John McCain Is Apparently A Plagiarist, Too

If you remember, coming out of the Potomac Primaries, the Clinton campaign promised an increase focus on specifics over speeches, which is why they have gone after the specific issue of the evil plagiarism ring that Barack Obama set up a year ago, naively believing that he could get away with using his friend Deval Patrick's words armed with nothing more than the legal fig leaf of Patrick's tacit permission and support:

"The argument in question, on the value of words in the public square, is one about which he and I have spoken frequently before. Given the recent attacks from Senator Clinton, I applaud him responding in just the way he did."

Surely there is nothing but the sincerest motives behind the frenzy to impugn Obama with plagiarism charges and defend Patrick, the governor of a state that has successfully passed the Clinton campaign litmus test for "importance." But, having stood up for Patrick, one wonders: when will Senator Clinton stand up for herself? Because right this very minute, over at John McCain's campaign website, the Arizona Senator is totally jacking her signature line:

Horrors! Clearly, only one of these candidates can truly be Ready On Day One, and you'd think this would be an issue Clinton could win on because when did McCain become such a lover of timetables? Flip-flop! Anyway, this issue is so absolutely not a silly one at all, and just to prove that, I am officially copyrighting and trademarking the term "superdelegate" as of this very minute. So get a new term, media, or pay what you owe!

And ehere is the best friend of John McCain... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIbdnM8Ts88 talking about the economy.

I didn't care before, but now I want to know.

DID Hillary write "It Takes A Village" by herself? And, if it was ghosted, written with no credit given to the REAL author, doesn't that go against everything she holds dear?

She's all about not using phrases from a friend's speech. How about not MISREPRESENTING someone else's BOOK as being your own writing?

And McCain actually stole Hillary's "Ready to Lead on Day One!" That's too funny.

Now I'm waiting to hear her outrage over that. Waiting...­.waiting..­..waiting.­....

[lynnn]

Can't wait till McCain takes Hillary's Yes WE Will. I'll die laughing..­..well not really but he looks like he would die trying.

Oh I made a joke about McInane I'm bad ; )

Just too funny!

McWar just can't stay out of trouble for even

a minute!

It is too bad his loved ones did not convince him to get out of this campaign. Retire. Enjoy life.

The guy looks ill.

And mentally, he is far from sharp.

This whole thing is stupid if Wisconsin falls for this as some kind of prove that Obama is a fraud than that's on them. On NBC and ABC they showed Clinton "borrowing words" from both Obama and Edwards as well as her husband Bill. Please..I thought she was in the "business of solutions" if Obama can get thru this than he will be better off and better suited in November.

What happens when Hillary gets desperate? 80% of the weekend news cycle turns negative. She forces other campaigns to respond to accusations. This further pushes everyone further away from what exactly? Oh yes, the issues. She claimed she wanted specifics and Obama provided them. Now that she can't win any other way, she goes negative in hopes of riling up her base while hoping that others become disinterested and go back into the apathetic category. She wants an exhausted and inattentive electorate.

WIsconsin, Hawaii, Vermont, RI, Ohio & Texas, please don't fall for it.

Rumor has it that Rudy The Rat will sue for breach of copyright!

Just how pathetic and laughable can these people get?
Are they not too old to be behaving like children?
