A speech writer's job is to write a speech for someone perfectly so that there is no reason to second guess anything. The speechwriter failed. Whether she said she wrote it or not, the person who actually wrote it is getting fired. Don't know if I would rule out the possibility that she wrote it. Trump is apparently writing his and it's kind of the style of his campaign. | ||

There are professional paid to right those speech and they wrote a bunch of them of course they all kind of sound the same, they know what catchphrase work the best. It would be way harder to actually take Michelle Obama speech and try to copy it by changing some word then to just write that kind of bland statement. Seem likes just a coincidence to me. Anyway it's not like it was of any importance. Watch the video and read the last line. That stuff doesn't just accidentally happen. Yeah its a cliche message but the exact same words don't just happen to come out in the exact same configuration like that. When you further consider that one was said by the first lady and the other was said by someone looking to become the first lady the odds become so amazingly minuscule coincidence isn't even debatable. You can argue whether the plagiarism matters really. But there is nothing coincidental about it. | ||

Of course terrorism is a serious problem, I just don't understand why the Republican platform seems to act like they're the first ones to figure that out? Do they think Obama thinks terrorism isn't serious and that he's truely a Kenyan Muslim ISIS operative? Do they truly think that screaming the word "radical Islam" while throwing the fists in the air is a tool to combat terrorism? Are they imagininging terrorists sit in front of their TV's and are like "Hell no, the Americans have finally figured it out, better pack our bags" ? | ||

Maybe I am just naive but speech writers that did the same study and wrote hundred of politicals speech writing the same phrase seems more belivable to me then working to copy another speech, and it's not like it was in a particulary good speech. | ||
