Boy are you Republicans in trouble at this point. Never thought they would be ignorant enough to nominate that thing...well, there you go. Didn't even get past the convention...congratulations.

Well, hopefully the hateful, shallow lefties can get back to concentrating on - sm

The mistake was very minor, has been committed repeatedly by others - much more egregiously - AND

Trump did not accept her resignation, saying that people make mistakes, live and learn from them.

I'll take that kind of President, thank you.

"....committed repeatedly by others much more egregiously" - especially on the left!! Enough already.

It's gotten downright silly now and you're not going to get the slightest bit of traction out of it, so try taking up whatever your substantive disagreements are with Trump, conservatives, or whatever - assuming you're able to articulate them.

Quotes would have helped and situation would have been - anonie

I don't think it would have been accepted if Melania...sm - VTMT

had said she was quoting Michele Obama and that she admired her. However, I must say that I feel very sorry for her because closer attention should have been paid to the speech she would be giving at a national convention. There would have been no cause for embarrassment or futile denials if more care was given to the poor woman's speech. The only blame I direct toward her is she said she wrote the entire speech with very little help. That ended up not to be true. Bottom line, now we know Melania Trump greatly admires Michelle Obama.

She didn't admit to plagarizing MOs speech - Besides...sm

She never admitted to plagarizing her speech. In a phone interview Melania spoke with the speech writer and gave her the passages of what it was like growing up for her. The speech writer never went and checked MOs speech to see if it was the same thing. An honest mistake. And you know what the reaction was when she went to resign. Donald refused to accept her resignation and told her it was an honest mistake. Another proof of evidence of what a decent man he is. I can tell you it's easy to do (saying similar things) because talking with my coworker I've said in the past that I grew up with those same family values. There is a pretty big difference thought. What MO said in her speech was a lie. She didn't grow up with those values because she has never followed them or instilled them in the 2 girls.

Besides...looks like MO did some plagarizing of her own in that speech. Some from Steven Covey, but mostly from Saul Alinsky in Rules for Radicals. You know who also plagarized...Obama himself, Biden, Warren, and Hillary.

So no, don't care if Melania said some of the same things MO did. I've said the same things long before any of them said them. It's not plagarism

The official transcript relates: There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me — because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t — look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Le ...

Michael Tomasky (left): Speech was dull, pedestrian, overconfident. Charles Krauthamer (right): Empty, meaningless, deceptive. Numbers pulled out of thin air as empty promises - e.g., he's to create x number of (teaching, green, whatever) jobs but not the slightest idea how.

By Ramesh Ponnuru "I count three ways President Barack Obama's speech on immigration last night contradicted itself. First, there was the absolutist language he used to justify his policy -- coupled with restrictions that aren't compatible with such language. The argument Obama made for his policy of offering legal status to millions of illegal immigrants was highly moralistic: We're not supposed to rip apart families, we can't deny people "a chance to make amends" and ...

Some very interesting info in this article. President Barack Obama misrepresented the House Republicans’ budget plan at times and exaggerated its impact on U.S. residents during an April 13 speech on deficit reduction. Obama claimed the Republicans’ "Path to Prosperity" plan would cause "up to 50 million Americans … to lose their health insurance.” But that worst-case figure is based in part on speculation and assumptions. He said the GOP plan would repla ...

For the simple fact so many posters on this board claim Romney has no budget. Maybe it was another Obama "composite". Maybe Debbie Wasserman Schultz is dropping the ball on getting out the info to the devoted few (she did an interview on 08/12 slamming Romney budget). What do they know that the devotees on this board do not? Are these 2, Obama and DWS, lying again/still, or is it posters so consumed with getting out misleading info they are not following their l ...

Obama Secretly Signs No Free Speech Bill Long gone may the days be where the people of the United States have the right to express themselves freely under the First Amendment.

Leaving aside passages in which he quoted a Chicago pub owner and a letter from a citizen from Georgia, President Barack Obama used the first person singular—including the pronouns “I” and “me” and the adjective “my”—91 times in a speech he delivered in Chicago Tuesday to explain his unilateral action on immigration. But as often as Obama used “I,” “me” and “my” in Chicago this week, it was no match for the ...

While there are plenty of Bible verses to mention while discussing immigration, President Obama on Tuesday quoted one which isn't so great, mainly because it's not real. "The good book says don't throw stones at glass houses, or make sure we're looking at the log in our eye before we are pointing out the moat in other folks eyes," Obama said during a speech in Nashville. One problem, though: The Bible never mentions glass houses. In addition to his b ...

I'm surprised no one on this board commented on it yet. I watched it and he seems pretty pi$$ed. I just hope he really means what he said this time. As he said, it is his responsibility. Maybe now he will stop blaming the former administration and focus on being a president instead of a puppet. The only problem I see is that talk is cheap. Implementation of what his plans are for the terrorist problem has yet to be seen. I did miss the press conference between Homeland Security ...
