IQ's, Drama and Speech

IQ's and Drama, Speech etc.

I have been absolutely tickled at the advertisement that flashes up on the internet giving Hollywood and other esteemed individual's IQ levels. Jennifer A has a 118. And there for a while so did most other stars share this 118 ranking with her. I was beginning to wonder if that was why everyone seems to want everyone to be the same in this new world they are trying to create. Then our leadership was listed with a 128 rank. I began to wonder what this would mean to someone. After all Forest Gump's was in the 70's. So who was or is the more intelligent?????

What does this intelligence test really contain that it measures someone. Well they use it in schools to put you in higher classes so that their ranking goes up and they can say, we have some smart students, so therefore we are a good school.
But it is in school that you start recieving brain training to achieve such scores. It has nothing to do with book learning. It is presets of small puzzles that you are to use brain judgement to achieve an answer to. None of these puzzles contain anything that will be a judgement for life.
How does a square of nine squares with portions blacked out and finding a sequence make you intelligent?
Intelligence: The faculty of understanding.
Well it is the understanding of the test that is really the jist of the score.
Does it measure emotion, common sense, morality, etc.?

Sorry, even though he is fictional, I am going with Forest.

Drama and Speech is the one that is the most shameful. In a drama class you learn to activate your words and motions or emotions to entertain. And in so learning, you manipulate a group of persons in your presence or watching you on screen.
Speech is usually debates of one side against the other. As in Drama you learn the inflection and emotion of your words. Again manipulation of the audience. And to win your pro or con side of the debate.
Our leadership indeed debated his side of the coin. And he did captivate most of the peoples or at least the electorial collage.
But they is not the great orator that they has been dubbed.
If you will look and listen without the rose colored glasses on you would hear the inconsistancy, halting, and down right slowness of his speeches. They have no realness to them. They are deadpan and rather boring. They have no sparkle. They have no inspiration.
I want to be told that I have the best country in the whole world. That I am to be proud of my country. And that they will continue to make it the best country in the whole wide world and be hanged what others think of us. There is only passiveness in their garbled, benign, kiss up, hippy talk.
And I want them to say they will take care of OUR COUNTRY and quit passing the buck or blaming the other leadership for the problems. Own up. You have the ball now. Play or get off the court. Get some intestinal fortitude.
