CNN: Obama plagiarizes=scandal Clinton plagiarizes=normal politics
Did anyone just hear that? After all of that crap about Obama plagiarizing Hillary does it too and now CNN says "well, it's normal for politicians to borrow lines" I guess they can't have the tone of the coverage change from how wonderful Hillary's closing statement was.


Anyone else catch that?

1. I know, I saw that too
They all said "no one cares about that' and it was ended seconds after Anderson brought it up.. Why is it when Clinton does it 'no one cares' When Obama does it with permission it is major news for a week? Grrrrr....

2. IF I am not mistaken this argument over using other persons
words without credit is really silly if you remember JFK. One of the things we really loved about him was how he used so many great quotes from old thinkers. I also do not remember him documenting their origin every time.
