    Scott Brown lifted childhood memories from Elizabeth Dole

    http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/10/13/scott-brown-lifted-childhood-memories-from-elizabeth-dole/


    In a message to students on his site, which has since been removed, Brown borrowed from Dole’s childhood memories, omitting only one line: “I am Mary and John Hanford’s daughter.”“I was raised to believe that there are no limits to individual achievement and no excuses to justify indifference,” the message reads. “From an early age, I was taught that success is measured not in material accumulations, but in service to others. I was encouraged to join causes larger than myself, to pursue positive change through a sense of mission, and to stand up for what I believe.”
    and what was his excuse?
    Brown spokesman John Donnelly told the Boston Globe that the copied text was a staff mistake.
    Of course the irony here is nothing short of meteoric: Brown steals Dole's (most likely apocryphal) just-so story about accepting personal responsibility for one's behavior and then blames his underlings for using the wrong lie to validate his lies about his upbringing.

    read the cited story; there are indications of he plagiarized other portions of his web site
