Speaking of garbage spewing nonsense from their camp (PM - 11/1/2006 8:26:43 PM)
NLS has this story up about a plagiarism charge against Jim Webb. This is based on a one pager some guy wrote at National Review Online. http://article.natio...(I don't know why I bother going to NLS anymore actually.)
This has got to be the most pathetic attack piece I've seen in my entire life. I don't even have to think about that statement. Weak? How about non-existent.
I've been reading press copy closely now the past 20 months, working on blogging and politics, and reporters do these general rewrites all the time. (The amount is so miniscule you'd need a row of zeroes to calculate a percentage.) That's not plagiarism. If it was, every college student in America would be guilty of it.
NRO and Allen's people don't want you to think about stories like this:
Reuters - Wed Nov 1, 9:58 AM ET
BAGHDAD - The number of Iraqi civilians killed in violence may have jumped to another record high in October, data from the Iraqi government indicated on Wednesday. Statistics issued by the Interior Ministry for Iraqis killed in political violence put civilian deaths last month at 1,289, nearly 42 a day and up 18 percent from the 1,089 seen in September, itself a record for this particular series of data.
or this
The poll found 54 percent of voters saying it had not been worth the human and economic price to remove former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein from power, while 63 percent said they disapproved of President George W. Bush's handling of Iraq.
