So basically, Hackett inspires and Brown perspires.

My claim of prescience is my statement that Brown is way too into the blogs. Who would know that he was SO into them that he would chew them out publically. LOL.

Not the kind of drama that I was talking about with Hackett. Hackett inspires people to write and talk about him. Cameras follow him. He's a welcome fixture on political talk shows. There's nothing about Brown's intended public

I don't think I omitted "context," just commentary. In any case, I clearly indicated it by ellipses and provided a link to the post. Adding it to the comment section, as you've done, is also a good idea, and I might even do that for all my links.

I am confused, however, as to what is "fairer" about the abridged vs. unabridged post. Perhaps you could explain why one suggests a meaning

Hey, nice way to take oh02's comment and strip it of all context. In the interest of fairness, here is the full quote:

"While I appreciate hearing from the Congressman online, am I the only one that fears that he may be a little too enamoured with the blogosphere? He’s investing a lot of resources online, but I’m not seeing the return on the investment. As someone who was in
