Now please correct me if my 4th grade English lesson was not accurate..but doesn’t plagiarism mean when someone takes words from someone else and use them as their own without giving that person any credit...Sarah not only said Newt’s name FIVE different times, but actually said “I read Newt Gingrich said this about Ronald Reagan” she said that repeatedly..that isn’t plagiarism, that’s acknowledging the guy..WOW the left are so freakin retarded..when Ann Coulter said liberalism was a mental illness SHE WAS RIGHT..these people are SICK

Yo, you morons - Palin said twice in her speech that she was paraphrasing Newt’s article. It isn’t plagarism if the original source is attributed, but don’t let that stop the Palin-bashers.

If she acknowledged that the speech was taken from an article written by Newt then she IN NO WAY plagiarized ANYBODY.

Plagiarism
1. the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one’s own original work.
2. something used and represented in this manner.

Sarah Palin Plagiarizes Newt Gingrich ... She even acknowledged, "Recently, Newt Gingrich, he had written a good article about Reagan".

Only our Sarah could attribute her words to Newt and still be guilty of plagiarizing from Newt. The left hates her! [I haven't firmly decided my vote, but that is another good reason to support Governor Palin.]

Reagan, Palin, Gingrich: They all say the same things about bad democrat / communist ideas. What is the problem?

Palin: Remember this? His vision for the Cold War? We win, they lose.

Gingrich/Shirley: On the inevitability of the Soviet Union, Reagan responded with a then shocking vision for the Cold War — “we win, they lose.”

Seems like both are quoting Reagan.

This piece didn't happen to be written by Carl Cameron, did it? SHEESH, I just got through reading the childish stuff about how Palin is planning to upstage Mr. Newt at the NRSC, some *insider* charge -- these people are so dang foolish, it's truly pathetic.

She cited Gingrich five times according to her lawyer, not two that the liberals state.

This was written by a David Knowles, sounds like Sarah Palin isn’t one of his favorites.

It is not good form to use another person's ideas and especially the expression of those ideas without acknowledgment.

Robert Hook published Newton's laws of motion, without attribution. Of course, Hook published them nine years before Newton, so attribution would have required prescience on Hook's part. Hook bore a life-long grudge against Newton for not acknowledging his contribution to “Newton's Laws”. In fact the whole apple falling from a tree story may have been an invention by Newton, since the episode occurred years before Hook's book.

Someday, somehow, at some point, the sea of imbeciles in this country of ours simply must wake up.

Right?

“Ask not what your country can do for you...”

Visit the Kennedy website there’s some great stuff on this phrase. I thought it originated during WW1, but apparently the earliest reference they found was the mid-1800’s.
