and as we near the anniversary of 9/11, mike rogers and senate homeland security chairman joe lieberman and all things political with peter baker of the "new york times" and mike duffy of "time" magazine. i'm candy crawley, and this is "state of the union." first, president obama is going to unveil his new jobs plan on thursday, and it's a critical speech with the disappointing jobs numbers we saw come out a few days ago, and we see who could benefit right away. he is not always a republican establishment favorite but holds sway in the tea party and the tea party may hold sway in the primaries. his event will be well attend and closely watched. he is joining me from clemson, south carolina. thank you so much for taking time out. i want to start off talking about jobs. and what is in the jobs plan and what cannot be in it? >> i spent the month of august visiting businesses, manufacturing plants. i have been on shop floors. i have talked to a lot of the companies that create jobs in south carolina and across the country. what they want is less regulation. they just keep talking about the

joining me is chairman joe lieberman, and house intelligence committeeman mike rogers. here. it's a bit of a scary anniversary, but what i wanted to ask you first, we hear no specific credible threats. do you both feel reasonably sure that we are safe on this -- particularly in new york and washington on this anniversary. >> i believe we are safer, but there are still plenty of folks that get up every single morning with the sole intention of planning, conducting and financing an operation against the united states. i do believe with all the action taken over the last ten years, we're safer. >> i agree. part of the anniversary is to look back, and i think if you look back the american people and the american government have a lot to feel proud about. we really transformed ourselves to meet the new threat of islamic terrorism. i don't think anybody on september 12, 2001, would have predicted in the following ten years there would not be another major terrorists attack on the homeland, and there has not been. the enemy has secured no major gains in their worldwide effort
