How convenient. How cravenly and transparently political.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi herself, meanwhile, is fundraising on the back of the attack. This is the message tacked to the bottom of an email blast from her office that landed in inboxes on Saturday evening:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>To hear the media tell it, Republicans are responsible for the attack and, while Pelosi raises money in this final week, they must cry uncle. Chuck Todd noted with surprise on NBC\u2019s Meet the Press on Sunday that ads against Pelosi &#8220;are still on the air.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>Punchbowl News<\/em> on Friday suggested there was something untoward about Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and Ohio Senate candidate J.D.

When he came to this realization isn\u2019t entirely clear\u2014certainly many years after sitting in the pews listening to his friend Jeremiah Wright and cavorting with Louis Farrakhan, but not before arguing that Republicans are warmongers who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2015\/08\/07\/politics\/obama-iran-gop-comparison\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">have a lot in common with Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guard<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We know Obama\u2019s exhortation only swings one way.
