You got multiple levels of dubiousity working there. First, why am I obligated to disprove the dubious accusations of some random anonymous blogger? Second, there's the definitional issue of how questioning some random web source of unknowable veracity constitutes an "ad hominem attack". Third, you got a rather large dark pot problem on the ad hominem front these days.

On the larger front, the ad hominem attack seems to be the official W first line of defense against anybody who goes against the war marketing line du jour, as Wilson, Clarke, O'Neill and soon, no doubt, Zinni could all attest to. But I assume that only cuts one way.
