Meh.
My 2-year old daughter used to yell "Feeedom!" all the time.
Not because we were taking her along on marches; there were none to take her to. She got it from listening to Richie Havens' singing at Woodstock. I owned the record, and his song, which only had that one word, was the one she loved the most.
She would dance and sing along with Richie. He would yell "Freedom!", and so would she, back at him.
Like all little kids, hearing it once was never enough. I would have to play it for her many times or not at all. Since I thought it was cute, I would always play it for as long as she wanted.
MY person? Dude, I’m British. I don’t give a rats a$$, I don’t have a person. But it’s kind of hypocritical to get all wound up about it when the First Lady plagiarised the previous First Lady’s speech. But if you say it only counts for the people YOU want to criticise then please carry on! The manufacturer outrage on here is ridiculous. You guys get so angry when hypocrisy is pointed out that I can see the veins in your necks pulsing from 3000 miles away.
Not at all.. Just saying that a First Lady is small fish. A figure head at best. Now a sitting US senator? A VP elect? They are big fish. I am pointing out the hypocrisy of the Trump haters. Trump isn't my guy never was never will be, but those who hate him blatantly ignore the sins of the democrats. That is my point. Calling out Melania and using that as a defense or an excuse to give a free pass to Harris? Now that is hypocrisy at its best. Melania as I said is nothing but a figure head.
I love tagging hypocrites and you absolutely fit the bill with your but Melania did it too argument.
Someone who is not qualified for her position of course she has to steal from others, the Democratic way.
How is she not qualified?

Well, she must have plagiarized it from Alex Haley. I mean, only one child in the entire English-speaking world could ever have trouble pronouncing the "r" sound, right? Only one child in the entire English-speaking world could want freedom, right?
I have now this “feedom” quote attributed to MLKJr and Mr Haley, as the originator. Either is possible. Harris’s plagiarization of this story is her original lifting of someone else’s heart string moment, though. She is quite adept at playing this sort of victimization ploy.

The anecdote is King's.
It was from a 1965 Playboy interview conducted and written by Haley.
