Courtney Hodgeabout Number wordsCourtneyLynn26@gmail.comIT’S JUST MY OPINION byCourtney Hodge

Hodge / Just Opinion / 2PrologueI am a liberal democrat. I am a left winger, who is eco friendly, and a tree hugger that believes in pro choice and is anti war (with the wrong countries). I am a self absorbed whiner who bitches about things that do not make sense. Okay, now that the name calling is out of theway, I would like to introduce myself to you. I am a twenty six year old single mother of onevery precocious boy. I am a daughter, a friend, and a lover. I believe in the greater good of mankind, yes I believe there still is a greater good. I know about love and hate, war and peace,famine and fulfillment, truth and lies. I should not know half of this, I am twenty six. I know thedifference between unconditional love and unadulterated hate. I have seen soldiers coming homewith missing limbs or not coming home at all. I have witnessed Mother Nature at her best and ather worst. The only presidents I know are a Bush and a Clinton. Why am I telling you all of this?Well, because it is important to know where I am coming from before you read this book that isfull of knowledgeand insight. (Told you I was self absorbed.)I have so many things I am passionate about that I feel everyone should be so lucky to readwhat I think. I have been told by many I should be a politician, but my response is that I am wayto honest and straight forward. I want to talk about this country and how we as a human racemanaged to screw it up. I want to talk about religion and why it is a crock of potatoes. (I amtrying to refrain from using some choice words, so just laugh at the analogies.) I figure, if BillO’Reilly and Keith Olberman can get paid thousands to sit and talk about their ideas andopinions, I should do the same. I am just one small town girl with a lot to talk about.I have been in many arguments over this stupid thing called democracy it makes me sick. Ilove Obama; not in that way – sick minded. I love everything he stands for and everything he

Hodge / Just Opinion / 3represents. That has gotten me into some hot water with my friends and family who are mostlyrepublicans and the rest are Clinton supporters. The arguments, which I like to refer to as“debates” have been so heated and so one sided, I sat down one day and decided to write a book based on my opinions. That way, you can disagree, but everything I have to say is written, so if you want to argue, go ahead I have stated my peace.I think that is the one great freedom that no one can take away, not even George Bush.Freedom of speech has new meaning to me anymore. I see these other countries fighting andkilling each other over things that were said, it makes me proud to be an American. Yes, oh myGod, a democrat who is proud, wow. I hate having things defined like democrat and republican.Why can’t we be justpeople? We were just people after September 11

, there was no color, noreligion, no party affiliates, just – people. It was nice for a moment. Then we went to war andthe entire country was in an uproar; for good reason mind you.Okay, enough boring you, let’s get into the good stuff. Let’s talk about the real issues nowthat we are over the pleasantries. This is just the prologue, it was meant to draw you into this book. I know I hate it when these things go on forever and you wonder what the darn book could be about because everything was covered in the prologue. So here it goes, I hope you enjoy! IraqYep, I am digging right into this one. Let me start off by saying I fully support and thank thetroops who have given their lives, limbs, and comforts. With that being said, I am completely
