In a recent speech at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, Senator Hillary Clinton said that the Bush administration was failing to make the nation safe, linking the President’s efforts to cut taxes with what she described as a neglect of homeland security. Speaking to reporters on Jan. 28, shortly before the State of the Union address, she reiterated the theme: "Our priorities must be national security, homeland security and economic security, and on those three measures the proposals that the President has made … are not going to work," she said. "It worries me that we’re not setting our priorities to deal with the most important issues facing the country now. -----“

Edwards targets domestic security
By JOHN WAGNER, Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON -- U.S. Sen. John Edwards today will pointedly accuse the Bush administration of doing too little to protect the country against future terrorist attacks and outline a series of initiatives that he says would reduce the risk. "It is time for all of us, without regard to party, to say what every American knows: Washington is not doing enough to make America safe," Edwards says in a draft of a speech he is scheduled to deliver at a Washington think tank. "If the administration continues to do too little, it will be too late again. We must do better." The North Carolina Democrat's proposals include billions in new spending to better equip police departments across the country, to step up border patrols, to increase security at nuclear and chemical plants and to develop a new warning system for the public. He will repeat his call, first voiced in October, to create a new domestic intelligence agency. -----“
