'The White House liaison on religious affairs who admitted in a Friday news article that he had lifted someone else's material for an opinion column has resigned.

Tim Goeglein had worked for the White House since 2001, and helped establish the President's Faith-Based and Community Initiative — a major initiative in the Bush White House — as well as the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, according to a statement from White House press secretary Dana Perino. . .

The President was disappointed to learn of the matter, and he was saddened for Tim and his family. . .

"He has apologized to the editors of The News-Sentinel and also said there may be other previous columns he has written for The News-Sentinel that also may contain plagiarized material. We have found material in at least two other previous guest columns lifted from other sources without attribution and are continuing to check other previous submissions," according to the News-Sentinel's Web site.'

a recidivist plagiarist! And the president is sad for the criminal! No comment about the violated intellectual property rights of the victims?

The victims? Oh, but the shrub doesn't know them...

Aktually the shrub said he was disappointed by the event and saddened for the cheater and his family. Technically he could be saddened that the family no longer has a made-up salary for a made-up job to cover a made-up need to cater to Right Wing Religious Nut Jobs.

Just a thought.

Wonder why he doesn't see it as just another part of the 'Divine Plan'?
