Rand Paul said: "In the movie Gattaca, in the not-too-distant future, eugenics is common and DNA plays a primary role in determining your social class." From Wikipedia: In "the not-too-distant future", liberal eugenics is common and DNA plays the primary role in determining social class.
From Paul's speech: "Due to frequent screenings, Vincent faces genetic discrimination and prejudice. The only way to achieve his dream of being an astronaut is he has to become what's called a "borrowed ladder."

Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "purloining and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions," and the representation of them as one's own original work.
"Purloining and publication" requires stealing and publishing claiming it to be his own "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions."
Repeating other people's statements is not stealing or publishing, nor representing it as one's own original work, therefore NOT plagarism.
Attacking the person does not win any argument regarding the statement itself.
Box is so terrified of Rand Paul that he works hard to build a coalition of libertarian haters based on his nonsensical, convoluted logical fallacies.
Logical Fallacies
Logic is the study of reasoning - the nature of good (correct) reasoning and of bad (incorrect) reasoning.
Its focus is the method by which an argument unfolds, not whether any arbitrary statement is true or accurate.
Thus, an argument can be both deductively valid and perfectly absurd, as in:
Fallacy #1
1. Rand Paul is a Libertarian.
2. He then asserts that Rand Paul is a racist, sexist, government hating, plagiarizing extremist.
3. Therefore, all Libertarians are racist, sexist, government hating, plagiarizing extremists.
Fallacy #2
1. Some mentally unstable people commit acts of violence.
2. Some of these violent people hold a belief in freedom from oppressive government, thereby justifying their actions.
3. Therefore anyone who disagrees with oppressive government actions is mentally unstable and a potential violent threat.
Fallacy #3
1. Guns are used by mentally unstable non government people to kill other people.
2. False conclusion based on fallacy #2; anyone who disagrees with oppressive government actions is mentally unstable and a potential violent threat.
3. Therefore guns should be kept out of the hands all non government persons who disagree with oppressive government.
This is known as circular reasoning.
Fallacy after fallacy are presented based on the false conclusions of each of the previous false conclusions.
He is truly a box of fallacies and false conclusions.
Please note, that I am drawing my conclusions based on box's history of false premises and biased conclusions that he uses for propaganda.
I am not attacking the box, but observing and commenting on his lack of logically concluded debating skills.
Circular reasoning based upon layered false premises is biased propaganda.
Fallacy #4
1. Ted Kaczynski believes in climate change.
2. Box of faulty logic believes in climate change.
Guns are used to commit crimes and kill people, therefore, people using their guaranteed, un-infringed, constitutional right, to be able to defend themselves, must be allowed to do so, without restrictions or limitations.(infringement)
Serial Plagiarizer: List of Rand Paul Speech Copying Grows
Rand Paul hopes being caught plagiarizing will go away, but instead the story just keeps growing with more and more examples of his lies.

"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
I wonder Henry, did you even watch the video? Maddow addresses the "attack the attacker" in the opening segment of the video.
By your response I can only assume that you admit Rand Paul is a plagiarist, and your excuse is "Maddow's a plagiarist too"... but Maddow is a talking head, and Paul is seeking to be US President. A huge difference.

The point is this is a non-issue and I just wanted to show what a hypocrite that carpet muncher is, Wikipedia is a open source for all to use and the articles used in wiki are not copyrighted. By the way Rand Paul has also gave credit to Gattaca which is the same defense you are trying to give to Maddow. When you find a story that is damning then post it, this story is a fail from start to finish.

He/she has to do something to distract people from talking about Obama's "if you like your health insurance, you like your doctor, you can keep it...PERIOD" lie. In the left wing universe, lying to millions if Americans as Obama did, costing families thousands of dollars is not worth talking about(unless you are trying to spin it).

MUST.....DISTRACT....STUPID....AMERICANS....
Rand said this was nothing but an attack from haters, since box posted it from a video he seen from Maddow I think its safe to say Rand Paul is right. Either way if this is the only smear they can find it shows how desperate they really are.
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
What about Buzz Feed also reporting a different incident of Rand Paul plagiarism in June, and Politico has revealed TWO MORE incidences of Rand Paul Plagiarism.
SO IS Buzz Feed also guilty of plagiarism (just because they reported it in Rand Paul), and if attacking the messenger is Rand Paul's defense, is Politico doubly guilty since they reported TWO other separate incidents about Rand Paul .
Attack Maddow, then Buzz Feed and doubly attack Politico... But that doesn't change the "PATTERN OF PLAGIARISM" evident in Paul's speeches.

A top adviser to Sen. Rand Paul said Thursday night that the Kentucky Republican would be “more cautious in presenting and attributing sources” in the future, after POLITICO confronted the senator’s office with fresh examples of Paul speeches that borrowed language from news reports without citing the original source.

Obama had a language problem, he said you could keep your health insurance and doctor if you liked it. THANKS OBAMA!
So it appears by his lack of a response on the subject, that Cicero has joined Henry in abandoning any attempt to defend Rand Paul's blatant plagiarism.
Changing the subject is much easier than defending Rand Paul's lies.
