What is with the plagiarism lately???

This is a little late, but whatever.


Sarah Palin paraphrased/stole a poem by (IRONICALLY) the veteran Charles M. Province.

Basically, it was something she tweeted, and she did not give credit.

Memorial Day tweet: http://twitter.com/SarahPalinUSA/status/15010655928

Poem: http://iwvpa.net/provincecm/

And Roger Ebert (ebertchicago) replied: "VETS, not Sarah Palin, die in unwinnable wars based on lies."

OH SNAP. You just got schooled, bitch.

Apparently "Mr. Charles M. Province has [requested] that due credit be given to his authorship of the poem". (Quoted in a tweet by JamesUrbaniak)

And THAT is how you give credit where credit is due.
