Barack Obama has now slumped to the low political ranks of Joe Biden and other plagiarists.
Biden, of course, in past campaigns, became notorious for plagiarizing Neil Kinnock, an Engish politician from England, as Austin Powers would say.
The AP reports that Obama "really doesn't think it's a big deal to use Patrick's words because they share ideas all the time."
And they talked about Karl Rove being "Bush's Brain".
Even more hilarious - Obama has even used his plagarized speeches to respond to Mrs. Bill Clinton's critiques of Obama as an empty vessel - that he is nothing more than a "talker" - while she's a "doer", though whom and when and what she's ever "done", aside from helping counteract Mr. Bill Clinton's Bimbo Eruptions by smearing his female accusers, was still left to question.
Watching that speech in Wisconsin, it was also funny - Obama doesn't have any real career accomplishments, so now he talks about all his years spent registering Chicago voters as if it was some big achievement ("organizing") on his part - I spent a summer doing that part time but never thought it qualified one to be POTUS.
Obama will have to just go back to his "original" Alinksksy scripts.

PATRICK: Governor weighs in and acknowledges he gave Obama the words to use. So it's not plagiarism, it's just Obamafraud. Seriously, the fact Obama has nothing but words and, when he loses those, and gets new (albeit borrowed) words, and is called on it ... the point is Obama is an empty vessel; Marxist-Lenninist to be sure, but empty nonetheless.
BOOKS & SPEECHES: Obama Says He Probably Should Have Credited Mass. Governor for Lines He Used - "Let's see — I've written two books, wrote most of my speeches". ROFLMAO.
TAPPER: Oops - ABC News confirms Obama's Patrick story was a lie ... and it seems more of that "soaring rhetoric" was also "shared" and pre-programmed - they share the same brain ... errrh speechwriter. It's not the crime, it's the cover-up

OOPS AGAIN: Politico reports yet another Obama speech has been found to have been cribbed from Patrick's.
Continuing the point - Obamafraud is an extremely well marketed & slickly packaged political creation. His so-called and wildly heralded "rhetorical ability" simply refers to his taking all the things his handlers have previously prepared and pre-programmed for others and replay + repackaged them back through their campaigns' latest production being the 2007-2008 Obamafraud shows.
One wonders ... since we now know he didn't write those speeches. Who wrote his books?
CNN: Obama “is running on his powerful oratory and his promises,” Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson said in a conference call with reporters Tuesday as he pointed out the similar turns of phrase. “Therefore, it is appropriate when the oratory comes form someone else to point that out and for questions to be raised about it.” ... The Obama campaign did not respond to CNN’s request for comment on the second instance of similar language identified Tuesday. In a statement to reporters, Bill Burton accused Clinton’s campaign of attempting to “fan the flames” around the allegations.
MORE: B4Victory - "What Deval Patrick lacked in leadership he compensated for in rhetoric and his speaking ability. Barack Obama is attempting to pull the same scam on the American people, but what he’s doing is worse because he was using someone else’s words and would have continued had the origins not been revealed. Obama knew where the words came from. His speeches are scripted. He knew he was using someone else’s words. He knew he wasn’t crediting the source. Obama is a fraud."
MISDIRECTION: Apparently these revelations are gaining some traction. AP headlines, "Clinton fingerprints on plagiarism flap ... Obama spokesman Bill Burton said: "Senator Clinton knows full well that her campaign held a conference call with reporters to fan these flames and the fact that she suggested her campaign had nothing to do with it is exactly the kind of evasive tactic voters are rejecting."
TARANTO: An American Unoriginal - "How ridiculous is it that Obama is borrowing someone else's empty rhetoric in order to defend his own? ... And empty it is. Although the other two examples are arguable either way, "We hold these truths . . ." and "I have a dream" were anything but "just words." They were words that held enormous meaning because of the historical context in which they were, respectively, written and uttered. Can the same be said of Obamanalities like "Yes, we can," or "Change we can believe in"? ... Mrs. Clinton is right that Obama has a talent for speaking that leads him to think he can get away with having nothing to say. It's too bad her advisers lack the mental dexterity to make this point effectively."
