this is the case with the army's medium-extended air defense system -- or meads. the committee cut the entire request of $406 million for this program because army leaders have told the senate that they do not intend to ever buy or deploy the system and because repeated technical reviews have determined that meads is behind school, over cost and a high risk of technical failure. the technical committee ignored the decision and instead appropriated the full amount of $406 million. even in the face of the fact of a need to cut defense sphend deg by eliminating programs that are not effectively providing for the troops. hundreds of millions of dollars in the fiscal year 2012 defense appropriations bill have been allocated to things that were never requested by the pentagon, never authorized by the senate armed services committee, and which are simply not core defense priorities. example: there's $354 million add for medical research, not requested by the pentagon, including $120 million for breast cancer research, $10 million for ovarian cancer research, $64 million
