Homework blog...

I decided to respond to part C of #6. the first question it asked was should everyone be willing to make sacrafices during a time of war. I responded by saying yes, because if the men and women are making sacrafices to die and fight for us when they may not even support the war, why should we sit here and live a fabulous life. They are makeing way lager sacrafices for us than we will have too, so I think people should be willing to make sacrafices. The next question partC asked was, should people pay higher taxes? I think this can be debated both ways, and I am honestly torn on this question. I guess in order to help the war proceed we may have to pay higher taxes, but in this economy I believe that would be difficult to do. The third part is saying how far ae Americans willing to go if they support the war, and I believe that if they truely support it than they are willing to do anything. Lastly Bush was tellig people they can have their cake and eat it too, because he was not highering taxes while in war. Therefore people were not hurting from the war or having to pay anything anything for it.

chapter 1...

So this whole chapter one... is alittle boring to me. I have to be honest i skimmed through the whole chapter and never actually read it. I do remember the part on political topics. The topic of politics is rhetorical to me, because I have written many current events papers and given my veiwpoint on opinion papers. The political aspects of papers ar enot just about history and what not, it involves the economy and life events. The negative side that many people see in politics also turns them off to writing about it. One needs to find their special interests in the topic they are writing about so they can be passionate and write alot. Writing is a fun way to get your point and opinions aross, using analagies(spelling might be off) or other types of ways. This chapter mentions how this book could only be given to first or second year students, because it is understandable to them. It says how it may seem abstract now but throughout the book is it all becomes concrete. Hopefully this explains some points in chapter 1:)

the 4 freedoms....

On thursday we all went to a lecture/ presentation on the four freedoms. To be honest I was not positive if I knew what the four freedoms were. However since I went and saw the photos and heard the speech I am now more educated on the topic. We are going to have to make our own creative project on one of the freedoms, which I gotta say im a bit nervouse for. I am not artistic or creative at all haha... so this will be a challenge. It will be interseting tough to see what freedom we all choose and how we view it:)
