How safe is not safe enough??

According to Fox News:
Congress is about to make America less safe. The president shouldn’t stand for it.
The answer may be for George W. Bush to do something he’s never done before: Tell Congress he will veto the homeland-security appropriations bill. Apparently, they may decide the 13,997 projects (totaling $27.3 billion) identified by the Citizens Against Government Waste in its 2005 Congressional Pig Book aren’t enough. If it ends the moratorium on earmarks for the 2006 appropriations bill, Congress would open the door to ever more pork barrel spending — just as the 9/11 Commission warned against.
Do you really think these spendings will take away from homeland security?
