Month: February 2010

  • George Rebane The feds are telling us that they need to collect all that data about us in the 2010 census so that government can serve us better.  Nine out of ten of us will get the ‘short form’ that already goes beyond what the Constitution prescribes for a census.  One out of ten will…

  • George Rebane Let me say from the gitgo that I support Barry Pruett for Clerk-Recorder and have contributed to his campaign.  On his blog my friend Aaron Klein (another person the Rebanes support) has written an eloquent endorsement of Barry with which I totally agree.  Yesterday our Union published a lengthy front page article that…

  • George Rebane Grandson Lucas continues to clear the boards up in Washington state, and his team is headed for the state finals in Spokane. Picture from the Redmond-Reporter.com.  I knew all you guys were waiting for this report 😉  

  • George Rebane • Horses on Border Patrol• Climategate ad nauseum• The Consummate Harry Reid The Border Patrol has discovered the age-old utility of horses on broad open country.  The agent on a horse has all kinds of advantages over the on-foot illegal alien and/or drug runner.  The agents are able to use the natural senses and sensibility of…

  • George Rebane The well-respected Pew Research Center published a report on its recent survey of the political attitudes of the so-called millennial voters (young people who came of age in the first decade of this millennium).  Pew noted that “their attachment to the Democratic Party weakened markedly over the course of 2009”, although a majority…

  • George Rebane   Only lightly camouflaged conspiracy theories come to mind when I hear the latest reports of the government abetting efforts to again minimize the role of English as the prime unifying force in this wonderful polyglot that has always been America.  The disunity and political strife in multilingual countries has been the norm…

  • George Rebane I have commiserated about corporations falling for the climate change hoax because they see themselves in favored positions with regard to cap n’ tax (Waxman – Markey) subsidies and suppressed competitors.  Recall Rebane’s Rule of Corporations – the good part is that they will game the system, the bad part is that they…
