So PTSD is helping him in office?
Keep diggin’ that hole...
Another Obama-style, “You didn’t do that!” moment. Always blame somebody or something else when YOU screw up!
I’m SHOCKED that “Democrat” is mentioned in this story.
All other stories I’ve seen on this it’s not mentioned or it’s buried deep in the story. Remember, most newspaper ‘readers’ don’t go past the first couple paragraphs.
Nice dis...
“In recent memory, Sen. Rand Paul, a Republican from Kentucky, was the last prominent politician to be in hot water for plagiarism. As It’s All Politics reported, Paul was accused of lifting language from Wikipedia and news articles for several speeches.”
His harddrive crashed and he was pushed for time to complete his paperwork.
The liberal spin:
“PTSD caused me to commit plagiarism.. and while that is true, if the Republicans wouldn’t stand in the way of funding for veterans’ mental health care, PTSD would not be the problem it is now... all the more reason Montanans should send me to the Senate to fix that mess.”
That, and, being on a secret waiting list at the VA.
It was the Strawberries!!!
Dem Rat. He should be excoriated.
Oh. Well, okay then.
Sounds more like this ninny suffers from PMSD.

Global warming probably played a role in it too.
As someone that teaches comp. at the college level, YEAH RIGHT.
A plagiarist is too lazy to even paraphrase the material to make it their own verbally. This guy knew what he was doing and took the easy way out.
If PTSD pushes him to do unethical, immoral and dishonest things, then he had better disqualify himself from running for office. If PTSD pushes him to do things that he would not otherwise do, then perhaps he should withdraw from the race. One can never tell what this sickness will have him doing next.
Walsh is a liar and a cheater and a thief. He lies to try and cover for previous lies.
The suicide that he says caused his alleged PTSD didn’t happen in Iraq in the combat zone. It happened two years after the unit returned to Montana. Was Walsh really close to the guy that killed himself? Look it up. Maybe PTSD is a code word for “feeling guilty” in this case.
Walsh’s job when he was at the War College was to be a student. That’s what he was being paid to do. Students have to write papers to show mastery of a subject. Using someone else’s paper proves that Walsh couldn’t master the subject. It also proves that he couldn’t do his job.
You don’t suddenly hit the War College and show a complete lack of ethics. This would have been displayed throughout his 33 year career with the Montana National Guard. What kind of people could have looked the other way at his lying and cheating and stealing and then promote him? I guess it would be people just like Walsh. Shameful.
If this doesn’t work, he’ll try the “IRS lost my research” defense.
