Apparently then you wouldn't know an intelligent response if it was under your nose!
Get out the dictionary and look up "Straw man" & "ad nauseam"

straw man n. 1. A person who is set up as cover or a front for a questionable enterprise. 2. An argument or opponent set up so as to be easily refuted or defeated. 3. A bundle of straw made into the likeness of a man and often used as a scarecrow.

ad nau·se·am (²d nô“z¶-…m) adv. To a disgusting or ridiculous degree; to the point of nausea. [Latin ad, to + nauseam, accusative of nausea, sickness.]
