  • George Rebane For years RR has documented the sad retreat of our fundamental rights and liberties, the withdrawal of which has not caused many an eyebrow to be raised among the country’s gruberized hosts.  Instead, it has given rise to celebrations of every newly minted political correctness by our neighbors on the Left – for…

  • Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.  John 1:3 George Rebane ‘Tis the season to talk of God.  The debate about the existence of God or Intelligent Designer or Universal Intelligence or … (henceforth ‘God’) continues to grow as we discover more about our universe, or as…
