Read the paragraph from a student’s rhetorical analysis essay.
In addition, President Obama uses strongly loaded or connotative words to conjure vivid images in his audience’s mind and further his appeal to emotion. He punctuates his argument by saying, "When dictators commit atrocities, they depend upon the world to look the other way until those horrifying pictures fade from memory, but these things happened. The facts cannot be denied." Here, Obama appeals to logic as well as emotion. He reasons that the horror of the images from Syria must lead nations to take action. He asks the American people to consider the facts of what they have seen and support military action to stop what is happening in Syria.
