A duel? A friggin' duel? Do these people not read history or does Rand Paul think he'll be a hero in the eyes of the public like Aaron Burr?
Society moved away from dueling as a tactic of bullies and dirtbags Mr. Paul. Learn.
First I am not a Rand Paul fan but.
Did he do anything other than take a few lines to describe the plot of Gattaca in a fairly long speech?
Find me a politician who does not do this from time to time.
Rare Truth already linked to the story, but I just wanted to post another link in light of quadraginta and Tricky's posts. How is he going to pass this buck to his flunkies? He's not. In this case he claims that the work being 1/100th of 1/2 of 1/3 of the government is so hectic and stressful, he couldn't write an editorial without plagiarizing an entire paragraph. And this guy wants to be president.

Sen. Rand Paul's office on Tuesday admitted in a statement that some of the Kentucky senator's speeches were poorly sourced and not properly vetted, after several news reports accused him of plagiarism.
Doug Stafford, Paul's senior advisor, said that the senator always uses his own ideas, b ut relies on staff to provide support. "Sen. Paul also relies on a large number of staff and advisers to provide supporting facts and anecdotes – some of which were not clearly sourced or vetted properly," Stafford said in the statement.
More ****. Fan. Spraying.....thmppttttpppptttt
Washington Times ends Sen. Rand Paul column amid plagiarism allegations: http://goo.gl/G5zMb0
Quote:
The Washington Times said Tuesday it had independently reviewed Mr. Paul’s columns and op-eds and published a correction to one column on Sept. 20 in which the senator had failed to attribute a passage that first appeared in Forbes.
The newspaper and the senator mutually agreed to end his weekly column, which has appeared on each Friday in the newspaper since the summer.

When you've lost the Moonies,....Yow. Holy Paularoni!
Is there a Wikipedia page that lists incidents of Wikipedia plagiarism?
Rachel Maddow documents is quite thoroughly.
Obviously the Washington Times are haters
Maddow better stay clear of windows or Paul might defenestrate her.
A defenestration duel. That would be way cool.
I'd put my money on Rachael for the win.
That's 'cause she's a hater. Only haters are evil enough to document their criticisms.

and on knowing what it means without needing someone to look it up for her.
Not seeing the scandal here. Does plagiarism make one unfit for high public office?
Correct. It's his response to being outed and his attempts at cover-up which make him unfit for office.MattusMaximus said:Not seeing the scandal here. Does plagiarism make one unfit for high public office?
No.

Oh, that's lame. Maddow documents Rand's various plagiarisms thoroughly. The record speaks for itself. He's a thief.
