Month: September 2012

  • A nation ignorant and free, that never was and never shall be.  Thomas Jefferson George Rebane Spontaneous truth can damage your political health.  Gov Romney’s remarks about who gets government bennies and who is likely to vote for him are now echoing around the world.  His core message may be lost if he attempts to…

  • From a 16sep12 email – “…inspired by the performance of the execrable Susan Rice today; just once, I’d like to see an administration official on TV who doesn’t make me wonder how the f*** they got that job.” George Rebane The crap has been hitting the fan in such volume the last couple of days…

  • George Rebane Last Friday I attended a part of what has now become institutionalized as a biennial ceremony that passes for efforts to develop business in Nevada County.  I think I have attended about five of these during the years we’ve lived here.  This one featured the elected city councils and the county’s Board of…

  • First they came for the veterans, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a veteran; then they came for Tea Party members, and I didn’t speak out because I didn’t belong to the Tea Party; then they came for …; and then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak…

  • George Rebane Well, it appears that Glenn Beck is back, and in spades.  Where before he had just an hour on Fox News, he has virtually taken over Dish TV’s channel 212 programming.  His format is basically the same with some news programming added on.  I still don’t understand how many of his hour long…

  • George Rebane This arrived in an email from a friend and correspondent.  Thought it might be worth rolling an eyeball over.  Thoughts?

  • George Rebane 9/11 was a horrific day in American history, when we were attacked by Islamic religious zealots who willingly sacrificed themselves in the service of their jihad against western civilization and its “Great Satan”, the United States. A similar surprise attack occurred on 7 December 1941 when Imperial Japan decided to disable America so…

  • George Rebane For the last year plus we’ve heard from Team Obama about how his policies have improved the economy by “creating” 4+ million new jobs since 2009.  It is on the other side of astounding how his supporters lap this up as being some kind of improvement rather than the actual disaster that it…
