Abomination: Biden Plagiarizes President Reagan’s Boys of Pointe du Hoc Speech

Just when there was no possible way I could detest, loathe, and despise the drooling, dementia-ridden, pathetic husk of a man now occupying the office of the President of the United States more—although the sensation returns on an almost daily basis—along comes news that the few highlights of his Normandy Cemetery D-Day speech were plagiarized from one of greatest Americans who ever lived, our icon, President Reagan.

While I needed no reminder of why I, like so many others, thought President Reagan’s speech at Pointe du Hoc was one of the great speeches in American history, a post on American Thinker by Andea Widburg, The good parts of Biden’s D-Day speech came straight from Ronald Reagan, spells it out much more succinctly than I ever could:

First, you should never let a man whose idea of oratory is to alternate between a whisper and a shout copy a man who was famed for his speeches. Most especially, you shouldn’t copy one of that famed orator’s greatest speeches. The contrast is incredible. Reagan’s voice is beautiful, his tempo is perfect, and his emotional modulation is spot on. Biden just yells. It’s a painful reminder of how far we have fallen. (Emphasis mine)

I would have to spend the rest of the day in the thesaurus to find adequate words to describe my revulsion at seeing this thug making, in effect, President Reagan’s speech, apparently on the very same spot where the man I have often referred to as our Last Real President offered his tribute to The Boys of Pointe du Hoc. Most of the words that spring to mind are not fit for polite company and thus will not appear here.

From X (Twitter): “Joe Biden essentially plagiarized Ronald Reagan’s famous 1984 speech at Pointe du Hoc today in Normandy. Watch these clips side by side. Wow:”

We are reminded in Widburg’s post of Biden’s extensive history of plagiarism:

Second, this isn’t Biden’s first plagiarism moment. Biden’s penchant for “borrowing” from others began in law school when he plagiarized content from a law review journal. Then, in 1987, he destroyed his first run for president by plagiarizing John and Bobby Kennedy and Neil Kinnock, a British politician: https://youtu.be/fmuAB5MqP0Y Back in 1965 and 1987, Joe was a dishonest dim bulb, but he was also mentally competent. However, when he started his third successful presidential run in 2019, Joe’s bulb was burned out. Everything from that date forward was the product of the people surrounding him, bringing me to my final point:

Here the author lists the many names of those famous — now more accurately infamous — Democrats who have “borrowed” important passages from important works such as, perhaps most prominently recently, the President of Harvard Claudine Gay.

Appropriately, as we all need at least a little smile after three years of this malign administration, the author then put out a video by the incomparable Tom Lehrer, certainly one of the wittiest performers ever seen in America, about the “value” of plagiarism:

The next five months are going to seem like five years (fifty? five hundred?) and I pray that we make it to the election without further major damage to the Republic.

God Help us.
