Someone uploading an article / originating a thread has, I think, more of a duty to act responsibly.
I was, in essence, raising both hands in order to make a point of order (see "Robert's Rules of Order"). According to "Robert's Rules of Order," such a motion (i.e., a point of order) does not have to refer to the subject at hand - i.e., the person calling attention to a point of order need not "take a stance" on the issue. He might instead note that, e.g., the microphone is too weak for people in the back of the auditorium to understand the debate, that someone should close the doors because of the awful draft, etc.
In fact, the standards here at Free Republic are even laxer - posters often comment only upon, e.g., the irrelevancy of the topic; the suspicious nature of a newbie initiating five threads in ten minutes, all on the same nine-year-old topic; etc.
You have a problem with that?

LOL. Not at all.
Anonymous internet forums are not like the places where Robert’s Rules of Order apply.
We follow JimRob’s rules of order.
