I agree an open discussion is healthy. But you also have to have information to back yourself up. If you're going to make something public have the correct information to back your statements up. For example, if I was going to write a blog post tomorrow that I was suspicious about how a presidential campaign was handling their finances. Shouldn't I have some sort of information that backed up my suspicion?
