Sarah Palin Didn't 'Plagiarize'
Grow up, liberals. Sarah Palin gave a 15-minute introduction to Michael Reagan at some event last week, and the HuffPo has discovered that some of the words she used belong to Newt Gingrich!
So you can go through her terrible speech and read some old Gingrich op-ed and painstakingly find every sentence or phrase that rings similar, if you want, and cry "plagiarism!" But we gave up on that once we read this bit of Palin's speech: "Recently, Newt Gingrich, he had written a good article about Reagan...." She then goes on to summarize many of the things Newt Gingrich wrote about Ronald Reagan.
So, yes, it is not by any standard a very good speech, and it is quite lazy, but to call it "plagiarism" is bullshit.
