Bush Aide Resigns After Admitting Plagiarism

A longtime aide to President Bush who wrote occasional guest columns for his hometown newspaper resigned on Friday evening after admitting that he had repeatedly plagiarized from other writers.

I won’t say the left went ape over this, but they are certainly cheering. Compare to the Ward Churchill plagiarism issue. Tim Goeglein immediately resigns, Bush says what Tim did was bad. Liberals around the country stood up for the long time plagiarism of Churchill, and still attend his speeches.

Mukasey won’t pursue contempt probe of Bush aides: Libs apoplectic, Mukasey says “neener neener neeeener.”

Obamessiah: I Will Never Use “Threat Of Terrorism To Scare Up Votes”: probably because he believes most terrorism is fake, and the rest was created by Bush’s illegal, unwarranted invasion of a peaceful country with a peaceful dictator, and will disappear the minute we pull out of Iraq, leaving all our heavy weapons behind.

Sen. Clinton accepts donations from troubled firm

Sen. Hillary Clinton has declined to return $170,000 in campaign contributions from individuals at a company accused of widespread sexual harassment, and whose CEO is a disbarred lawyer with a criminal record, federal campaign records show.

Would be entirely too easy to make a joke about that one, don’t ya think?
