False "either-or" argument. Either you vote for Obama or you vote for GW again. False. You could either not vote for Obama, vote for John McCain, or simply not vote at all.
False "cause-effect" statement." Because GW is president, the world went to he!!. False. The world must have been ready to go to pot because of some preexisting reason.
"Snob Appeal". You should feel lucky to be voting in the first black president. You'll be making history! Or, you should feel lucky because you're voting in the first female vice!
Plain folks appeal. Vote for me because I grew up just like you. Unfortunate and with hardly any money.
Name calling. You low down, pitiful excuse for a logical thinker! Why, your argument is the least well-thought-out, the shiftiest, the most downright unbelievable set of half-truths, incorrect facts, and out-and-out lies I have ever encountered! Only a ninny would believe your distorted, half-baked ideas, because a ninny made them up!
Now, all five of these have been used here and through out the election. The American people as a whole out to be ashamed! Now, I'm sure I'll get some Greek in here about was crud this is. But truth is truth and facts are facts. Logical fallacies do exist and are used very, very often!
