“Liberals Side With Terrorists; Again.” [Weblog entry.] Bohography. 18 February 2008. <http://bohography.wordpress.com/2008/02/18/liberals-side-with-terrorists-again/>
This blog article and overall blog seem like they will be useful to my research because one topic I focused on in my unit 1 paper was how the liberals are seen as terrorist supporters. This blog is from a veteran’s perspective so it is seen from a point of view that many people don’t get to see since the news and media try to hide the negatives of the war. There is also present political information incorporated on the blog so that can also give useful feedback in reference to other issues that affect the war such as the current presidential candidates.
“Iraq Fund-Raising Approved.” [Weblog entry.] 30 October 2003. <http://prowardotcom.typepad.com/prowardotcom/2003/10/iraq_fundraisin.html>
By having opinions based on the pro-war point of view it is easier to form opinions of your own since the anti-war views are the ones who are heard mostly. Since a question I had was why are we still fighting when thousands of soldiers are coming home severely injured, this blog works to add in positive aspects of the war. It is good to also have views that contradict what you believe and are writing about to help work with the information you have and push you to find more.
