I saw this at Immoral Minority, and just had to share. I think the best part of this list is the way in which they spell it out, then give you the rhetorical label that goes with that debating strategy. And yes, I'm as guilty as anyone of some of these crimes, usually when I'm not taking the topic seriously enough. (But I take politics very seriously and strenuously object to these tactics being in wide use on the national scene.) Not posted for purposes of finger pointing. Just hoping these help elevate the quality of debate here. (Assuming anyone sees this way down here in the fanshots.)
