Gish Gallop

When watching a debate, see if you can spot the Gish Gallops.

A Gish Gallop is a debating technique in which one debater packs his response with as many arguments as possible so the opponent can't respond to it all.

Most of it will be false or irrelevant, forcing the opponent to waste time sorting out a rebuttal.

It was named for creationist Duane Gish, who used the technique when arguing against evolution.
