Do people post inflammatory anti-Kerry threads just to get a lot of posts
in response? Because those threads do you know. Next question is why do we ALWAYS take the bait?

1. Yes, all the time.
I think some people just like to see the little flame in front of their post.

4. Agreed. The trouble is that little flame announces a derogatory
statement about our candidate. :argh:

2. We take the bait because we're intelligent smart asses!
At least, that's why I take the bait.

6. Not me! Never!
Well, maybe in my younger, more naive poster days. Now, I grit and bear it as I drift agonizingly past those blatant freeper flame baits. :D

7. Don't feed the trolls. Naderites and Freepers love to flame.
And get their talking points out in public.
