My previous post was an example of the posting I was querying, which simply 
reposts someone else's post without adding anything further. Obviously I was 
posting like this to give an example of this, but what are other people doing 
when they post like this (a v recent one was Mike's)? [Endorsement? Mistake?]

I can't help but observe that this was posted on the anniversary of the first 
publication of what is certainly one of the most argumentative of political 
documents (Feb. 21st, 1848).

Ghost posters? Could the spectre of political argument still be haunting 
Lit-Ideas? ;-)
