Mostly because I started the thread, which usually means lefties assume that I agree with the person who wrote the editorial rather than I thought it would start an interesting discussion.
If that's the case, I think the real issue is your thread titles. You could distance yourself from the content of the articles in the thread if you didn't use the headline from the article itself.
"Questions About Obama's Contacts With Blagojevich" is different from "Horseshit Questions About Obama's Contacts With Blagojevich" but both would start an interesting discussion.
