In 2002, George W. Bush said the following:
West Point is guided by tradition, and in honor of the “Golden Children of the Corps,†(applause) I will observe one of the traditions you cherish most. As the Commander-in-Chief, I hereby grant amnesty to all cadets who are on restriction for minor conduct offenses. (Applause.) Those of you in the end zone might have cheered a little early. (Laughter.)
Because, you see, I’m going to let General Lennox define exactly what “minor†means. (Laughter.)
During his commencement speech this weekend, Obama said this:
“To the United States Corps of Cadets, and most of all, the Class of 2010 – it is an honor to serve as your Commander-in-Chief. Under our constitutional system, my power as President is wisely limited. But there are some areas where my power is absolute. And so, as your Commander-in-Chief, I hereby absolve all cadets who are on restriction for minor conduct offenses.
That’s a lot of cheering. So I’ll leave the definition of “minor†to those who know better.â€

The ReichsMessiah has never been guilty of original thought before - any questions to that fact, I will simply refer to TOTUS - why in the hell should he not plagerize NOW?
