Virginia Liberals Resort To Plagiarism.

Post by ChiptBeef »

I found an interesting "Plagiarism Resource Site" administered by a professor from the University of Virginia. On that site are two threads "Plagiarism in Henry County" and "Profiting From Plagiarism?" that proves two liberals in that local area have been using plagiarism and other frauds as a means to put forth, and/or advance their liberal agenda. http://www.plagiarism.phys.virginia.edu

I firmly believe our best is brought out by honest and open debate. I think the use of plagiarism in debate brings out the worst. It exhibits the lowest uncommon denominator... intellectual dishonesty. In my opinion, if you are so insecure in your political beliefs that you must steal someone else's work to pass off as your own, you shouldn't even be in the debate. Leave it to those that have their own original ideas and work. These plagiarists discredit their party.

Hello Chipt. I use a plagarism program to check studnet papers, it is quite schocking to realize how many of them are copied straight off the net-they don't even change any of the words!

I appreciate the kind words of welcome. I chose the "crazed baby" avatar because I just had a plate of "ChiptBeef" before I registered. :wah:

The plagiarism thing caught my eye because, no matter what your political affiliation, we should all be willing to debate honestly. Following "talking points" loosely is one thing, but repeated plagiarism is something entirely different, in my opinion.

Sorry for everyone having to do extra digging to get to my information, but I want to honor forum rules to the best of my ability. I got an error message about not being able to post url's until I have made 15 posts. That won't take long, as interesting as this forum seems to be.

Looking forward to healthy and motivating debate. :yh_hugs :yh_hugs

Cream Chipped Beef

Cream Chipped Beef, known in some circles as "SOS," is a stick-to-the-ribs part of any breakfast tailgate. Serve this up over toast or another bread item (your "shingle") and your tailgate is sure to be a hit.

Time Required: 15-30 minutes prep time

Skill Required: Minimal cooking skills needed

Ingredients:

4 tablespoons butter (half a stick)

4 tablespoons flour

4 cups milk

4 packets chopped cooked beef



Steps:

Melt 4 tablespoons butter in large frying pan

Gradually add flour, stirring constantly until smooth

Slowly add milk, stirring constantly until thick and creamy

Add beef, and heat on medium heat for 5 minutes

For tailgating, I recommend pouring into a crock pot at this point

Serve over toast, English muffins, or biscuits


It was a staple in the Military. (WWII era anyways)

Congratulations on finding some obscure little bit of information that you could use to discredit all liberals! The information wasn't even from a news story; it was a post on a message board! :wah:

No it's really good and loaded with all the bad things when you get older. I like mine on sourdough toast with BUTTER and the beef and gray on top.....yum



Know, can somebody please give me the scope on beans and toast? I have asked several times in the past and I get shined on. How do all you do it......Is it just a can of any old beans?:-2

As opposed to you, Chipped, who are advancing your conservative agenda. You use propaganda techniques and outright lies, so what's the diffference?

I firmly believe our best is brought out by honest and open debate.


Sure thing, let's talk about your criminal president spying on honest Americans. He's putting himself up at a petty dictator. Seig Heil, Bush, Seig Heil.

That's a funny thing for someone who continually posts other people's writings to say!:wah:

Kind of the same way I feel about brainwashed zealots like yourself who refuse to acknowledge the criminality of Republicans who are mired in one of the biggest corruption scandals of all time. Or are blind to a lying "president" who not only started an illegal war, but got into bed with the perpetrators of 9/11.

Leave it to those that have their own original ideas and work. These plagiarists discredit their party.


Not you, though! Your deluded propaganda is a credit to your criminal, scheming, unpatriotic, warmongering, corrupt party! You are a perfect example of them!:wah:

Believe me, I'm incensed that the process used was questionable at best, but the general allegations that the gov't is targeting US citizens to spy on seems to be wrong.







Jives wrote: That's a funny thing for someone who continually posts other people's writings to say!:wah:Continually?? He's posted a whopping 4 times! Two of those were in thanks for a kind welcome. What continually?

It's good to get a welcome from a "senior member." Your username says it all in a good way. I try not to get caught up in left, right or party affiliation. It's clear that there are serious issues on both sides in this Abramoff scandal. I wish those that are guilty, and the know who they are, would come out a accept responsibility and save us all the tooth pulling in order to get to the truth.



Thanks again for making me feel welcome. I hope to be a good forum neighbor.:-6


It looks to me like some of them [politicians] were all in the same bed, kind of like we did growing up, only they had different ideas and there was a much different outcome. I think we will find there's been enough corruption in this thing to cover many Democrats and Republicans like a blanket. One question is who will have the integirty to come forward and come clean before warrants have to be issued? :-5

To Benjamin - The plagiarism was from news articles or editorials from newspapers, the internet and even at least one published book. I don't consider the amount and number of occasions of plagiarism proven as "some obscure little bit of information," as you claim. However, you have a right to your own spin.

To Jives - So I'm guilty by association after only a few posts? When have I "continually posts other peoples writings" as you allege? Isn't it common practice for forum posters world-wide to reference other sites were they get information? Where did the intense hostility in your post originate? What have I done in those few posts to rate such a tirade? Perhaps we should just agree to disagree and move forward. :cool:

It tastes even better if you replace the toast with some good, home-made buttermilk biscuits. That's a southern twist. If you are looking for a worldly flavor, put it over a belgium waffle. That's pretty kickin' too. :yh_worshp

Beans on Toast



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mention to the average American, that you love Beans on Toast, and you are stared at in disbelief. I guess the thought of actually eating beans on a piece of toast is a little hard to swallow, both literally, and figuratively, and yet it is an extremely tasty, and nutritious meal. So, just in case you are still wondering what we are talking about, here’s the recipe, which would provide a meal for two:



Ingredients



1 - 14oz tin of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce



2 - Large Eggs



1 – Large Loaf of Bread (suitable for toasting)



Plenty of Butter (or equivalent if you prefer)





Method





1) Empty the Baked Beans into a small saucepan



2) Prepare a pan to either poach, or fry the eggs (your choice, but poached is better)



3) Start toasting the bread. How many slices is of course up to you, and your appetite at the time, but at least 2 slices each are needed for the beans, plus any additional slices for the Jam later.



Note: While the toast is toasting, don’t forget to make a large pot of tea. It is an absolute fact that you cannot eat Beans on Toast, without lots of tea.



4) Once the toast is “on” gently warm the beans, and start to cook the eggs.



5) As the toast is done, place it on pre-warmed plates, and apply lots of Butter to taste



6) Pour half the beans on each plate, spreading them over the 2 slices of toast.



7) Place the cooked eggs on top of the beans, sprinkle a little pepper, (a if you prefer, maybe a dash of Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce), and enjoy.



The extra slices of toast you prepared you can now enjoy with your favourite Duerr's Jams or Preserves


See, I dont know about the egg part....... *shivers*

ROFLMAO! What did you do to justify such a tirade?!! Let's see...you bashed my party in two threads on your first day!

I must be confused, I thought the name of this game was unadulterated, zealous, fanatical political agenda! I was just trying to play along with your obviously slanted posts!

Gee, I never get to have any fun anymore.:rolleyes:

Yes...When he said he wasn't partisan.

Are the dems without stain?


Obviously, the country was a much, much better place to live in when Clinton was President. Come on Hillary!

Don't you think that dems calling repubs for accepting bribs is the robber calling the thief a crook?


No, since the Democrats are honest and the Republicans are scoundrels of the worst sort.
