Obviously you are a student of debate.
I stand corrected. I always thought a straw man was setting up an argument from the opponents view in order to tear it down. I also assumed an ad hominem was a direct attack against the character of the opposition.
How would I logically say that it is hypocritical to deride a protest against excessive energy use and wanting to posses a luxury car?
