We, of course, see this strategy of refutation all too often. It goes something like, I would love to see reasonable disagreements but this one (whichever one is being pilloried) is well beyond unreasonable.

I see. A hysterical screed entitled "The United States of America has Gone Mad" penned by a well-known author of spy novels that calls the Bush administration a war-mongering "junta" is being unjustly pushed beyond the pale; it ought to be respectfully addressed as a weighty argument of the Left, or the Democrats, or the opposition, or something. Um, haven't they got any better arguments to put forward?

You'd do better if you stuck to defending the defensible.
