Rand Paul Plagiarized Wikipedia in Speech

[JoeB131]

Everyone knows or those with a brain knows that Wiki can manipulated

Not really so much anymore.

You can edit shit in, but someone will take it out pretty quickly.

 

[Quantum Windbag]

What the fuck is wrong with you people?

You can't just lift whole sections of another work verbatim and claim it as your own.

Gawd.

Did he claim it as his own? The last time I checked with the APA citations are not included in the actual speech, just in written works.

With all the shit storms going on in this country right now, this is what Rachel Maddow is concerned about and as sure as the sun would rise, the Obamabots marched off with her orders to spread the news.

Yes, they always take out stuff that make Democrats look bad, or stuff that makes Republicans look good.

If she talks about this she doesn't have to talk about the disaster that is Obamacare.

More plaigerism. lol Paul. Seems this has happened more than once.

Another speech he gave was found, where he lifted whole segments from Wiki word for word - for another movie: Stand and Deliver.

Rand Paul Has Given Speeches Plagiarized From Wikipedia Before

As I said earlier, he's going to have to answer for this; the non-response is not going to cut it. Or paste it.

His hometown paper:
http://www.courier-journal.com/arti.../Rand-Paul-mum-after-being-accused-plagiarism

Paul’s office didn’t respond to emails seeking comment about the speeches, or whether Paul wrote them himself.But political scientists say that how Paul handles the issue could determine whether the allegations impact his potential plans for a 2016 presidential bid.

Stephen Voss, a political science professor at the University of Kentucky, said that if the error was made by a staff member, he should simply say that and then say he is keeping the staff member on and using the incident “as a teaching moment.”

His new nickname might just be Cut & Paste Paul.

Gawd.

Did he claim it was his own? Like did he say it was his own... Be very careful, you might make yourself look even stupider than you already have.

Yes. He DIDN'T cite it. Unless you cite it, you claim it as your own.

This has been discussed. All he had to do was say..according to Wiki.

Instead he lifted whole sections verbatim, Lazy and ethically wrong.

(Whoever made the claim earlier this was a chargeable offense is nutso.)

It was wrong. He'll have to answer for this. In the whole scheme, no big whoop, but he WILL need to comment further. It's going to come up.

Wanna bet it will?

He's a Republicans..and Republicans only answer to god.

 

[Politico]

Damn what does that that Rand Paul junior United States Senator for Kentucky, member of the Republican Party, and the son of former U.S. Representative and presidential candidate Ron Paul of Texas think he is doing using the same words anyone else does.

Everyone else is talking about Gattaca?

The film was a flop.

 

[paperview]

Let's not lose site of the fact in all his dishonesty, and bad movie references, that Rand is stumping for the piece of losing shit R known as The Cooch.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Yeah....why would anyone ever attack your education?

 

[skookerasbil]

How gay is this thread?


Nobody cares about this except the handful of people who watch MSNBC.

 

[skookerasbil]

But how funny is this?

People affiliate themselves with Tea Party = 42%

People who affiliate themselves with Obama = 42%

Rand Paul Plagiarized Speech From Wikipedia, Rachel Maddow Says

Yes, of course it was Paul who plagiarized Wikipedia's content. I just thought I'd save the rw's having to make up a lie to hide behind.

And, this is isn't the first time he's done it. But hey, its Rand Paul and we've come to expect lies from him. This makes him the perfect rw candidate for damn near anything.

Rand's speech writer is responsible .. Rand just read them from the teleprompter.

Naw.

Only President Obama uses a teleprompter.

(**wink**wink**)

If a Dem had plagerized from Wikipedia or quoted from it and identified the source of the quote, there would be no end to screeching about Wikipedia not being credible.

Since its a teepotty, he wrote it himself and its perfectly credible.

Which is all just another way of saying the human pretzels on the right are INcredible.
