Putting Poor Children Second

An article in The New York Times under the editorial section it is dedicated to the children. The article that I found interesting was “Putting Poor Children Second.” The article talks about that President is finding ways to cut medicine for poor children. The message that the author of this article is trying to say is to stop Mr. Bush to waste money for his ideological priorities. The author of this article uses some fallacies to create more dramatic effect on the readers. The fallacies that he uses are called straw man or fallacy of extension by showing exaggerated reasons for President Bush’s justification of vetoing bills. If you had a chance to have a dinner with the President Bush would you bring up the topic of Medicare for poor children? In my geography class the teacher told us to name anyone who you would wanted to have invited for a dinner, and one of the students said President Bush so she could give him a piece of her mind. If I would have gotten a dinner with the president I would talk about poor children and all children in general because they are our future generation.
