  • George Rebane The topic of anonyimity in web comment streams has risen again in these pages.  The most recent instigation was the advent of a commenter who signed himself  “XXXXX” that set off a stream of responses from other commenters some of whom also use a ‘nom de web’.  Under ‘Hillary’s First Loyalty’ I questioned XXXXX’s…

  • [This column by my friend and Union editorial board member Norm Sauer (pictured) was published as a lead op-ed column in today’s (16jul16) Union.  Norm sent me a copy for early posting here, but I chose to hold back and not steal his thunder from the newspaper.  gjr] Norm Sauer What a week it was for Hillary Clinton.…

  • [OK, the last one filled super-fast.  Time to talk about the truck attack in Nice, and what that portends for future easy-to-execute lone wolf terror on our shores.  And why is the lamestream again trying to represent this Muslim as a confused man with family troubles, instead of someone who was organized enough to assemble quite…

National Lie #53(or whatever) – Illegal aliens are a net contribution to our GDP.  Really?? … according to a new report from…

  • [Much to say about the Dallas massacre of police presumably prompted by the most recent police shootings of two black men.  gjr]

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 6 July 2016.] Today millions of Americans believe that yesterday morning we saw justice publicly executed at the hand of a corrupt federal government.  And the executioner was none other than FBI Director James Comey, who was not supposed to wield…

  • George Rebane This morning we heard FBI Director James Comey announce that the bureau’s exhaustive investigation found no reason to bring criminal charges against Hillary Clinton regarding the goings on with her private email servers when she was Secretary of State. His conclusion was based on two factors – Lack of intent to harm the…

  • George Rebane Ms Patricia Smith, MMJ champion and president of the local Americans for Safe Access, invited Mr Eddie Garcia (NC SoJ steering committee) and me to have lunch and discuss the progress toward a draft of the new interim MMJ ordinance that the NC BoS will adopt before Labor Day.  The county and stake…
