>his stupid uneducated bimbo of a wife

that is most definitely not a fact, it is an opinion, namely your opinion. It's also a pointless and needlessly inflammatory insult that engenders no productive discussion. Would you say the same about the first lady of the US?

It might be a fact (I don't know), but certainly it detracts from your point. I think you should edit out the stuff about her.

It is the exact type of ad-hominem, inflammatory, and irrelevant distraction that this article is pointing out.
