An academic researcher has found 11 passages in Senator Kerry's published writings that appear to have been taken from other works without attribution, though experts disagree about whether the copying should be considered plagiarism.
Six of the passages come from Mr. Kerry's 1997 book, "The New War: The Web of Crime That Threatens America's National Security." All bear some similarity to news accounts that preceded publication of the book.

He must have plagiarized from Joe Biden, no doubt.

I think he is a chronic pathological liar! No doubt about it. He has totally made up his life and it is all falling apart.
The dems could not have picked a worse candidate.

The Sun has been brutal to Kerry today. First, he's a traitor and now he's a plagiarist to boot.
It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. /sarcasm
To: TFine80
This is a suprise? He's plagiarized most of his Iraq rhetoric from Howard Dean.

The explanation for plagiarism these day (such as that at Harvard recently) is, "I didn't supervise my research assistant adequately."
In other words, the authors aren't actually writing the books. The research assistants (or ghost writers) are. The author is only safe from plagiarism if he has a good research assistant. If the author doesn't have the time or inclination to write his own stuff, he obviously is not going to independently verify what his research assistant tells him. So a lot of "authors" end up with passages that research assistants, lacking judgment, copied too closely from another document, without attribution.

Kerry's plagiarism is not a surprise. The guy feels like he's entitled to others' work. He rips off headlines daily to attack President Bush.
He clearly has no values. He lies, steals, cheats and encourages his supporters to act like him.

How can there even be one living person who supports Kerry?
I honestly say this aside from his political standpoints.

Plagiarism is almost becoming a badge of honor for Democrats: Joe Biden, Laurence Tribe, Doris Kearns Goodwin, ..., John Kerry.
