Rand Paul does the usual regarding his recitations from Wikipedia...

[Archae]

Whine, deflect, not answer, make excuses, attack Rachel Maddow.


Without mentioning her by name, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) dismissed MSNBC host Rachel Maddow’s questions surrounding his use of Wikipedia in campaign speeches in an interview with Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos on Wednesday.

“Nothing I said was not given attribution to where it came from,” Paul told Ramos, arguing that he has credited “the screenwriters” for the movie Gattaca — though he did not name writer/director Andrew Nichol — and author Ray Bradbury for referencing their work.

“The rest of it’s making a mountain out of a molehill for people, I think, who are political enemies and have an ax to grind,” Paul added.

1. Rand, if you have an "enemies list", I'd be pleased to be on it!

2. I think he was too stupid to realize what he was being accused of

He kept saying he gave credit to Gattaca, that he didn't make it up.

He's too stupid to realize that he wasn't being told he stole the story from the screenwriters,

he stole the SYNOPSIS of the story from Wikipedia.

3. From which Wikipedia article did he get that excuse? nt
