A rhetorical question is a question that has an obvious answer.  When rhetorical questions are used in place of real evidence, fallacy occurs. Because the writer assumes that his/her audience agrees with the question, he/she does not intend to learn anything new. Therefore, he/she does not make a true argument.

Rhetoric is never about discourse in the abstract, it is always concerned with directing one's words with specific intentions towards specific audiences. If you're in that specific audience, yes, if not no.

I've never run into an invalid question.
