Antagonists persist with these fallacies until opponents are worn out

I knew there was an explanation for the huge disparity in the reported
numbers of teabaggers- birthers-deathers-racists in DC for the
demonstration. I thought the rightie-racists were simply lying but I see
you looked up all the necessary logical terms to explain their bull****.

Harry, you seem to be wrong about quite a few things. One of those
things that you can add to your list is that I "looked up all the
necessary logical terms." And another one that I haven't looked up
and appears to be the fallacy of choice with you (and others) is the
ignoratio elenchi. If you have any intellectual curiosity on this
matter you may do a search of the term in conjunction with Aristotle's
name.
