Kicking Ass: The Democratic Party's Blog

WH Staffer Caught by a Blogger

Posted by Michael Link on February 29, 2008 at 04:32 PM

White House staffer Timothy Goeglein has admitted to plagiarism, the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette reports:

"It is true," Tim Goeglein wrote to The Journal Gazette in an e-mail. "I am entirely at fault. It was wrong of me. There are no excuses."

He said he wrote to the author of the essay, Jeffrey Hart "to apologize, and do so categorically and without exception."

Nancy Nall, a former News-Sentinel columnist who writes a blog from her home in Michigan, detailed the nearly word-for-word similarities of eight paragraphs of Goeglein's 16-pargraph essay about college education, which appeared in the News-Sentinel on Thursday, and Hart's column, which was written about a decade ago.

Screw you patriotmom. Republicans are all slimeballs too cheap to help the average American. The republicans have destroyed our economy and we are headed for another republican depression like 1929. The depression of 1929 was caused by republicans and it is playing out in an identical fashion to 1929 starting with mortgage foreclosures brought on by republican bankers.

This next republican depression will make the last republican depression of 1929 look like a party.

Go to hell.
