The Fox Nation:A new Website for everyone!
March 30, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under News, Opinions and Attitudes
I had heard rumors, but now it is official! TheFoxNation.com is a new site, and as of the time of this article, it is just over two hours old, and I have already posted about 5 comments! I have also written three articles here, and coincedentally, wrote about one topic found there, but got ideas for another, from there!
This looks like a very nice site, but, I have to think that somehow, Glenn Beck’s success with The912Project.com has an influence on this coming about! Hey, I am just sayin’, I think this is a good thing!
The site links to other sites, and the articles found there, and then you, me and everybody else can go and post out comments on these articles, hmm, kind of like this article, only no opinions! I have to say, the site is a very clean looking site, very neat and organized, the designers there did a great job! This said, it is almost “sterile” looking, if you know what I mean, but it is a beautiful website. I hope that everyone enjoys it, I know that I will!

Filed under Tea Parties
I have already seen lists of Tea Parties all over that state of Texas, but not yet for the Bryan/College Station area. So, if you want to set one up, or if you know more about this and it is already happening, post a comment below, lets get this party started!
I have found another site that is composing lists of the Tea Parties, look for more info there.
By the way, we do face some opposition, read this article on the Daily Kos, for some reason they only see these protests as anti-Obama, that is not what it is about, but, you may want to watch out for these nut jobs, they could cause trouble!
Here is another video reporting what is happening, spread the word!

Who would you hire, the one that is Smart or the other one?
March 11, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under Opinions and Attitudes, Videos
Now I know what is wrong with this country, we are too smart! I just found an article on RightWingNews.com that proves what I am saying! Well, if you watch this video, from that article, and believe it, then America has a problem, we are too smart! Follow the link to We Need To Redefine Merit and read that article, this is the basis for my opinion here, although my opinion, as usual, goes into this subject with a bit more of a critical attitude , read that article, watch the video, then read on……..
Ok, this Professor Guinier, is basically saying that diversity is better than intelligence. Intelligence, which one aquires from studying, not from having a rich family, should be the basis for hiring someone, but, she is saying that a person that only managed to retain a small portion of the subject material that was covered in the test, is just as, or more qualified because it was different from what the others had answered? Is she kidding? That would be the same as picking the one that only got one answer right, but it was the one answer that everyone that scored 9 of 10 got wrong, I would call it a lucky guess, not a sign of diversity! I imagine she would see that person as a genious?
I don’t know about now, but when I was in school, scoring a 70, or 7 out of 10 as she stated, was a C, and if the person at the top of the group tested, only managed a C, I feel that all of the teachers should be fired! If the person that made a 50, or 5 out of 10, an F, would be who she picked, for diversity’s sake, then this highlights an even bigger problem. Since Professor Guinier is a professor, it makes me wonder just how she grades her students, what kind of curve does she use? If she is failing the kids that do the best on the test, for diversity’s sake, then she should be removed, and so should any teacher, or professor, that cannot teach well enough that at least 80% of the class score a 90 , a B,or better! This 80% of the class passing would be the teacher getting a B on their ability to teach!
When I was a kid, the kids that scored less than a B got picked on by the ones that did better, individual responsibility was backed up by peer pressure, it was a matter of pride! What happens when you remove the rewards from life and make it ok to fail a test, yet still pass? Everybody becomes “the same”, no one is any “better” than anyone else, is that diversity? Is this the goal of the progressive liberals? What a concept, what a terrible future for our country, is this what you want your kids to learn?
Americans used to try and be the best, what happened? First, I guess you need to take Professor Guinier’s audience into account, she is basically telling a group of people that just happen to be part of a group that doesn’t, as a “group” do as well on the affore mentioned test, is that because “they” are less capable? No! All people, all colors, red, blue, green, whatever, should be “expected” to pass the same test, what the heck could race have to do with a test? Sorry, I am old, so, the test she is referring to, I have never seen, but, when I went to school, ALL of the kids got the same books, had the same teachers, and of course took the same test!
Her saying that the ones that pass the test have rich families, I take as an insult, not to just me, but to any and everyone, that was NOT rich, yet managed to study and pass a test! This Professor Guinier even knocked Obama around because he obviously passed a few tests himself, one time I have admit Obama did something right, he passed!
I am sorry, not everyone is as “smart” as everyone else, but, if you are in a classroom, regardless of the subject being taught, then you should be able to learn enough to at least get a 7 out of ten score, heck, that means that you didn’t know 30% of the answers! If you cannot pass a certain subject, then you need to focus on another! Could you imagine the NBA with a bunch of short, fat, old, white guys, just for the sake of diversity? I don’t think so!
Yes, diversity is important, very important, but, diversity happens naturally, not everyone can be a lawyer, a mechanic, a computer geek, a brain surgeon, or an NBA player, or whatever, nor do we all desire to be, we all have to learn what our strengths are and focus on them, but, if everybody gets the same scores on everything they do, just for the sake of “fairness” , and no one is better at anything than anyone else, this will take us down the wrong road, an ugly road, a road where “The People” actually want everyone to be the same, one where we elect someone that promises to take care of everything because we are no longer rewarded for competing to be the best and take care of ourselves , a road where a dictator takes over and ….hmm

Iran’s Ahmadinejad: How long will the world put up with him?
February 17, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under Political Rants
Everytime you turn around this guy is giving the world the finger, how long will this be allowed to last? He has stated so many times, everyone should have heard it by now, that he wants to get rid of Isreal, come on world, wake up!
Here is an article on the most recent outburst, found on FoxNews.com, Iran’s Ahmadinejad: ‘Not Feasible’ for Israel to Exist, does any one out there even care?
I am sorry if I get out of line on this one, but this Ahmadinijad guy is just plain evil! I can envision even more from him since he no longer has any reason to fear the U.S., after all, Obama is going to go hang out with him at some point, right? So, what kind of message are we sending the world? As I see it, Obama getting elected says: “We Surrender!” Now that Obama and Palosi, have guaranteed us to be broke for another century or two, what can we do?
Simple, here is my plan; First, we call up Isreal, tell them hey, you might want to get everybody out, you can have a chunk of Arizona, down by the border, that way they can handle security there. Second, we fire off a few dozen of our ICBM’s and make the middle east glow! Hmm, now I sound as bad as Ahmad the Nutjob, but I can’t think of any other way, and after all, the nukes are paid for! As bad as that sounds, you sometimes have to get extreme when the consequences of doing nothing are even more extreme! You know, “Fight fire with fire!”
Actually, I don’t think we have to worry about doing anything, Isreal knows how Obama feels about them, so I imagine they will take care of it themselves!

Censorship on the Internet? Wow, what is next?
February 17, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under Opinions and Attitudes
I think I have heard it all now! Check out this article on NewsBusters.org, Rep. Henry Waxman Wants to Apply Censorship Doctrine to the Internet, I mean, after all, I am a fair and balanced kind of guy when it comes to news, I listen to, or read news sources of all types, doesn’t everyone? Well, I really do not think so, here on OpinionHead.com, I have attempted to have authors of all types, some have posted a comment or two, maybe even an article, but they have not stuck around, I am not sure why, since the first day, this site has been open to everyone, I get emails, from some, that are so nasty, I can’t even use them on my site, and yes, always liberals, but many register and subscribe, so, what am I to do?
I know for a fact that Conservatives, both the far right type and the moderate type, like me, ar so outnumbered it is crazy to even think it isn’t. From the way it sounds, they (the liberals) just want to stop anyone from having an opposing point of view. Have you ever noticed that many of the more popular conservative sites have comment posters that are so far left and out of their mind, they make Palosi look moderate! I wonder if that would count? Anyway, read the story, it is very interesting to say the least!
