I don't think anybody wants to mimic anything at all, in any way about that monster. Good grief! She's the one reason I feel sorry for Obunga. He lives in fear of her smacking him around every night. Glad to see another dem in here to help shore up the failing members and their bizarro world postings. Maybe you aren't a brainless squid like the rest of them. Time will tell....and right now, I think I see tentacles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell....and right now, I think I see tentacles. What you think has nothing to do with the reality of the speech writers thinking and plagiarizing to verbatim what they saw as a strong message delivered by Michelle. BTW, it was a Twitter user who discovered the plagiarizing. Quote Here are the relevant passages. Mrs. Trump, Monday night: “From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life, that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise, that you treat people with respect. They taught and showed me values and morals in their daily lives. That is a lesson that I continue to pass along to our son. And we need to pass those lessons on to the many generations to follow. Because we want our children in this nation to know that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them.” Mrs. Obama, in her 2008 speech: “Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you’re going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don’t know them, and even if you don’t agree with them. And Barack and I set out to build lives guided by these values, and pass them onto the next generation. Because we want our children — and all children in this nation — to know that the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work for them. Mrs. Trump: “I was born in Slovenia, a small, beautiful and then-communist country in Central Europe. My sister, Ines, who is an incredible woman and a friend, and I were raised by my wonderful parents. My elegant and hardworking mother, Amalija, introduced me to fashion and beauty. My father, Viktor, instilled in me a passion for business and travel. Theirintegrity, compassion and intelligence reflects to this day on me and for my love of family and America.” Mrs. Obama in 2008: “And I come here as a daughter — raised on the South Side of Chicago by a father who was a blue-collar city worker and a mother who stayed at home with my brother and me. My mother’s love has always been a sustaining force for our family, and one of my greatest joys is seeing her integrity, her compassion and her intelligence reflected in my own daughters.” Jarrett Hill, a Twitter user whose biography describes him as an interior designer and journalist, apparently first noticed the resemblance between Mrs. Trump’s speech and Mrs. Obama’s in 2008 http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/melania-trump’s-speech-bears-striking-similarities-to-michelle-obama’s-2008-address/ar-BBuugmx .

Zambroski Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 All of these speeches are so generic with hundreds of years of quotes and quips being copied. Who cares. Same key words in all of them. Ever read resumes? They all have the same fucking summary lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speech writers and fact checkers in hot water after speech mirrors Obama's. Not making it as if she intentionally or knowingly used her words.

02sled Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) 29 minutes ago, Cold War said: Lmao, when it was coming out of her mouth last night.... SHE didn't write that!!!!!!! Now, she owns it. You really think that any politician writes their own speeches or in this case their spouse. They all have someone else write them for them. There are only so many ways you can communicate a message. If you want to deliver a message that happens to be the same message as someone else how many ways are there to rearrange those words for example when you want to talk about your values.

No politician writes their own speeches and using bits of passages in a speech is not plagiarism. Lots of desperation. I bet Michelle didn't even remember what someone else wrote for her to say.
