and "flexing their military muscle." One report q u e d that war may be
"inevitable" with Iran ifthey develop nuclear weapons, and those recent developmentswtrh Inn "mirror" the
buildup lo the Iraq war.

Congressional criticism of the plan was the main focus ofcoverage,with Sen. Warner's proposed
resolutionrepeatedly highlighted, CNN led with ninesegments, followed by Fox News(8). MSNBC (7).
CBS (2), NBC (0. PBS (I), ABC (0). Other DoD-relatedcoverage included Iran's "defiance" in

The"Republican revolt" was once again mentioned,md today'sannouncement from the House and
Senateofnon-bindingresolutions against& troopme addedto generalcriticism o f the "war plan."
Reports repealed sentimentsthatmore troopswould only equal "more casualties," and basic skepticism of
Prime Minister Maliki was still apparent. The high levels of violence over the weekend i n Baghdadwere
used to argue that the situation i n Iraq was deteriorating, and some analysts speculated that the timing of
these attackscould be perceived as a "state ofthe iiwrgcncy" message.
Inn's war games and "hairing" of UN,inspectorsreceived minimal attention. Networks mentioned the
actions of Iran as both showing"defiance" and 'fteuq t h e i r m i l i t q muscle." One report argued that
war may be "inevitable" with Iran ifthey developnuclearweapons, and those recent developnrcntswith
