Talking about Comments



I've been reading your comments and responding to a few of them. Two things:

Thing One: I expect EVERYONE to post a comment every day. If you are sitting there listening to music you've got the wrong idea! If you don't know what to write look at the assignment.

You are supposed to be writing about your rights as a citizen. Which Amendment to the Constitution did you research? What can you say about what you learned? Think of it this way. You goal for your audience is to teach them about the Amendment you researched!

Thing Two: The idea of a comment is to demonstrate what you are learning. Some of the comments remind me of things you might yell out in a movie theater at a horror movie! "Don't go in there!!!"

It's okay to post something funny but make a point about the history!!! My goal is to help you write about history at a level that will help you pass the Regents!!!

You've got to practice writing to get better at it. Otherwise we're going to yell "Don't go in there!!!" When you are heading into the Regents!!!!

Peace!!!

Mr. Neff

John McCain does not want to let gay people have civil rights as gay people. His base is the relgious right. If he ever came out for Gay Rights that would be the end for him.

The Democrats are the party of the Rainbow Coalition and way more likely to be pro-gay agenda.
I doubt Obama is against Gay Marriage but I'm not sure. I suggest you check his offical website for his opinion.

As far as the draft, regardless of who gets in the next President might have to reinstate the draft. The United States Military forces are stretched to the limit. Too many Soldiers have been on active duty for way too many tours of duty and in harms way.

Peace,

Mr. Neff
