OpinionHead.com New Author and Subscription Drive!
Hello everybody, I am starting a campaign to get new Authors, and new email subscriptions to this site, we have a lot of visitors and email subscribers, but I would like to increase it, so, take a look, if you like the site, please subscribe, you can either follow this link Subscribe to OpinionHead.com by Email Or you can use the form below. Again, thank you, current subscribers, the more subscribers I get, the more motivated I get!
As you know, I can get a little bit long winded, so, I feel that I should tell you why I am asking you to subscribe to OpinionHead.com, yes, that motivation thing is important, but, there is a much larger reason, I want to help spread the word, to help promote the Tea Parties, the “awakening” of our wonderful country that I have been dreaming of!
When I started this site, I did it for this reason, it was like I could see what was happening, but there were very few others like me, now, I don’t feel quite so isolated, people are starting to stand up and say “Hey, this big government, big spending, and trampling of the constitution crap just ain’t gonna cut it!” I want people, regardless of their opinions, left, right, or middle, to come here and share those opinions!
So, if you agree with me, if you think I am insane, if you believe that GW Bush is God or Satan was a great president or just an idiot, if you think Obama is the messiah or the antichrist, if you think Rush is Right, or wrong, it doesn’t matter! The whole point is for us all to come together, learn why we have these different views, and then realize that we have more in common than we thought, and then maybe, just maybe, we could all get along! If we can get together, we can solve our problems, but, we need to stand “together”, so, register, get the email subscription, and post a comment or be an author, it is up to you!
If you want to be an author, Register, then use the contact form, find me on Twitter, whatever, just let me know and I will set it up. Thanks everybody!

Lets have a Tea Party in College Station!
March 23, 2009 by OpinionHead
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!

When is a good idea bad? We the People need Help!
March 23, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under Opinions and Attitudes
This is a post I thought I would never write, but, after a weekend of following the 912 Project very closely, participating and writing many a post myself, I can see where the whole idea went wrong! America is just way too divided!
Like it or not, all of us are different, way different, I mean how the heck do you think Obama got elected to begin with? I love the thought that we could all “get along”, but this does not seem to be the case. There are so many people, citing the very same things as a reason to disagree, what is that?
As terrible as this is going to sound, the differences are not at this point insignificant enough, for us all to get over ourselves! I know that I am an opinionated asshole, but I have found that I am way less of an asshole than many others out there! I honestly believe that in order for us all to get back to that 9/12 feeling, we are going to have to have another 9/11 event! The back-biting, name calling, and so on are absolutely unbearable, and I was not the one being attacked!
The one being attacked is, America, yes, our beloved country. Why do I say this? Because it is the very things that our country is about, our freedoms, our liberties, our laws, and our very way of life! Some just cannot move on, they have been taught that anything that does not sound like what they have heard in the past is wrong, “We the People” have become deaf! “We the People” have become, “We the Mob”!
Though most of the “idiots” belong to the same group, and their numbers are few, very few, like maybe 5 or 6 out of 190,198+ it is becoming obvious that we need help in this country. We need to all learn that right is right and wrong is wrong. I am so disappointed, I feel like I did that first time I got lied to by my first girlfriend. Glenn Beck didn’t let me down, my fellow Americans did. We truly are too didvided to get along!
These divisions include everything from rich vs poor to blue vs green! What would seem obvious to me, just seems like too much of a reach for others. Why can’t we all just get along? I fear that our country is headed for a really bad spot, maybe like once before. I am not worried that “my side” will lose, I am worried that “my country” will.
Watch this video, maybe it will inspire you, maybe it will make you mad, I just hope that it helps you see which side you are on!

1900 Percent Beer Tax: The Democrats have gone crazy!
February 18, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under Opinions and Attitudes
When I heard this, I thought I was going to hear a punchline, but no, this is for real! The Democrats in Oregon are trying to get a bill passed that would increase the tax on a barrel of beer (that is two kegs for you and me) from $2.60 to $49.61, this could add as much as $2-$4 per six pack! Some of my favorite beer comes from Oregon, and no, this would not effect me here in Texas, where we already pay high beer taxes, but, it would cause big layoffs or basically the shutdown of these small breweries, that is just wrong!
The reason they want to do this is to raise money for the treatment of drugs and alcoholism! Now, this just doesn’t make sense, give the drunks free beer it would be ok then! As far as the drugs go, I hear that some of the best weed comes from Oregon, say they are already covered! My point is, we all need to start watching the government very closely, since Obama got elected, the Democrats are going nuts! If you want to read more on this, read this article, “Outrage brewing over proposed 1,900% beer tax hike“.
As it is, the Lefties have already taken corn away from us to make fuel, corn which is used in many beers (not the good ones like Rogue) that you buy, like Bud, Miller, etc. Corn is supposed to be food not gas, use oil for gas, not food! Ethanol is for drinking, not driving! We need to drill and build refineries, not increase the cost of food! This is just one more step in Fedzilla’s plan to take control of our lives, watch out America, it could get really ugly if we let this kind of thing happen!

Planet of the Apes: Have you ever wondered?
January 1, 2009 by OpinionHead
Filed under Opinions and Attitudes
I am very sorry,what I may write, could cause some to wonder exactly what I mean, so, my intention is to do nothing but………….provoke others, to wonder what I do!!
For some strange reason, this series of movies, that range from like 1968-1973 and is 5 movies long,which I have seen many times since I was a kid, but for some reason, I watched a bit closer tonight! (Nothing else was on) I also noticed this group of movies has been listed for at least a month or two, which added to my curiosity. (at least some, if not all)
There was something that just almost made me mess on myself! (Yeah, it is new years, and I have swallowed a case of beer) but these classic movies also represent a past, almost duplicate of the movies!
Could it be that these old flicks, represent, the actual, racial history of our country, in some twisted way? As I said, I almost messed myself when I watched tonight, and, for more than one reason!
Wasn’t the old leader of the NRA, Charlton Heston, and wasn’t he the main character in the first movie? Hey, some of this is before my time! somebody help me!
This s a curious pattern, what do apes and the current times have in common? You tell me!
Personally, i do not think that the people involved, much less the times, could ever overlap, this is just the ……………………I had better shut up!!

Another New Section: OpinionHead News!
January 19, 2008 by OpinionHead
Filed under Introductions, Opinions and Attitudes
One week ago I decided to start OpinionHead.com, and now we have the main OpinionHead Blog finished, the OpinionHead Forums are also up and running and the newest section OpinionHead News has also been created! No, the content part isn’t finished yet, but the hard part of modifying the template is.
The content is going to be about News, anything and everything that I can find, all organized into sections, ready to be bookmarked! I don’t know about you, but I spend a lot of time going from one place to another trying to find out whats going on in the world. If you are into the News, this section of the site is for you!
Why would you want more than one source for your News? Simple, to see just how biased the media actually is! We all have our opinions, and rightly so, but why is it that opinions are like butt-holes, everybody has one, and they all stink! Maybe I can explain what I believe is the reason for this. We develop our opinions from what we believe to be true, nobody has an opinion that they don’t believe, so why doesn’t everybody have the same opinion? We develop our opinions from our environment, our friends, our family, our bosses, and what we hear, see, or read in the news!
If there were only one source for our news, we would all get to where we believed the same thing, that is why dictators close down as many TV, radio, and news sources as they can, and leave but one, the one that pushes the dictators own views, and opinionsl
Just look at Hugo Chavez what did he do? Why is it, that when the U.S. first freed Iraq, we helped get the local radio broadcasters up and running, and even set up a pro-U.S. station. Here is one site that can help exlpain it.
The troops even hand out radios in both Iraq and Afghanistan, so that the local people can hear what is happening and don’t have to rely solely on word of mouth, passed from one person to another, we all know how accurate that is.
Anyway, back to my point, having a biased source for your news, leads us to also be biased! Didn’t you notice that when Bill Clinton was President, it didn’t matter what he did, he was the darling of the news, but why? That I can’t tell you, but what I do know is that that much bias in the news is just wrong! Didn’t you ever hear the term Clinton News Network (CNN)? The media has become ever more liberal in our wonderfully free country. Today most of the TV stations only show the news that promotes their opinions, and those are mostly “Progressive” and not very “Conservative”, why? Again, I don’t know, but I do have my OPINION!
So, if the TV stations and newspapers are all leaniing to the left, what keeps those on the right informed, and equally as biased? Radio talk shows that are successful, tend to be of the conservative viewpoint, why? Again, all I have is my opinion.
What is the goal of this site you might ask? I believe, that if enough information is available, and can be seen in one place, the individual reading it can decide for themselves. If you see the same story, written with opposing viewpoints, maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle? That is my view on this, and is the reason that I am putting the OpinionHead News section together.
Anyone else that shares this belief, and wants to get involved may do so. All of those that believe that “their” view is correct, regardless of which side, left, right or middle is also welcome to help, that is what it is all about! So, keep checking out the site, you will see the changes, and if you want to get involved, just go to the Contact Us page and fill out the form, help me out here, I am just one person, I need you!
