Response #4

The next blog which I will be writing about is called "dollarish" and can be found at dollarish.com . The entry is called "Mandatory Drug Testing for Welfare?" and was written on January 23, 2010. It was written by guest author MagisterTom@xanga .

While the entry was about an "ethos" topic, it was written from a left-wing point of view and appealed very much to the pathos. (A trend which seems characteristic of left wing literature, where as right wing seems to appeal more to the logos.) It was written in opposition to the proposed mandatory drug tests on welfare applicants. MagisterTom used the phrase "what about the children" to back up "Do we punish the child of the mother who refuses to get off the drugs by not providing for them?"
