On occasion they point out old or bad arguments that need to be put to bed, but a whole lot of it is misrepresentation.

Well, that leaves the creationist position with absolutely no arguments, then. What exactly is the creationist position then, and exactly what arguments does it use to try to debunk one of the most fundamental and solid theories in the biological sciences?

"Well, that leaves the creationist position with absolutely no arguments, then."

You base this on what?

"What exactly is the creationist position then"

There are two more-or-less cores to the creationist position:

(1) Multiple roots to the phylogenic tree (a polyphyletic tree instead of a monophyletic tree)

(2) A massive flood wiped out most life several thousand years ago

A summary of some of the points of evidence is here.
