This article is so unprofessional, and the Huff Post is even more unprofessional for noting that the article was retracted by Think Progress without noting why. It shows that you are not about discussing real facts, but just venting for feelings.

It's OK to not like McCain. I don't like McCain. But you look like a fool when you make claims that are false.

In 1995, McCain made a speech in which he used the subject words/phrases/sentences/ideas. In 1996, Adm Ziemer re-used those same words, quoting McCain. This is verifiable. It is easy to find if you take a few moments.

Dont you all feel like fools now that the truth about this has been exposed?

Good for him.

It's really hard to see how this could NOT be plagiarized. After all, this guy made a joke out of bombing Iran, he told people he wanted the US presence in Iraq for a 100 years. He's directly contradicted his own statements, including his serious ones. A vote for McCain is a vote to kill human beings. War kills people. That is an unavoidable fact. Even if you're voting for McCain to get back at the Democratic nominee that you didn't like, you're voting to kill people. We can't absolutely trust the Democratic candidates, but by all accounts, they've given their word that they're going to try and stop this mess. THAT is a vote for saving lives. Those who do not vote should have a very incredibly good reason for not voting to save lives.

WOW, HE'S LIKE OBAMA.

Too bad Obamites can't say a damned thing about this. Remember? They defined-down plagiarism to mean it's cool if (a) it's a buddy who doesn't seem to mind if you rip off their words and (b) you change a few words around. After all, they're just words.

I'm sure Rear Admiral Ziemer won't mind that McCain borrowed his words, so we can all just move along now.....

If McCain had permission from Rear Adm. Ziemer, then it's not plagiarism. If Rear Adm. Ziemer didn't authorize McCain to use his words, then McCain is in deep doo.

I really, really can't wait until he falls all over himself trying to debate Obama.

I thought his campaign slogan was, "FOUR MORE YEARS." Since his domestic and foreign policies are recycled, why shouldn't his speeches be re-runs, as well.

Brilliant:

Asked negotiating with certain foreign leaders such as Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Obama said:
"I think people understand the notion of talking to our enemies," Obama said. "If FDR can meet with Stalin and Nixon can meet with Mao and Kennedy can meet with Khrushchev and Reagan can meet with Gorbechav, then the notion that we can"t meet with some half-baked dictator is ridiculous."
"I"m not worried about losing a propaganda war with Ahmadinejad," he said, "That guy opens his mouth and I think people see there are problems there."

McCain: the false bravado of W, the senility of Reagan, the morals of Nixon. What more could you ask?

that's cheating... my friends. so we have hillary the cheater and the liar and g-mac the cheater and the liar and the duybyuh hugger.... aaaaaaaa... who cares... rednecks LOVE them some idiots.

This is all the product of some vast left-wing conspiracy.

From the article's comments; all Ziemers disease...how funny.

It appears that McBomb won the Reagan likeness competition

they had in the GOP's primary race, the later Reagan years??

Gbecker you are right..
