Nothing coming from the minds in control at the GOP surprises me anymore. They used the 9/11 attacks for political gain, and now they are going back to the same playbook with the foiled London airplane attacks.
Even the timing of the so-called low level staffer email is in question. The email asking for donations went out just hours before the information on the foiled attack was released to the press.
Once again, the Republican Party gets caught with its hand in the corrupted cookie jar. Just another day of business as usual, it seems.
Democrats assailed the Republicans Friday for e-mailing a fundraising appeal mentioning the war on terror hours after British authorities disclosed they had disrupted a plot to blow up aircraft headed to the United States.
"In the middle of a war on terror, we need to remain focused on furthering Republican ideas more than ever before," former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani said in a letter that asked for donations to the Republican National Committee.
The RNC blamed a low-level staffer for distributing the fundraising appeal, which the party said had been scheduled for release before news of the plot broke.
"Once the RNC learned of this error we ceased distribution of the e-mail," said Tracey Schmitt, a party spokeswoman.
Democrats didn't accept the explanation.
