I am a 29 year old single mother. I have lived a lot of life for my age and I always try and see the bright side of things. However, lately with the GOP uprising, things seem awfully dark. I am currently in school for marketing, but I do have 2 years in psychology. That being said, I do not claim to be a professional writer or journalist. I am human, I screw up - BUT I do verify any and all information with research to back up any claims I have, unless they are specifically stated as my opinion. I am very political and my opinions are my own. I am left-leaning, but I do have some republican views... depends on the topic. I am an open book.... got a question? Don't hesitate to ask! Please feel free to check out my blog and my Yahoo! Contributor page http://contributor.yahoo.com/user/834952/courtney_lynn.html Also, if you would like to add me to skype - courtney.lynn27

The difference is, they signed this document, to them it was probably a symbolic gesture, but to me it was more. Let me show you what the Pledge to America stated, in case you all forgot or wanted it wiped from your memory.

Dear Mr. President

I know I am going to get a lot of flak for this with my fellow democrats/liberals/progressives, whatever you want to label yourselves. However, I think we need to redirect our anger for a moment – just a moment. I wanted to share with you a letter I am writing to the President because I think it is important for all to see this.

We Are Not Pawns in the GOP’s Sick Game

Republicans across the country have tried to force their policies down Americans throats and they are using an age-old advertising trick of puffery. Puffery, for those who are not into marketing, is when you insert key words into the advertising of your product, service, or in this case, policy.

The GOP has decided not to figure out how to make the economy stable by getting the GDP up, which creates more products coming into the country than going out. Oh no, they have focused on redefining rape and cutting education.

Michele Bachmann – Woman of Mystery

Even though Michele Bachmann has become this shiny ‘rock star’ of the tea party movement, she remains this kind of elusive, mysterious woman when you think about it. Sure, we can read her bio on her website or even on Wikipedia, but what does it say really?
