WASHINGTON — Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, who in recent weeks has had to explain a series of plagiarism charges, said in an interview Tuesday that he was being held to an unfair standard, but that there would be an office “restructuring” to prevent future occurrences.
Sitting in a conference room in his Senate office complex, Mr. Paul, drawn and clearly shaken by the plagiarism charges, offered a mix of contrition and defiance. He said that he was not certain whether it would affect his prospects should he decide to run for president in 2016 — he said he would happily return to his Kentucky doctor’s practice — and he asserted that was being unfairly targeted.

I can't decide if this is silly or pathetic, but at the very least it's embarrassing for a grown-ass man. In school plagiarism can be grounds for expulsion. What should it be for real adults in the real world?

Whatever punishment you might think appropriate, remember that Liberals plagiarize Marx,
Stalin, Hitler and others all the time.

If you're a Democrat, you eventually get elected Vice-President.http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/06/u...l-announces-office-restructuring.html?hp&_r=0

.... just so you know, Marx is basically the founding author of modern capitalist economical terms. Terms such as dividends, surplus value, division of labor etc. - all terms used in modern capitalist lingo - were all defined by him. Keynes and Smith were storybooks in comparison to Das Kapital. So in essence, every time you talk about how capitalism works, you're plagiarizing Marx.
Give us an example?
Ohferchristsake. Some conservatives, the dreck they come out with, you gotta wonder how they manage to navigate across the floor to the computer, never mind find a website.
You mean things like their constant hate speech. Their racial intolerance for white heterosexual Christian males. Their constant rhetoric about how successful white males have caused all the suffering in the world. The constant call for the purging of all non-liberal/socialist/progressives from politics, blaming them for everything bad but refusing to actually hold their own accountable.
Those kind of things?
Really, got any cool ones. Maybe we can make fun of them too. The ones on the board don't seem to throw out as much dreck as the liberals ones, so the liberals get made fun of more often.

Comes to dreck, it's hard for anyone to top...
"Liberals plagiarize Marx, Stalin, Hitler..."
I mean, imagine the thinking?

You grammar stinks and the thoughts behind it don't pass any smell tests either.Good thing then that I was addressing primarily towards leftist who are incapable of comprehending complex, adult or non-self-centered rhetoric.
