The Patriot's Voice supplies a virtually endless river of fallacies ranging from linguistic fallacies to begging the questions to fallacious appeals to authority to fallacies of ignorance, to post hocs--just a treasure trove. The frightening part, however, is that the reading public doesn't always see through the absurdities of much of their reasoning--hence the new blog.<BR/><BR/>Now, of course I will need to keep up with it! Thanks for the encouraging words....and may I say, your blog is quite spiffy looking!<BR/><BR/>WendyWendy Lynne Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17591185266607991768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543652813050186080.post-46193184166870449302007-09-10T22:19:00.000-07:002007-09-10T22:19:00.000-07:00This is funny.

I plan on elaborating on the topic tomorrow and was debating writing into "30 Seconds" about it also. <BR/><BR/>This might inspire me to do so. <BR/><BR/>It is also reassuring to see that the logical fallacy I noticed was the same one you did. Every year that passes since my undergrad tends to undermine the confidence with which I approach analyzing different arguments, but his was simply too good to resist.Russell Humehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13470484832479103815noreply@blogger.com
