So, on Wednesday, Dick Cheney launched his rant about "Al Qaeda" types knowing that the terror plot was going to be announced the next day. Yet, on Thursday, over at the RNC, it was just a "low-level staffer" who launched the same kind of rant in a fundraising email:
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.Sure, "low-level." Just like Cheney's low-level at the White House.
"Once the RNC learned of this error we ceased distribution of the e-mail," said Tracey Schmitt, a party spokeswoman.
Again, we ask: did someone at the White House tell the RNC about the terror plot in advance? Looks like they did. That says a lot about the Bush White House. They think of terrorism in political terms instead of putting national security first.
