He has help>Clinton slams Bush over law enforcement By HEATHER EVANS, Associated Press Writer Aug 4, 2007 CHICAGO - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday criticized President Bush for not spending enough on law enforcement and said police officers were "invisible" to him. At a meeting of the National Association of Police Organizations, the New York senator promised more spending on police programs, including an anti-drug initiative and bulletproof vest program. "Honestly, it is like the police officers of our country, along with your families, who stand with you every single day in the dangerous and difficult work you do, are invisible to the president," she said. A spokesman for the Republican National Committee, who was in Minneapolis, said Clinton's remarks were disturbing. "On the same day the president is here in Minneapolis meeting with the first responders and police who are helping pick up the pieces of the recent I-35 bridge collapse, that she would make these comments is troubling," said Chris Taylor. "President Bush holds our policemen, firefighters and first responders in the highest regard." Taylor also criticized Clinton's participation at the YearlyKos Convention in Chicago. "It shows how far she's willing to go to pander to the far left to take a cheap shot at the president at both these venues," he said. "She's a calculating politician and, as time goes on, more Americans will see this."<
