1. Mosh:Eminem! O_o www.youtube.com/watch?v=8M9MTle-8AM –Start at 4:27

2. “Scrutinize every word, memorize every line I spit it once, refuel, reenergize, and rewind I give sight to the blind, mind sight through the mind I exercise my right to express when I feel it's time ..”

3. Eminem’s overall argument is…. • He is telling his fans to fight against Bush and his war in Iraq. (protest the war and bring our troops home) • He is telling us that we need to do something about this mess we are in because "we're responsible, for this monster, this coward, That we have empowered". • & how there is still racial profiling and unfair benefits between upper class and middle class.

4. “They ain't gonna stop us, they can't, we're stronger now more then ever, They tell us no we say yea, they tell us stop we say go, Rebel with a rebel yell, raise hell we gonna let em know.."

5. Hmmm… Eminem is persuading the whole nation (mainly the young people) to use their voices. A lot of people feel the government is shady and corrupt. And he is saying don’t just talk about it, be about it. Stand up and revolt if we’re having an issue. Keeping quiet is not going to make a change.

6. “Let the President answer on high anarchy Strap him with AK-47, let him go Fight his own war, let him impress daddy that way No more blood for oil, we got our own battles to fight on our soil..”

7. Chronologically… • Intro:“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America ..“ • First stanza: “A father who has grown up with a fatherless past..” • His chorus: is about how the audience should follow and trust in him about what he has to say. He will help them find their voices, and through all this they will make a change in Washington because millions of voices will be heard. • Second stanza: “Stomp, Push, Shove Much, Fk Bush, until they bring our troops home o…” • Third stanza: “Someone's trying to tell us something, maybe this is God just saying we're responsible for this monster, this coward, that we have empowered ..” • Last Stanza: “and assemble our own army, to disarm this weapon of mass destruction..”

8. “We gonna charge, we gonna stomp, we gonna march through the swamp We gonna mosh through the marsh, take us right through the doors, come on..”

9. Facts. • Eminem's song is informal. There is no organization and it's not neatly and delivered. He uses bold words such as "scrutinize" and "leading through the darkness." –As he is rapping, I can see the image being painted in my head. •  The dialogue is him speaking directly to the audience. It's somewhat of an entertaining PSA. •  The Chorus is and him slandering Bush has repetition. Also the words hope and strength are used several times.

10. “Come along, follow me as I lead through the darkness As I provide just enough spark, that we need to proceed…”

11. Facts Continued… • The sentence structure is chopped up. He pauses and delivers his verses spaced out. He does do run-on sentences… • The kids voices in the beginning (singing the POA) get your attention, and the music is awesome and powerful too. The video matches extremely well with the song. The animation is humorous yet informing.

12. “And as we proceed, to mosh through this desert storm, in these closing statements, if they should argue, let us beg to differ, as we set aside our differences, and assemble our own army, to disarm this weapon of mass destruction that we call our president…”

13. They used their voices and….

14. “Till the light, at the end, of the tunnel, we gonna fight…”
