Melania Trump plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech
 

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/0...e-obama-225794

Well if that is the case Michelle Obama plagiarized my mother, father, aunts Uncles, Coaches and nearly all of my teachers because basically isn't that the tenant of the values every single one of us was raised with? Study hard, play fair, treat others as you wish to be treated...... Unfortunately these values no longer hold any meaning. "Just Win Baby" has become the marching orders. Nothing like the Medias #RushToHate

There is no bigger supporter than I (well, maybe Richard if his pants aren't still around his ankles) but this looks bad.

It pains me to say it, but something is going on.

They need to expose the speechwriter who blatantly stole this as a way to embarrass Trump & Melania.

There is simply no other rational explanation.

The side by side comparison is damning in my mind's eye:

You are serious?

did you see the side by side video?

I did but how many ways are there to give the same message that we have all heard hundreds of times without in some cases using the same wording..

I agree with jms on this ....but Dan you have it right also "it looks bad"...the media just loves sh*t like this....while Rome burns they will dwell on this for months.

I thought Rudy did a great job.

I get what you are saying - it is the specific wording, with the specific phrasing that is baffling to me.

Further to your point, we are talking about maybe 30 seconds of a 5 minute speech - not like they lifted entire talking points word for word.

I honestly didnt watch or dont even care at this point. I think this country is f.ucked with a capital F regardless.

That being said, its amazing that in this country Plagiarism by a potential first lady, is a bigger deal than an e-mail scandal with national security implications by a presidential candidate. The entire world is coming off its hinges and this is what the media focuses on.

2ND DEGREE BURN - the college degree ?

Maybe the Trade Mark I applied for on #RushToHate may eventually pay dividends.

didn't watch either, and don't get why her speech is the big headline on sites.
there are plenty of bigger issues than her stupid speech. and others who spoke blatantly lied from what I'm seeing so far...but yeah, let's worry about what someone's spouse had to say, someone who would have nothing whatsoever to do with policies. as for her education...again, who cares?
of course, this is a country where people care about kim kardashian's life.

You mean..kinda' like Nancy Reagan;)

yeah.
I didn't get that then, and don't get this now.

my big beef--trump playing a queen song for his entrance!! the irony is just amazing. :D

Oh, no . . . This is so bad for Trump!

Does Queen know he used their song? That's the bigger question..especially if Freddie wrote it

poor Freddie. but he was probably rolling over in his grave.

Right after these ##FamousMeleniaTrumpQuotes

According to the official Queen twitter account and the twitter accounts of Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon (the surviving members) it would seem that you two are the only ones ghastly appalled thus far.

Poor Freddie, rolling around in his grave and whatnot.

Big named celebrities last night. Not too good when Chachi is your headliner lol

First World problem, I agree, but Republicans have made a habit of copyright infringement and then pulling song after artist threatens to sue.

Almost as if on cue:

He should just come out to American Bad Ass - Kid Rock is a fan

hell, I was being facetious anyway. thought it was an odd choice that a homophobe would use a song sung by a bisexual. it was a 'whaaaat?' moment.

knickslions....trump sure won't reach anyone under the age of 50 with that 'star'!!

Cat Scratch Fever

Queen’s guitarist Brian May said in June, after Trump used the anthem to mark his victory in the final round of Republican primaries, that Queen was “taking advice on what steps we can take to ensure this use does not continue.”

“Regardless of our views on Mr. Trump’s platform, it has always been against out policy to allow Queen music to be used as a political campaigning tool,” he added.


that's from an article talking about this:





Gavin Newsom (lt governor of California)
15 hours ago.

It's important to note that tonight's RNC convention ended with a song, We Are the Champions, sung by a gay man, Freddie Mercury. Freddie Mercury died of AIDS in 1991. His music was played at a convention where the most anti-LGBT policy platform was adopted, just today. His music, which he famously labored over, which was intricate and complex, was played at a convention where Mike Pence, a man who has spent his political career actively looking for opportunities to pass laws that would give others the legal framework to discriminate against LGBT people, sat comfortably in a VIP box. I'm not sure what Freddie Mercury would think of his music being played at the RNC convention, but I do know that if he weren't a famous rockstar, he would have probably been greeted by a wall, a really high wall, because he represented everything that Mike Pence and Donald Trump are scared of.

Bush won in 2000, virtue of his brother's state (no recount and hanging chad ballots and of course SCOTUS:mad:)

Thanks. I must have missed that.

I laughed !

In case you missed this too:):):)

Douche Limbaugh suggests sabotage. It could be possible! I mean how f'n stupid can you be to steal HER exact language.


but she is still damn good to look at.:)

If you want Ted Nugent just show him something you killed with a bow and arrow and he will be on board.

:D:D
