      I have a real disdain for dynastic politics. Screw the Adamses.

          Ivanka will probably be our first Jewish President.

            It was good enough to post it twice. In fact, maybe someone should post it over on UB5...it might double their daily post count.
            "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

              KUTV now reporting:

              (KUTV) The speechwriter who claims she unwittingly plagiarized Michelle Obama in Melania Trump's Republican National Convention speech was also a University of Utah graduate.Meredith McIver, 65, graduated from the University of Utah in 1976 with a Bachelor


              Be sure to read the letter. She admits to plagiarizing the speech (out of laziness). Her story seems plausible. I wonder if the republicans will now stop that ridiculous charade of claiming it wasn't really plagiarized.

                They probably won't stop, but the woman is both a Ute and a registered Democrat, so they can point to that.

                  While this is possible, I have a theory that American Christians wouldn't necessarily take to a Christian-->Jewish convert.

                    Trump rejected her resignation. I actually admire that.

                    LOL @ LA Ute for thinking it was a conspiracy.

                      Dude, that letter was bullshit. She wrote down some stuff that a non-native English speaker read from a speech and then didn't "check" Mrs. Obama's speeches? Bullshit. Absolute bullshit. I want to say it again like Ramsay Bolton's 4th arrow. Bullshit.

                        I didn't say it wasn't plagiarism!

                          No copy editors at KUTV? Or do they only employ Utah grads?

                          McIver began working for Donald Trump in 2011, co-authoring several books together, including the 2004 publication "Trump: How to Get Rich."

                            Duh. A time machine. The same one that allowed Michelle Obama to rip off Melania Trump's speech.

                              1. Name one country where parents get to send their kids to whichever school they choose without paying for the privilege.
                              2. Did he ever go to public school?
                              3. If this is true, is that why they are ahead?
                              4. Are they ahead?
                              5. What does ahead even mean?
                              6. Are these countries homogenous or are they diverse?
                              7. Are they postcolonial?
                              8. Do they provide a k-12 education for free?
                              9. Shiiiiiiit? --Clay Davis
