Give me a break (2.00 / 2)

Clinton didn't "invent" green-collar jobs or anything else, for that matter.

She's a very savvy policy wonk, but these are standard boiler plate Democratic ideas that have been around for years.

Glad to see you support plagiarism... (2.00 / 7)

...Let me just go ahead and put that on the growing list of things Obama supporters condone:

  • Disenfranchising millions of voters from Florida & Michigan?  Yep
  • Refusing to debate because "there have been too many debates?"  Yep
Feel free to add to this list.

ideas have no copywright (2.00 / 4)

but attribution is polite. This is why it takes him a while week to prepare debating her?  Even though ideas can't have owners, they still start somewhere.

Reality Check... (none / 0)

I know all this spinning is fun but let the grown ups talk now. The only similarity between the two plans is the phrase "Green Jobs"

(From their web pages...)
Hillary's Green Jobs Plan - kind of vague but seems to mostly rely on funding the weatherproofing of homes.

A plan to catalyze a thriving green building industry by investing in green collar jobs and helping to modernize and retrofit 20 million low-income homes to make them more energy efficient;

Obama's Green Jobs Plan - has an actual dollar figure and focuses on greening up businesses and worker training.

Millions of New Green Jobs -- Obama's energy plan will invest $150 billion over ten years to establish a green energy sector that will create millions of new jobs over the next two decades - jobs that pay well and can't be outsourced.  He will also provide funding to help manufacturers convert to green technology and help workers learn the skills they need for these jobs.

Carry on...

Here's my contribution to your list, Andre:

Using right-wing attack ads in a deliberate and brazen attempt to undermine universal health care: HARRY AND LOUISE ADS.

That was a profoundly insulting action from Obama.
