Oceans So Wide, A U.S. Navy So Small
Defense:
The new Obama budget does little to restore American sea power, which
has reached lows not seen for almost a century. Who's noticing? You can
bet that Beijing is.
Go to the website of the Obama administration's Office of Management
and Budget, and you'll find a list of 23 links to "Fact Sheets on Key
Issues" in the president's proposed 2013 budget. Most are about how
Barack Obama's spending blueprint will benefit this or that group, from
farmers and college students to seniors and "the LGBT community."
Notably missing is national defense. Maybe the president just doesn't find the topic interesting.
