Pop Culture Frenzy, Round 48

Welcome once again to Pop Culture Frenzy.  Today's question takes us to last night's GOP convention where Melania Trump made a speech.

She has been accused of plagiarizing a section of Michelle Obama's 2008 DNC speech.  Just what was said?
Cyndi?

It's a disgrace.  She should apologize at once!

 

 

 

Hostmaster:  for saying what, exactly?

 

 

 

 

She said about the value of hard work

 and my word is my bond.

Just like Michelle.  Word for word.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I demand an apology from

everyone who uses clunky platitudes

like, "my word is my bond".

 

 

 

 

 



 

What's the big deal?

The value of hard work,

keeping  your word?  Aren't these

things we can actually agree on?

Do we really need to nitpick the wording?

 

 

 

 

 

Melania used Michelle's speech.

She stole it.  It's plagiarization!

Republicans are cheaters!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can you plagiarize a platitude?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good question.

  I'm not sure about platitudes

 but I'm pretty sure cliches' and

old chestnuts are in the

public domain.

 

 

 

 

 

 

She should admit she used

Michelle's words.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know.

All First Lady speeches sound

the same to me. 

First Ladies should be

seen and not heard -and

rarely seen at all.

 

 

 

 

So ends another round.

   For those interested, you can see and hear the controversial speech snippets here.
