Plagiarism: (Noun) The practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own.

In a surprising turn of events, it looks like the Iraq War may not have actually been the dumbest thing to have come out of the Bush Administration. Former presidential aide Bradley Blakeman has filed a lawsuit which claims that the idea for the latest Kevin Costner opus, Swing Vote, was stolen from him after giving his screenplay titled "Go November" to Kelsey Grammer in 2006. In case you're unfamiliar, here is the plot summary of Swing Vote, compliments of IMDB:

Kevin Costner stars as Bud Johnson, an apathetic, beer slinging, lovable loser, who is coasting through a life that has passed him by, except for the one bright spot in his mundane existence, his precocious, over achieving twelve-year old daughter, Molly. She takes care of them both, until one mischievous moment on Election Day, when she accidentally sets off a chain of events which culminates in the presidential election coming down to one vote, her dads.

Going by this glowing description, this sounds about as worthwhile as squabbling for credit over who left a turd log in the office shitter. Maybe at the time, having Taco Bell for lunch seemed like a good idea, but sometimes it's better just to let things go.
