Of course, being believers in the literal truth of the bible, they will point out that it doesn’t say “Thou shalt not plagiarize.” Nor does it say “Thou shalt not return merchandise falsely.”

Or he could be trolling public restrooms or hustling teenage boys or….. you get my drift.

Why is it the fumbledicks always gets the manna? Riddle me that, funny man.

I want some manna, fuck it, if it was good enough EzekeMosesAbeSaraBeelzebub, it’s good enough for me.

What wine would you recommend with manna?

Normally we would say that Tim would be leaving to spend more time with his (or Scooter Libby’s) family but in this case I figure God will forgive him and then the wingnut welfare will rain down upon him like manna from heaven. I mean, it’s not like he was tweaking with gay hookers while wearing two wetsuits with a dildo hanging out of his butt… but, then again, it is Friday night and the evening is young.

I am totally the most original and bestest blogger in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As the bumper sticker says, Christians aren’t perfect. And since they’re forgiven, they really don’t have to be, do they?

I wonder just how many of these plagiarizers there are out there. Somebody should write a computer program to check everything ever written by these people, because I bet they are legion. It can’t be easy trying to write something original when you cannot ever deviate from the same approved talking points as the rest of the Borg.

Gotta hand it Goeglin. Nothing subtle about his plagarism. Suprised he didn’t just cut out the Dartmouth articles, paste them to poster board, and mail them to his editor. And as far as Allen goes, I defy you heathens to show me where in the Decalogue it says Thou Shall Not select a $237 Kodak printer, pay for it with your Visa card and hours later obtain a refund at a Target store in Germantown for an identical printer.

Nail, meet sophronia. Sophronia..nail.

Yes, professing your acceptance of HaySoos will pretty much erase something as small as an airport bathroom escapade or something slightly bigger like lying to an entire nation as to why you started a war which resulted in massive death and human suffering.

I believe it’s “thy shalt not covet thy neighbor’s prose.”

And, a sauvgignon blanc goes lovely with manna. Being in the northeast right now, I could only wish it were manna that I’m watching fall from the sky.

As the saying goes (I read in in Patrick O’Brian, but I’m sure it’s a commonplace)(just to keep my attributions clear): “Without sin there can be no forgiveness.”

But I have to wonder: Why? Why did he do this? He had a cush gig at the white house. As the editor of the paper said, he was never on deadline, he submitted these things whenever he wanted. At it is a rather easy crime to detect. My own theory is that this guy was asking to get brought down. But I am really really curious as to what the f he thought he was doing.

Little-known 11th Commandment:

Thou shalt not hold thy elephant accountable.

But I am really really curious as to what the f he thought he was doing.

Easy! He was living the “Ownership Society” dream – finding something you want, and then claim ownership of it, regardless of who currently has it.

It’s a technique that gets it’s own chapter in The Pasty White Male’s Guide to World Domination.

The rightards are are howling and framing this as mean moonbats bringing down a good but flawed man and his family because we don’t love free speech.

oy.

It really is fascinating how people – not just this Rovian clown – but big-league journalists or authors think they can get away with plagiarism these days. They probably could 50, or, hell, 20 years ago. If you wrote for a B-rate, local paper in a place like Indiana, chances are no-one outside your little community ever saw your writing. Today, every newspaper in the country is on the Web, and, for added bonus fun, with the invention of Google, Lexis-Nexis, etc. every damn phrase you write can now be checked to see if it’s magically turned up somewhere else earlier. And yet they still do it. Is it a self-destructive thing? An “I’m smarter than them, they’ll never find out” mindset? I’d really love to know what goes through their minds.

I’d have a small touch of sympathy if this column was unique. But twenty out of thirty five? Thats Bush league if you’ll not pardon the pun.

did he remember to plant a flag in it?

There’s the problem, misinterpretation. They thought free speech meant free for the taking.
