When the systems we expect to help us actually hurt us, we have tragedy.
The responsibility of the attorney general is to change things and bring us closer to the ideals expressed in our founding documents.
Whether it is an attempt to bomb the New York City subway system, an attempt to bring down an airplane over Detroit, an attempt to set off a bomb in Times Square... I think that gives us a sense of the breadth of the challenges that we face, and the kinds of things that our enemy is trying to do.
