Remember, though, that Obama was accused of plagiarism for using a paragraph spoken first by Deval Patrick, even though Patrick said that he had willingly shared that prose with his friend. That story was covered extensively, especially by the traditional right-wing press, even though there was no possibility of it being true. McCain clearly lifted text without attribution. If you want to pull a typical Republican word play ("It's not a recession; it's a tough period"), then be my guest. -- Ed Leafe _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/%(listmsgid)s ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
