165. For the record
equating another's position with a mutual enemy is a cheap way to score a debate point. (you drink tea??? Hitler drank TEA!!!!) So he agrees with a Republican on this issue?...big deal. The sun shines on a dog's ass every now and again. I happen to agree with the cartoon, as well.

Calling him overpriveledged and irresponsible is just as much of an ad-hom as you accuse your opponent of using. You accused me of being rich upthread without any evidence....is this the tack you wish to take in an argument?

When one attacks the messenger and not the message, then that person appears to have run out of things to say.

Just something to remember because you are obviously trying to convince people, but your methods will not convince many if you use these techniques.
