Ah, the good old ad hominem. I was wondering how soon you'd resort to it. Perhaps you should try and get a refund from any debate classes you might have attended.Originally Posted by Tribesman
And you need to read the link for a strawman argument:
Did I misrepresent the actions or positions of those democrat Senators or Clinton and his gang? No, I did not. Of course, had you read the links, you would have seen that. But what time is there for learning when there are personal attacks to be launched? Perhaps next time you'll get a clue and bring some actual arguments instead of the same, tired logical fallacies. I worry for you when you seem to so fervently believe that you're actually debating.The Straw Man fallacy is committed when a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position. This sort of "reasoning" has the following pattern:
1. Person A has position X.
2. Person B presents position Y (which is a distorted version of X).
3. Person B attacks position Y.
4. Therefore X is false/incorrect/flawed.![]()
