I actually read the articles.
I try to take the more interesting part out and quote it.
I appreciate when you do that. It helps give the conversation life and you don't always choose the same part that I would.

There are times that I have.
I actually do it to pick your brain, its always nice to get another perspective.
There have been times where I have read an article and found I got the opposite perspective of what you talked about.

That's interesting too.

Everybody brings a different preconception to the reading of any article. We are individuals, not yet molded into the precise thought forms that THEY want for us.
Keep in mind that I don't necessarily agree with the author, so I might respond to the passage you highlight differently than the author would.

I can try to do a better job of indicating whether I'm trying to explain what the author meant or giving my opinion of the content.

Keeping the readers guessing and trying to figure it out by comparing the article to what you are saying is a good exercise in critical thinking.
That is the objective of doing the posting commentary.
