Watch this video in which Former President George W. Bush announces
operation Iraqi Freedom and respond to the following questions.
Please understand that this is a listening exercise, so you are trying to
describe the rhetorical situation the way President Bush frames it.
(Remember that a rhetorical situation is the circumstance of an event,
and consists of an issue, an audience, and a set of constraints.)
Before you begin to write, please delay forming an interpretation of what is
being said, in order to be able to as accurately as possible represent
what Bush himself says.
Question 1: Who does President Bush address as his audience? What is he
hoping to change/persuade them of?
Question 2: What does President Bush cite as his exigencies? In other
words, why does he claim this military action must happen now?
Question 3: What constraints are there on President Bush for changing the
rhetorical situation?
