Gaffney, Jr. (born April 5, 1953) is the founder and president of the Center for Security Policy, columnist at The Washington Times, Big Peace, and Townhall, and radio host on Secure Freedom Radio.Gaffney began his public service career in the 1970s, working as an aide in the office of Democratic Senator Henry M. Jackson, under Richard Perle. From August 1983 until November 1987, Gaffney held the position of Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear Forces and Arms Control Policy in the Reagan Administration, again serving under Perle. In April 1987, Gaffney was nominated to the position of US Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Policy. He served as the acting Assistant Secretary for seven months, [3] though his confirmation was ultimately blocked by the United States Senate. In 1988, Gaffney established the Center for Security Policy (CSP), a conservative national security and defense policy organization. Gaffney appeared on FahrenHYPE 9/11, the conservative documentary that was intended as a rebuttal to Michael Moore's film Fahrenheit 9/11. [4] Gaffney was an executive producer for the documentary Islam vs. Islamists: Voices from the Muslim Center. The documentary was created to air as part of the America at a Crossroads series on PBS, but it has not been shown. PBS claimed that the film failed "to meet their standards, " but Gaffney called the decision "censorship."[5] He is a founding member of the Set America Free Coalition to reduce dependence on foreign oil and is part of the current iteration of the Committee on the Present Danger. [6] In November 1992, Gaffney's Center for Security Policy organization released a report detailing voter fraud in Angola's presidential election. Election officials stopped registering voters 40 days before the election. Polling stations had identical voting results. The MPLA retained a monopoly on television election-coverage. CSP also found widespread vote buying by the MPLA, the discarding of as many as 25% of cast ballots, and electricity blackouts during voter counting. United Nations special envoy Margaret Anstee said she "had never witnessed a more unfair election, even in Latin America."[7] Along with a number of figures who later assumed leading positions in the George W. Bush administration, Gaffney was one of 25 signatories[8] of the June 3, 1997 "Statement of Principles" from the Project for the New American Century, [9] an educational and political advocacy organization whose stated goal was "to promote American global leadership."[10] [edit] Dispute with Grover NorquistIn February 2003, Gaffney and David Horowitz criticized Grover Norquist, an anti-tax activist and prominent Republican strategist, for alleged ties to Abdurahman Alamoudi, Khaled Saffuri, and Sami al-Arian, all of whom had attempted to influence the Bush Administration. Gaffney said a press release by the American Muslim Council credited Ali Tulbah, a Bush-White House aide, for getting them access to the administration. Norquist banned Gaffney from the weekly "Wednesday Meeting" of the Leave Us Alone Coalition that Norquist hosted. Norquist later wrote an open letter, implying that Gaffney's account amounted to "racial prejudice, religious bigotry [and] ethnic hatred." In 2011, Gaffney accused Norquist of "helping the Muslim Brotherhood spread its influence" in the U.S. government. David Keene, President of the American Conservative Union, later commented on the Gaffney-Norquist dispute, saying, "I, for one, don't see it. If you read the transcript [of the panel], you can see if Frank was right or wrong, but there was nothing racist or bigoted about it." In a front-page story in The Wall Street Journal, Karl Rove dismissed Gaffney's assertions regarding Bush, stating "there's no there there." In an article appearing in the January 2007 edition of Vanity Fair about neoconservatives who pushe.…

Wraps. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. [2], iii, [1], ES-ii, 31, [1], [4] pages. Footnotes. Boxes. The Panel consisted of John S. Foster, Jr. (Chairman), and Harold M. Agnew, Sydell P. Gold, Stephen J. Guidice, and James R. Schlesinger. From the Executive Summary: Congress established this Panel in 1999 to examine whether the United States can expect to sustain confidence in its nuclear deterrent while complying with the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty. This year we reviewed the national capability to perform the high priority, day-to-day work of stockpile stewardship - surveillance, assessments, refurbishment, annual certification, and production. We find a disturbing gap between the nation's declaratory policy that maintenance of a safe and reliable nuclear stockpile is a supreme national interest and the actions taken to support this policy. We [the Panel] are particularly concerned about the Department of Energy's nuclear weapons production complex. (cont.) Internal and independent reviews, including ours, find that after more than a decade of under-investment in the weapons complex, it is at unacceptably high risk to perform currently agreed upon weapon refurbishments, and it remains unready to fix nuclear component problems that may arise in years ahead. Throughout the broader complex the trends point downward because of the aging of facilities and the workforce. Morale is low, especially in the laboratories. Parts of the weapon complex infrastructure are defective; the production capabilities that remain are fragile. The Panel sees a growing need for a coherent vision, comprehensive plan, and programmatic commitment to reverse this situation. The panel issued recommendations on the production complex; design, production, and certification; surveillance; assessment tools and methods; annual certification process; DoD's roles; and test readiness. …

Staplebound. Zustand: Good. Contemporary Xerox-style copy. [3], 5p pages, Appendix A (1 page), Appendix B (1 page), Appendix D (30 pages--statutory language). Congress passed a substantial reorganization of the Department of Energy (DOE) in Title 32 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2000 (P.L. 106-65). The legislation created a new semi-autonomous agency within DOE, the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), with responsibility for the nation's nuclear weapons, non-proliferation, and naval reactors programs. Congress took this action in response to a major espionage scandal, decades of documented mismanagement at the Department, and numerous reports and studies that detailed weak management, confused lines of authority, and lack of mission focus within the Department's military nuclear programs. A Special Oversight Panel on DOE Reorganization was created to work with the NNSA on the timely and effective implementation of the DOE reorganization mandated by the new law. The Panel has a number of concerns with the implementation plan. Key among them is that the plan overemphasizes DOE control over the NNSA, undermines the semi-autonomy of the NNSA, and would violate key provisions of Title 32. It would place DOE personnel and officers in key NNSA positions by "dual-hatting" them. The plan would also retain DOE management and budget processes, organizational structures, and lines of authority that the Panel believes to be flawed and that Title 32 was intended to reform. The implementation plan provided no guidance concerning budget reforms required by Title 32 or use of tools to restructure.…
