in 17sss's defence, i never got the impression he was trying to pass other people's work off as his own. having said that thought a sourced link is always appropriate. |
noted. I also assumed that people would know to a degree, since some of my posts are long. Sometimes I'll post a direct newspaper story without the source, unless someone asks for it, and they never do. Anyway if Factcheck-Jones Lebzniatnikov needs to know the source, I'll give it to him |

Have you heard of paraphrasing? The problem with Rush and the rest is its not original thought. They are pushing an agenda. At any rate, you should be perfectly capable of sculpting out the same arguments using legitimate sources and referencing those sources. If you are not, then there is something wrong with your argument. |
We're all pushing an agenda to some degree in this forum. I can sculpt out the same arguments, but my point was that it's articulated better (IMO) when he does it, so I'll post that. I'll just preface with the source again from now on, even though that will blunt the discussion of that topic. |

Why don't you just put the source to begin with?
Better yet try thinking for yourself and posting original ideas that are genuinely your own. |

I already said why... because in the past when I did, the visceral hatred that people in this forum have for Rush pre-emptively stopped the discussions from happening when they saw his name sourced; so I tried it without putting his name there and I found people were actually paying attention to the content of the words more. |

That doesn't explain why you have to parrot back what that asshat says verbatim. It also leads people to discredit anything you say from now on. |

yeah, actually it does explain why. What's not to understand? Here it is again: I want to have a discussion about a topic. The particular topic happens to be about something I am in total agreeance with Rush about. He communicates the message better than I do, which I think will make it easier for you guys to understand where I'm coming from. In the past, citing Rush has lead to an instant bias that stops the discussion from happening before it starts. So, I tried using the same words, of which I already agree with, without citing his name and I found that people were more likely to actually read the content and have the discussion instead of saying "Rush is the source? this." Unfortunately, you're right... people will discredit what I say because of this, even if I believe they should understand where I'm coming from. So, I will cite again and we'll see if it works out or reverts back to past examples. I'll admit, it happens to me too when I see someone source the Huffpo or Kos... right away I have no interest in reading it and I'd be more likely to listen without that inherant bias by seeing those sources |

lol, what a joke..Pure desperation here by the Mccain fanboys.
17ss, be honest...If your father left you when you were TWO YEARS OLD and never saw you again, would you make it a priority in life to track down his adult family and provide for them? |

So what does that make your boy at the bottom of the Democratic ticket? lol |
Funny that you recognize what he did is wrong. Problem is, he used one paragraph, cited it ten times, and on the eleventh occasion, he didn't. So while that's bad, your habitual stealing is worse. |
