Rehtorical Selection

For my rehtorical analysis I am going to read President Bush's address to the cabinet on September 12, 2001. This address deals with the acts of terror that occured on September 11, 2001. The Presidents speech includes many differnt types of rehtorical devices that are meant to convince the audience of the terrible, cowardly acts committed, and how war was a logical retaliation. http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/gwbush911cabinetroomaddress.htm

greg--

i personally think this is a good choice, mainly because the consequences of how this speech is received are incredibly crucial. this delivery raises some very costly stakes, and the justification for these stakes needs attention.

this is a good undertaking on your part.

thanks
