Questions of Similarity

It seems to me that most of us who have posted during week 1 have all really had the same style of writing. Whether one person talks about something else, or uses different terms, one can still break down all the writing in the first week into a summarization of similarites. These similarities are the main questions that everyone brings to the discussion. Questions of why have we been there for so long, or why are we still there? Everything we have written is great, but always seems to come back to the main essential question of why are we in Iraq? So I think the same old questions always seemed to pop up throughout the first week. People wrote about what they thought only to have it lead back to these raised questions about the war. I don't believe their was much detail other than I'm not affected by it, or I don't take notice anymore. Or maybe talk about the media covering things up. Again, why are we over there? As we move on to these later weeks, I think we see a change, because we have taken a look at the war from different perspectives through reading and project one. I think we are analyzing the war alot more, which is what I am doing in this blog entry, "analyzing". We are taking a closer look at the war, and a better look into what we are actually writing, and I believe everyone is doin that. This is another similarity as we move deeper into the year. So now instead of always circling back to these main questions, we will pick them apart and get into people's minds so that the question becomes one that has a great answer.
