A more accurate portrayal of those situation is that I make reasonable points and then get asked lots of questions, and get attacked, too. So I try, within reason, to respond and clarify.

You make "reasonable points"? Like the following?
In other words, we talk about a person who apparently would have liked to become a lawyers but failed to get there, and who missed some other important perspectives that "she" would have needed to provide holistic analysis of the issues "she" covered.
So what does "PJ" bring to the table? A blog full of rants that never had any actual effect on a decision -- it was just a propaganda device all the time.
It's beyond me why anyone would wish to engage in such character assassination. The only explanation I can present is that you're hiding a conflict of interest, and therefore your "reasonable points" and "blogs" are paid for.

Failure to *unequivocally* disclose conflicts of interest shows lack of ethical integrity for anyone willing to engage in such behaviour, and anyone low enough to pay for it.
