English Rhetoric Paper Essay I think the essay could be looked with consideration of logos is a great way; the reader should be able to use reason and logic to judge the essay. Since logos are appeal based on logic and reason, everyone will reason their different ways without being influenced by the article or the author. Let me shortly show how I think the rest two would not be best in the essay here:- Pathos being emotion based and the fact that this essay seems to have been written by an author who is very bitter with bush might win the readers sympathy without proper reasoning. The whole essay condemns bush, it brings about his history not sure if it is true or not and that’s more why I would rather consider logos as far as possible because I can only see the authors side and the list of questions which I don’t know the answers to and not even aware if bush answered. Ethos, the appeal based on the reputation of the author did not win my side here on this essay, the author claims to have been slammed by uttering the‘d’ word gives me a negative attitude towards him. I reason differently especially on the part that Bush is accused to have sent the sons and daughters of America to their deaths†¦sometimes for achievement to be attained there has to be sacrifice and I don’t mean to say that the victims should be sacrificed. Having a president who would pretend not to notice the threat of weapons of mass destruction and ties Saddam had with Al Qaeda would be a challenge big enough. He would have failed in his duties as a president. America needed to be protected so did other parts of the world. Honestly the September Eleven attack killed many people right at homeland, most of them as they did their businesses. The president knew that there had to be war first then peace and hence ‘I am a war President’ statement which was a reality. Logical Fallacy committed here is ‘informal fallacy’ whereby arguments however good or even based on true premises must not be a 100% true in the end result. He wrote ‘We are a forgiving people, and though you will not be returned to the White House†¦Ã¢â‚¬â„¢ yet it happened contrary to the statement. â€Å"And then you had the audacity to prance around in a soldier’s uniform on an aircraft carrier proclaiming â€Å"Mission Accomplished†. —the mission has really been accomplished, Saddam is no more. â€Å"You did this while misleading their parents and the nation with bogus lies about weapons of mass destruction and scary phony Saddam ties to al Qaeda†. The issue was true, it was there and we knew that.
