Obama Caught Plagiarizing? (Video)
Primetime Politics ^ | February 18, 2008 | Patrick, Obama

Posted on 02/18/2008 6:33:09 AM PST by Nony

Barack Obama's speech in Wisconsin this past Saturday sounds awfully similary to a speech given by Deval Patrick in October 2006. Video of both is here.

Joe Bidens’ speech was egregious because he was telling a “personal” story that was lifted word for word from the Brit Pol. He couldn’t claim a speechwriter picked up a few phrases from another speech.

If there is evidence Obama plagiarized, it will be ignored by the MSM. (anyone got Captain Obvious?)

Obama and Patrick are buds, they probably had the same instructor at the Saul Alinsky Institute for Engineered Consensus and Campaigns.

wait until someone figures out what he did in college - i guarantee that he did not spend all his time in the library as he claims. How can you be the pres of harvard law review and not know that the difference between the exec branch and the judiciary - he was recently caught with his foot in his mouth over a policy he attributed to Bush when it was anything but. - cant remember the details.

Obama has communist phrases LITERALLY thoughout his stump speech and the media ignores it.

Obama wants a national 7% tax TO TURN THAT MONEY OVER THE THE UN, and the media ignores it.

Some of it sounds awfully similar to a speech given by Karl Marx in 1872, but it loses a little in its translation from the original German.

Obama has the same writer as Patrick did. They have already addressed this as “sharing”. Clinton is behind the plagiarism charges.

This story aired last night on ABC I think. They didn’t do a very good job but they covered it.

Copies Patrick’s speeches, Sinatra’s fake fainters, and Larry Craig’s sexual habits.
