 * Personal Attack (argument //Ad Hominem)//:** this fallacy attempts to divert the reader's attention from the factual evidence of the argument by attacking the motives or character of the opposition.

Word Example: In a school debate, Bill claims that the President's economic plan is unrealistic. His opponent, a professor, retorts by saying "the freshman has his facts wrong."
