The Republicans are feeling the heat from Democrats for sending out a fundraising appeal based on the War on Terror on the same day as the revelation of the Liquid Bomb Plot. As Markos points out, the Dems are no longer cringing when the Republicans yell "Soft on Terror!".

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.

"The defeat of the London plot is a warning that we should redouble our efforts to defeat terrorism. It shouldn't be used as a political defibrillator by Republicans on electoral life support," said Phil Singer, a spokesman for the Senate Democrats' campaign committee.

A+ to Mr. Singer for such great imagery.
