<p>I am from Houston, I love Houston, but, the Houston Chronicle has pretty much always been a liberal, left of center, newspaper, everyone knows that, and I guess that is ok, as long as everyone knows it, but, when I went to start reading what the world was saying about Beck&#8217;s rally this morning, I was almost floored when I found this article by Kathleen McKinley, <a title="read more here" href="http://blogs.chron.com/texassparkle/2010/08/post_42.html?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+houstonchronicle%2Ftexassparkle+%28Reader+blog%3A+TexasSparkle%29" target="_blank">My Thoughts On The Restoring Honor Rally</a>, please take the time to read it, she wrote what I was going to write! I am going to keep an eye on her! <img src='http://opinionhead.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' title="icon wink photo" />  ( <a title="read more here" href="http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/44901/" target="_blank">see what the media had to say</a>)</p>
<p>So, since she already wrote what I was going to, I will move on to an &#8220;I told ya so&#8221; kind of thing, if you will look at the picture of the crowded mall, you will notice that it is FULL! A few days before the rally, Glenn Beck pointed out what it meant if there were X people in certain areas, and from tho looks of this photo, there were people everywhere people could be! All I can say is, wow! I knew a lot of folks would show up, but dang, I thought that most would be like me and watch it on TV or the internet, in fact, here is a screen-shot I took during the live &#8220;Ustream&#8221; feed on Facebook, which had about 200,000 viewers while I was watching.</p>
<p>This<img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-1117" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" title="8-28-10-screenshot-palin-beck" src="http://opinionhead.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/8-28-10-screenshot-palin-beck-300x200.png" alt="8 28 10 screenshot palin beck 300x200 Were you there?" width="300" height="200" /> one was towards the end, after all of the preachers, rabbis, and all had come up on the stage, which was pretty impressive on its own. I mean think about it, he had someone from pretty much every known religion (that believes in one God) on the planet up on that stage, to show unity, and that no matter which group you belong to, getting back to God was the way to restore our own individual honor, which, in turn, would restore the honor of our country.</p>
<p>For those that are not, &#8220;believers&#8221;, after all of this, you should be, and in fact, if you attended or watched this rally, you had church! Since the Word of God never returns void, this was a spiritual explosion! No, not like a fire-cracker, but a giant blast of God Power, that no doubt will get the far left screaming in pain! I don&#8217;t believe that there has ever been a TV preacher of any kind ever get this many people to attend the same meeting at the same time, Glory be to God, Beck had Church!</p>

<p>The clock was ticking, and Bush was at the end of his presidency and the liberals were beginning to start talking about Hillary, the Republicans were in disarray and the future was a bit bleak for them. Then, the new kid, someone who no one knew anything about, Barack Obama hit the seen, and suddenly, everything was different, that housing bubble was bursting, and the issues were changing, and the economy was getting ready to take a serious dive, but, what was it, that pushed it over the edge? FEAR!</p>
<p>Yes, it was fear, but fear of what? Was it fear that the liberals were about to take over? Was it fear that life as it had been was about to change? Was it fear, that the artificially over-priced housing market was about to reset, as it should? Or maybe, the final straw was that those that had a clue, could see that Obama was going to be elected, and that he, the most liberal senator, quite probably would do things that would cause our country to look completely different when he took over? Was it that some people, actually listened to the things that Obama said, and could see through his lies? I contend that it was all of the above, and then some, it was the fear of the unknown!</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1109" title="stupid-people" src="http://opinionhead.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/stupid-people.jpg" alt="stupid people A lesson in Humilitity!" width="300" height="300" />This article is for those people who feel they are smarter than everybody else, that they know better because _______(fill in the blank). Yes, I am here to confess that this was me, I could never understand how if I knew the answer, no one else did, then, one day I was taught this lesson. I am not exactly sure who taught me this, but I will credit it to a Sargent First Class Jones, I think he was the one that told me this, when I was but 19 years old.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;Do you know how to recognize that you are dumber than everybody? It is when you <span style="text-decoration: underline;">fee</span>l like you are smarter than everybody! Always remember, there is something to be learned from anybody, wisdom comes from learning from everyone, and everything, not from a book, it comes from life,  and every day of life is a gift!&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Notice the word <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">feel</span></strong> is underlined, and that the word <strong>think</strong> is not used, this is because we often feel things before we get a chance to think about them. When someone says something like, &#8220;what came first, the chicken or the egg?&#8221;, my first response is to feel, &#8220;what, are you stupid? that is an easy one!, when God created everything, he made a rooster and a chicken, they then made the eggs!&#8221; but, if I think about it, I have to remember, that some people do not believe in God, and if you take God out of the picture, it is hard to get answers to a lot of things!</p>
<p>Anyway, this is not an article just, about God, although it could be. When you here someone say something, and the first thing that happens is that you get that &#8220;what, are you stupid?&#8221;  feeling, think about what you heard, then, break it down as to what could have brought them to say whatever it was they said. I have to say, when it is something that is coming from one of those uppity, over-educated, college professor types, that have never spent a day in the real world, it is usually because of what I said before, about God, since they don&#8217;t teach anything about God in school anymore, how can a person, who has never been outside of school know Him?</p>
<p>Back to the topic, when SFC Jones, or whoever it was back then told me this, it was not because I was opinionated, but because I was a &#8220;smart-ass&#8221; and when called that, I would always respond with, &#8220;it&#8217;s better than being a dumb-ass!&#8221; which is what brought about the lesson in humility,  but, being a young hard-head, it took a while to sink in. Hmm, yep, it took life to teach me.</p>
<p>So, next time you are listening to a speech, from some Law School professor, who has never had a &#8220;real&#8221; job, and you get that &#8220;what, are you stupid?&#8221; feeling, just remember this lesson in humility, God is the one in charge, and no matter how smart you think you are, knowledge, without wisdom, is empty, like a gas can without gas, and, if you try to take God out of the picture, everything is empty!</p>
<p>If you should ever be the one that everybody is mocking, and laughing at, because they say that you have no knowledge, because you didn&#8217;t go to a big fancy school, remember, you can always get knowledge, but wisdom, that is a gift!</p>

What a concept!" width="300" height="240" />Every year, millions of people get together, have barbecues, drink billions of gallons of beer, shoot of tons of fireworks, and use the 4rth of July to celebrate our freedom, but, freedom from what?</p>
<p>I think this is something we need to actually think about and not just take for granted, because this freedom, can be taken away! I know, we all just use the day to party, and to clear or minds from work and lifes little problems, but, what if it were to be taken away? When our founding fathers declared our independance, this was a major event and totally pissed off the King!</p>
<p>When the United States was first getting started, there were no parties, no barbecues, and the only fireworks came from cannons. This is a sacred day, that marks a sacred event, the Declaration of Independence, from a tyrant government and king, and, remembering that, we need to make sure that we keep our freedom, and don&#8217;t let another tyrant government and king take over! Thanks God for our troops that are dying to defend our way of life, and trying to, at the same time, share freedom with others that have never known it. While we may have our petty little problems, and differences about politics, religeon, or whatever, today is the day that freedom was born, let us never let our freedom be taken away, and celebrate the day, remembering what it is all about, and just how fragile it is.</p>

<p>You may have read what I predicted in the past, and I hate to do it, but, I TOLD YA SO! Way before our glorious leader was elected to dictator in chief, I basically described him as a  Hugo Chavez wanna be, then, Herr Obama took over the car companies, the banks, health care, and so on, hopefully people are waking up, finally! Now that he has BP on the ropes, what will happen next? With the deep water drilling on hold, will he finally get a strangle-hold on our economy with the Cap &amp; Trade bill?</p>
<p>If you will keep on watching what gets shoved down our throats, before the next election removes his power, it is not the actual bills that get passed that are the problem, it is what is hidden within them, things that no-one knows about, until it is too late. It is a bit like getting spy-ware on your computer, that freebie program sounds so good, you install it, then boom, all of your credit card and banking info gets stolen, only with Obama and his progressive hoods, it is more than just our personal info, it is our country that is going to be stolen!</p>
<p>I just hope that the Democrats have a few members with a spine, to join in with the Republicans with a spine, to tell Obama and his gang to kiss it and not pass any more of this crap! I have lived in a socialist country, and if they don&#8217;t stop these radicals in Washington, our whole way of life could go down the tubes in one big flush!</p>

If I hear him blame President Bush one more time my head is going to explode!</p>
<p>The government is not the answer it is the problem, only President Reagan said it, and it is the truth, and the people are finally standing up and putting their votes where their mouths are! Look at what Massachusetts did, talk about a slap in the face! I bet ole Teddy is rolling in his grave! He and the rest of the progressive liberals just knew this was the way to government control, but even the people of the most liberal state in the union have said that is enough!</p>
<p>I expect to hear Obama talk about how wonderful he is, and how much the American people suck, and how he will fix everything no matter how bad Bush screwed it up! Of course he is going to seem to move more to the center, but it will all be lies, just as usual. This year is going to be an upsetting time for those socialist bastards that want to take us over and ruin our way of life, because now that our eyes have been opened, we shall vote them out, each and every one of them! Regardless of what lies Obama spews tonight, We The People, will overcome!</p>
<p>Pay close attention to what the &#8220;Chosen One&#8221; says,  it will be nothing but a regurgitation of the same crap the progressives always spew! His spending freeze is a joke, he increased the spending, and now wants to lock it in so it cannot be cut! Obama talks out of both sides of his neck, the progressives will stand up and cheer, but the rest of us should see through the lies, it is nothing but a bunch of crap! Just another way to try to take over the country and turn us into something we are not and do not want to be! Who do you want to be in control, We the People, or, the Government?</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-1084" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" title="hasan_nidal" src="http://opinionhead.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hasan_nidal-300x225.jpg" alt="hasan nidal 300x225 A sign of the times, Ft Hood should be a wake up call!" width="300" height="225" />Every day, it seems, there is something new, something happens that just makes me wanna barf! If it&#8217;s not Nancy Pelosi, or our &#8220;President&#8221; doing something to destroy our country, it is the lack of doing something that will do the same. With all of the info they have on that terrorist at Ft Hood, and that is exactly what he is, why won&#8217;t anyone call it that?</p>
<p>Why is it that the progressives are so obsessed with passing the health care bill? Why is it that these people will not listen to the people that are supposed to be in charge? We The People, are the ones that should decide, why not hve a vote, of and by the people to make a big decision like that, maybe state by state, there are 50 states, so, if it comes out 25 states for aand 25 against, then its over! If it comes out 26 for and 24 against, its over and that means it passes, or, just let it be a national vote, by the people. I say get rid of all of the idiots in Washington, vote them out, rid our country of this &#8220;progressive&#8221; disease!</p>
<p>Back to the terrorist at Ft Hood, why is the military so politically correct, I say it is simple, if a gay guy wants in, let him in, but also let it be at his own risk, when I was in, we weren&#8217;t very nice to them, and guess what, they didn&#8217;t want in, because they knew they would get picked on, problem solved. Just like with the gay guys, if a muslim wants in, let them, but don&#8217;t be surprised when the rest of the people beat them up and make them want out, simple, just don&#8217;t make everything a hate crime, that is rediculous! Boys will be boys, now, you get in trouble for it! It is a natural thing, birds of a feather flock together, if a pidgeon tries to get with a buzzard, the pidgeon will get eaten, that is life!</p>
<p>I am so sick of all of this PC crap, speak your mind, and remove the penelty for doing so, it is my mouth, if I want to say something, it is my business and those that I am speaking to, no body else. Just like this site, if you don&#8217;t like what I write, post a comment and say so! Vent, let it out! That is what is missing in America now! We used to go to the bar, get drunk, get in a fight, and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">if</span> the cops een were called, they just broke up the fight and sent everybody home. Now, if you even had one beer, and an idiot pisses you off, and you tell him he is an idiot, you end up in jail! Yet, they let terrorists in the military, yep, that is a sign of the times! We must take our country back, Vote the Assholes out! Hopefully, if they can manage to stop this health care crap, it will never happen again!</p>
<p>Americans are finally waking up, and unless we all get shut down with some new rule where they take over the internet, and get rid of conservative talk radio and tv, then maybe the next president will be worthy of his office! I&#8217;m sorry, I used to be somewhat of a moderate, now, I am a Conservative all the way! Yeah, I think pot should be legal for medical purposes, but other than that, we need to fix the border problems, we need to clean out the &#8220;muslim extremists&#8221;, pack them up, send them where ever, I don&#8217;t care. In fact, any of the groups that want to destroy America should be run out of the country, like the progressives, send them to Europe, let them see what its like, I lived there and it sucks! Stand up America, vote out the bad guys, vote in the good guys, lets clean up this mess that snuck up on us while we were busy working within the system that we didn&#8217;t notice was changing! It is time to realize that the sign of the times can be changed, VOTE in 2010!</p>

<p>I have to admit, I feel lucky living where I do in Texas, I feel sorry for anyone who doesn&#8217;t live in Texas! From what I have read, and this video, I feel ok about my congressman, Michael McCaul, I hope this doesn&#8217;t ever change. I have not heard anything about the Republican bill, but I would be willing to bet it is better than the mess from the Democrats, thats not saying much, my cat could come up with something better than Pelosi and her bunch, I just can&#8217;t figure out who would ever vote for someone like that crew! Anyway, check out the video, its nothing earth shattering, but he is at least on tape as opposing Pelosi!</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-1078" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" title="sean hannity" src="http://opinionhead.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sean_hannity_1-300x300.jpg" alt="sean hannity" width="300" height="300" />Just a day or two ago, I saw on Hannity, (Fox News), he had a panel of Democrats from New Jersey, the show was very interesting, and as usual, allowed the views from the &#8220;left&#8221; to be shared. I have to admit, I spend almost all of my day, and night, watching the news, and a limited few other programs, and reading books, but my world, my life, is basically here, on the Internet, so, I am able to keep up with what is actually going on in the world, and do not base my opinions on second or third hand information. This said, I am not judging anyone, I am just letting you know where I am coming from.</p>
<p>During this show, Hannity asked one guy if he liked paying taxes, and broke it down as to the facts about his state and local taxes making it that he paid more to live in a state that is in debt and has high unemployment. This guy, said he has to pay more in taxes to pay for states that don&#8217;t have state tax! Obviously, this poor uninformed man did not have a clue! State taxes go to that state, it is the federal taxes that go into the government fund and are supposed to be used to take care of the things that the Federal government is supposed to take care of, like our military, but, not the things the state is supposed to take care of like roads in that state.</p>
<p>You could summarize the definition of the word, &#8220;ignorance&#8221;, as, &#8220;not knowing&#8221;, thus, this man was ignorant to the facts. The type of government you have, the wasteful spending, the entitlements, the unions, and so on are what determine how much money a state needs and where they get this money. I live in the great state of Texas, we have no local or state taxes, and also have a balanced budget, unemployement is still lower than most states, and, the low taxes is at least part of the reason! Texas is a big place, has tons of roads, and no, they are not all perfect, I doubt any state is, but, we are doing pretty good. So, why do these &#8220;liberal&#8221; states have so many taxes? Ignorance! Yes, the people there, obviously, &#8220;don&#8217;t know&#8221;, that they too can have lower taxes, if, the adopt more conservative ways and move away from the fanatical fantasy of the &#8220;nanny state&#8221; that takes care of everything!</p>
<p>I met a guy from &#8220;up north&#8221; who was looking for a job, and couldn&#8217;t understand why here in Texas he got laughed at when looking for a job. The guy went on to explain that he just wanted to get paid about what he did &#8220;back home&#8221;, which was about $25 an hour, for a &#8220;helper&#8221; position. I couldn&#8217;t help but laugh when he said that he had been told, &#8220;we could hire three guys for that amount&#8221;, because I knew it was true. What this guy was so ignorant of, were the facts, that $25 an hour, put him in a higher tax bracket,  with the added local and state taxes, and the &#8220;Union Dues&#8221; he brought home less than the guy that got $8 an hour here! This means that three people have a job, spend money and keep the economy going. The cost of living is less here too because the business you buy your food or whatever from doesn&#8217;t have to pay those extra taxes to the city, state or union! You do the math, are you ignorant?</p>

<p><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-1075" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" title="GrilledSteak" src="http://opinionhead.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/GrilledSteak-300x226.jpg" alt="GrilledSteak 300x226 The smell of burning flesh!" width="300" height="226" />Imagine the day that your family tradition, your holiday celebration, or maybe just your dinner, is no longer allowed! I can see it coming, Obama and his bunch, not to mention the other global warming freaks, and PETA, all want you to give up meat!</p>
<p>I was at a buddy&#8217;s house tonight, we grilled up a couple country style ribs, yep, cheap and yummy! That is when it hit me, with all of the changes the &#8220;greenheads&#8221; want to push on us to control global warming. I am just absolutely amazed that our colleges, and the leaders of the future are being pumped full of this bull.</p>
<p>Do you remember having family cookouts at birthday parties and such? Yep, if they get their way, we&#8217;ll all be eating raw carrots at the family barbecue! Hey, burning charcoal gives off CO2, heck, just letting the cows and pigs and such that we eat causes more CO2 to be produced! Just wait, the meat you buy today for $3.99 lb will get a tax of some sort, but, there could be some sort of government subsidized soilent green and tofu meat substitute for half price! Who knows just how far these crazy peogressives will go? It seems to me, that after they get rid of the animals they will start on people, yep, when we breath we give off CO2, dang, humans cause globel warming too!</p>
<p>When will this idiocy end? Is there anyone out there to stand up and say, YOU PEOPLE ARE CRAZY! GLOBAL WARMING IS NOT CAUSED BY MAN! After all, what ever happened to the glaciers? Man wasn&#8217;t even here when they started melting. God created this planet, gave us animals to eat, and brains to figure out how to make a fire and cook it!</p>
<p>Man is but an insignificant speck on the face of this planet, why do some think they have to be the ones to save something? Come on people, this is not an action movie where some hot chic kills off a bunch of evil monsters with a machine gun!</p>
<p>Leave my grill and my steak alone! I don&#8217;t care if tofu is better for me, it tastes like shit and you can&#8217;t grill it! I will never be a vegan, heck, that word is even creepy!</p>
