Month: November 2014

  • Sandbox – 30nov14

    [How come the Left either knows nothing about what the Koch brothers support, or are simply cynical lying sacks of, of, … well, you know?]

  • Socialist Bamboozles Collective

    George Rebane When I read Steve Frisch’s ‘Sustainable jobs, sustainable communities’ piece in this morning’s 28nov14) Union, I almost sprayed my coffee all over the breakfast table.  Pre-rainstorm chores kept me from leaping on the keyboard until now.  RR already drew some commenting from a couple of readers one of whom, Russ Steele, posted an excellent…

  • Thanksgiving – 2014

    George Rebane This November brought a ray of hope for which we can give added thanks that we still live in a most exceptional land.  Happy Thanksgiving to us all.

  • Scattershots – 26nov14

    George Rebane Schumer’s post-election epiphany.  My comment yesterday on Senator Schumer’s belated insights on Obamacare is being echoed today in various national media outlets that have added some revealing detail.  Besides the senator from New York admitting that “the law has been disastrous for Democrats”, he now, yes now, acknowledges what the rest of us…

  • It’s not the lack of paperwork (updated 24nov14)

    George Rebane We’re back in illegal alien season again.  The lamestream has turned up the volume on referring to them as ‘undocumented immigrants’.  This invokes images of old photographs of European refugees in shabby clothes, holding their few suitcases and bundles, waiting patiently and hopefully in line for one last screening by US officials before…

  • Ruminations – 21nov14 (updated 24nov14)

    George Rebane Retired lawyer and Union editorial board member Norm Sauer wrote another letter to the editor yesterday (here) about crime rates and gun ownership that predictably tied some undies of the looney Left in knots.  A correspondent advised me that this caused one of these worthies, a critic and former employee of the newspaper, to even…

  • Bad News Presidency Continues

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast of 19 November 2014.] Last night, after six years of delays, Dirty Harry finally brought the Keystone XL pipeline vote to the floor of the Senate where it failed to pass by one vote.  This vote has been put off for more hokey…

  • Charitable Giving by Conservatives and Liberals

    George Rebane RR has reported on the many studies that show people of conservative bent vastly outspend liberals in contributions to private charities (and that, dollar for dollar, private charities are enormously more effective in helping the poor and disadvantaged than are government programs).  The intuitive reasons for that are easy to grasp, at least…

  • Sandbox – 16nov14

    [Boy oh boy, but do these sandboxes fill up fast.  I constantly wonder where you guys get all those quotes from other blogs and websites.  gjr]

  • Ruminations – 15nov14

    George Rebane Random thoughts on a Saturday morning.  The beautiful fall foliage on our trees is now on the back side of the power curve, but still saying ‘look at me’ as the last leaves drift to the ground.  At our house I make a big breakfast on Saturday morning.  It is always a panful…
