Rand Paul – The Republican Copy Machine, Gets New Gig

Our lesson for today – Plagiarism is not okay in any media outlets except for the conservative ones,  where people with multiple records of plagiarism are quickly hired and welcomed with open arms.

I’m talking about Kentucky Senator, Plagiarist extraordinaire and a beacon for Republican/Teaparty ideology, Rand Copy and Paste Without Attribution Paul.

Rand Paul, as you all know by now, loves Wikipedia, Forbes Magazine, The Week Magazine…  He loves them so much that he “borrowed” entire sentences,  sometimes paragraphs from those publications without citing them as sources, then passed that information on as his own. That is the true definition of plagiarism, but Paul initially admitted to no wrongdoing, and even suggested a “duel” with reporter Rachel Maddow for her role in bringing the plagiarism story to light.

Paul then somewhat accepted responsibility on Tuesday when he went on CNN and said, “ultimately, I’m the boss, and things go out under my name, so it is my fault. I never had intentionally presented anyone’s ideas as my own.”

But that semi-acceptance of him mastering the copy and paste technique was too late. Paul’s weekly column on The Washington Times was already canceled.

But fear not for this brave hero of the Republicans. Paul will still get the opportunity to display his, someone else’s work for all to see.

Shortly after The Washington Times cut ties with the copy machine from Kentucky, the conservative media outlet Breitbart News announced that they would gladly accept his services thank you.

Said Larry Solov, CEO of Breitbart News;

“We are pleased to add Senator Paul to our lineup of fearless, original thought leaders. Most of all, we think the fighting spirit he has become known for is a perfect fit for Breitbart News Network and reflects that of our founder, Andrew Breitbart.”

Yes, you heard that right. He actually referred to Rand Paul as a “fearless,  original thought leader!”

So to the young and aspiring Plagiarists too lazy to do their own research,  or formulate their own ideas, or credit the work they’re stealing, there is hope for you after all. Rand Paul is leading the movement!

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
