Sounds like when they caught Joe Biden many years ago, always a sorry excuse.

A shameless, selfish, and slovenly shyster shamelessly shills his sick, sad, and sorry self into sweet, secure sinecure through sinister scholarly shenanigans.

As a general rule, it is usually fairly obvious whether a written submission in college is a purposeful plagiarism or an unintentional omission of a citation. In Walsh’s case, it was clearly purposeful.

The Senator should feel the effects of this, but also the thesis committee of the War College: this was done in 2007, long after Turnitin.com was available, so it would have taken five minutes and a laptop to check the thesis.

Who wants a senator who has such a handy excuse for his character flaws?

Lots of people have dealt with the suicide of a friend or family member WITHOUT becoming a cheat and liars. He’s in luck - BECAUSE he’s a democrat the MSM will give him a pass.

At minimum, the Army War College should rescind the postgraduate degree. If he still has any connection with the Montana Guard, that should be ended.

I am so sick of this victim BS from cowards unwilling to admit who they are.

PTSD has been abused.

Real PTSD is traumatic. Real PTSD is when your body, literally reacts to a non existent situation. There are no bombs going off around you, but your body literally reacts as if bombs are going off around you... it is not a momentary lapse in not knowing if you are copying and pasting someone else’s work...

SHAME ON THIS ASS
