Four Score and Seven Hours Ago...
...I lost a little more respect for the Clinton campaign, what with their complaint about Obama appropriating words and phrases of a friend.
Obama's camp says Hillary appropriates his own language. Whether or not that's true, I'm quite sure that Hillary uses speechwriters, which gives her communications director zero or even sub-zero ability to complain, especially considering how he is probably her head speechwriter. As a longtime speechwriter myself, I'm irritated that someone who uses (or someone who offers) writing assistance would pounce on someone else for word-borrowing. It's really a reach, a desperate one at that.
