iLiKE

What blogs are out there with outstanding examples of:

1. Economic advice to Barack Obama?
http://chandlermhood.blogspot.com/ "All companies with an annual revenue of $500 million or more that choose to sell their products in America must base at least 10% of their manufacturing workforce in America."
I chose this quote because chandler seems to really have his facts together. In his plan he gives a solid plan with percentages of his goals and it seems well thought out. I also noticed that he quoted a president for his historical referance "During his first inaugural speech, FDR said, "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself..." " and the way he connected it was strong, he ended his letter to obama with hope for the american people!

2. Literary Analysis?

Out of dagneys whole literary analysis i think that the ending is what stuck out the most to me because she wrote it in a way where she could simply have the end be the whole paper. she just tied it all in. "The theme of The Great Gatsby is that despite all of the luxuries that money can bring, losing sight of the people around you can be fatal. This theme was creatively displayed using a number of literary devices, including irony, allegory, and symbolism. "

3. Historical Writing?
http://jlucer0.blogspot.com/2008/09/gun-control.html
"The decision had been based on the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. According to the article, Justice Antonin Scalia states that the Constitution protects a citizen's right to bear arms and that the ban is a direct violation of the Second Amendment"
She states a fact of history and then she makes the direct connection in your face and clear to understand. I really like this quote because it sounds aggressively smart....

4. Anything else that makes blogs great?
