When I have posted IBD pieces, I have also clearly stated they were from the editorial page. I often do it to show a different point of view based on the same set of facts on a given issue, not to prove factual truth.
If I have ever failed to do that, please show me. I think most know the difference between an editorial and factual based research, eventhough facts may be quoted in an editorial.
Again, my analogies are pointed to the extreme because posters often take extreme positions that don't stand up. For example wanting controls CEO pay but no controls on the pay of others including babysitters. When people say they get the point, I don't spend time thinking of analogies.

I am not surprised. I am disappointed by some who on the surface pretend to be interested in open honest debate and then easily get offended when challenged. I have also notice when I make afew good points here and there they run from the discussion or make personal attacks. I have had several tell me my beliefs were not sincere, or simple try to tell me what I really think, inspite of what I actually state.
