I really don't have time to read all that stuff.
When I don't, I skim through it and look for the most glaring errors, then expose those. When creationists offer up things, it's rarely difficult to find major flaws. MississippiMan, for example, brought up the red herring of textbook disclaimers even though ID pushers are demanding a hell of a lot more than that (and the disclaimers themselves have spurious justification).

no transitionals;
evolution is a house of cards;
evolution as currently taught cannot remotely begin to stand up under real scrutiny (needs to be taught differently, I suppose);
the standard conspiracy theory (frenzied efforts to see that it never receives real scrutiny in the public eye [as opposed to the private eye]; "endlessly and frantically propped up for a hundred-fifty years);
and a couple of new ones -- If Darwin were alive, he would almost certainly reject his own theory (a variation, I guess, on the theme that Darwin recanted on his death bed), and my personal favorite, the previously unexplored concept of ironic hypocrisy.
On the whole, a long winded recitation of nothing new. Except for that deliciously bizarre idea of "ironic hypocrisy." That needs some development.
