Credit needed for words in speech

Re: Melania Trump’s speech opens a Pandora’s box of questions — July 21

Where’s the heat? (I may have borrowed that idea from an old commercial.)

From the fiery pen of Luisa D’Amato, a profession­al scribe, leaks this tepid, wandering gloss-over of the Melania Trump Madness.

This is theft. Period. From a profession­al speech writer at what is probably considered a world event; well, at least to Americans. This is not about the etymology of our myriad words and phrases that we all use and “borrow.”

This article is almost word-for-word lifted from Michelle Obama, despite the many weak and lame excuses floated by the Republican­s before someone ’fessed up. You should have given credit where due. Gord Cameron Kitchener
