LeadingZerosays...Here's another instance of Hillary "plagiarizing", and this one from what most view as the most effective lines of her debate performance in Austin, Texas.
Bill Clinton, New Hampshire, 1992: "The hits that I took in this election are nothing compared to the hits the people of New Hampshire are taking every day." *
Hillary Clinton, February 21, 2008: "You know, the hits I've taken in life are nothing compared to what goes on every single day in the lives of people across our country."
Another Xerox moment, perhaps? Certainly a double standard. I don't really think this is plagiarism of course. She's simply borrowing an effective theme from Bill here. This would be perfectly acceptable were it not for her ridiculous attacks against Obama for using powerful speech lines from his friend and supporter Deval Patrick.
*Note: It appears that Bill Clinton used variations of this line in speeches in 1992 and in 1996.
Update: Exhibit A: http://www.videosift.com/video/Hillary-Clinton-plagiarizes-Bill-Clinton
8217says..."People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones... "
I thought the expression was "People who live in glass houses should shower in the basement."
E_Nygmasays...to plagiarize a well-known comic, how about nobody should throw stones. that's crappy behavior. my policy is no stone throwing regardless of housing situation.
