…thoughts on plagiarism
February 22, 2008 – 12:44 pmseriously, if i hear one more person talk about how obama is a chump for using some quotes from another guys speech, especially when those people think that hillary is in the right for attacking obama on it… i’m going to lose my mind.
the whole idea is flat out stupid. see for yourself how far the plagiarism topic will get you…
so far i count two for me, zero for hillary fans.
hillary does not have more elected official experience than barack.
hillary is an idiot for calling out someone on plagiarism.

ABC News is the one who labeled it as “plagiarism”, they based their reporting on a previous report from the Boston Globe. If you prefer to call it “copying with permission” it’s still not his words or originally written for him. Granted with as many political races that we’ve had in this country, it’s hard to find original material anymore. Yet if it’s not supposed to be such a big deal, it’s ironic that the Obama campaign accused Hillary of copying a part of a sentence from the John Edwards campaign. At times it feels like a giant immature game of tattle tale, “OMG Mom he did that! Well…She did that!”
I actually thought the Clinton statement was a funny one, but it’s obvious some of us have a different sense of humor.
