Reply #4: Huh? [View All]

[AP]

I'm relying on others to get the ball rolling? That's a bad thing? Search the archives if you want to see what issues interest me so much that I'm willing to start posts about them and then search for my replies to posts to see where I think either that DUers badly need another perspective or that I'd like to throw in a "here, here."

I have to admit I'm totally baffled by the logic of your post. I guess it appears that there's a theme that you're interested in pursuing, and I know you don't want anyone to think you have an editorial agenda, and I know you prefer to present the impression that you're just posting things as you discover them. Whatever. I don't care.

The fact that I'm almost always posting a response that's critical of, or tries to present the other side to what you're citing could possibly suggest some difference between our personal opinions of these issues. But why do you so desperately want to read into this a personal conflict when your entire premise is that these stories you post don't reflect anything personal about yourself? Why don't you just accept that I'm responding to the article itself?

I think it's very revealing that you post a story in LBN with no commentary, I respond ENTIRELY to the article, and say nothing about you personally, and then you respond with somethign that's little more than a personal attack on my posting activity here at DU. Pot meet kettle, eh?
