Hungarian president says he won't resign after plagiarism accusation
Protesters in Hungary are calling for the resignation of President Pal Schmitt after a university he attended said that he plagiarized parts of his doctoral dissertation.
However, in an interview aired Friday on public access television station M1, Schmitt said he would not resign.
"I have a clean conscience. I have written my thesis with my best knowledge I had at the time, and I never intended to plagiarize. However, I will accept the decision of the (University) Senate that has withdrawn my doctorate. But this has got nothing to do with me being a president," he said.
Schmitt, a former Olympic fencing champion, wrote his dissertation in 1992 for the University of Physical Education, which is now part of Semmelweis University in Budapest.
In January 2012, the Hungarian HVG weekly reported that a large part of Schmitt's dissertation was copied.

Don't worry about it, Pal. Honesty isn't everything.
Who remembers when Biden was running to be the democrat presidential candidate in 1988? He was busted plagiarizing speeches, revealed to have plagiarized a law review article, said he graduated in the top half of his class when he was 76 in a class of 85, lied about his degrees, lied about his grades…
So you can be a dishonest lying sack of doodie and still go far. Joe and Obama are doing fine!
this issue of protesting should be call to order.
@@@montanan,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,when did you see bidens thesis? Word of mouth? Or how about obama? What did he do wrong ? To many medelers and not enough good in this country . How can people assume that things are true when they have not seen these things for them selves? And faith does not play here. And i guess that maybe your a romney supporter you will have to wait one more term to get rid of obama.
You haven't seen a dinosaur, but you assume they existed...just saying...
Let me Google it for you.
@snotty kid: poor example. we *have* seen fossils and bones. or do you think god seeded the planet with these things to throw us off?
@leeintulsa:
That theory of the seeding God has always cracked me up.
@banasy: is that really someone's theory? rofl.. i thought i was just being creative/rediculous
@leeintulsa:
Sorry, Grasshopper.
Someone beat you to it.
The theory is that it will show that true believers can't be swayed by scientific evidence.
@banasy: so not so creative, but double on the rediculous.. lol
@leeintulsa:
Consider it doubled.
I guess crap runs down hill does it not then? If the government is dishonest,then so are cops and everyone else lets not forget the SUPER NEPATISTIC unions that stab there own family in the backs with lies . So what we should do then is clean up the problem from the bottom up! Starting with the unions of all the dishonest people not the good ones just the back stabers
@@@leeintulsa good goin we needed that but your right. Im not religious but just to say that if god is real than why would he try to confuse us?
@@@leeintulsa good goin we needed that but your right. Im not religious but just to say that if god is real than why would he try to confuse us? God is supposed to be an open door policy for every one.
Protesting is a right. Its expression of free speech, and it should not be called to order, we need these rights or we gradually become third world, no ones going to tell me that i cannot demonstrate in a peacefull manner, i will excercise me rights to the fullest extent of the law has your lifes been controlled enough by dictatorships in government and "others" telling us what to do how to do and when to do ? The strong and correct will prevail
FREEDOM! freedom..
Hail superman!! Very good post. And im sure leeintulsa appreciated it as well.
