[quote=TheManWithAUsername][quote=Anonymous][quote=TheManWithAUsername][quote=Anonymous]So pray tell me what we should discuss on the political forum? Or is this only open to one political ideology? Jeff seems to have no problem with these posts. So again I ask on a political forum does posting a thread for discussion make a person a "troll" if they don't toe your party line? Is this the DNC boards? [/quote]
I have a suggestion: get a username, even if you only use it for posts here. It will make it less likely that your posts are mistaken for astroturf propaganda.

FWIW, for me the "wow," with such a brief comment, adds to that impression. Basically, it read like spam to me.[/quote]

OP. I understand that point, but does it matter? Again its the political forum. It's not like I'm posting links to "get free viagra". I mean Jesus what does that person expect? [/quote]
I think it matters* because there are differences among 1) a sincere, considered opinion; 2) thoughtless parroting; and 3) propaganda from a paid activist/campaigner. Many people would choose to ignore #2, and just about everyone would ignore #3. It's the same as the difference between an honest product review and an ad.

* It's all relative, of course. Nothing here really matters.[/quote]
