  • Scattershots – 8jul17 (updated 9jul17)

    George Rebane Have you heard anything about disgruntled and terminally progressive EPA employees having a tough time finding new jobs as they seek to leave an agency that is finally coming under some adult supervision?  Well, neither have many of us.  But it turns out that many of the bleeding hearts in the agency who…

  • Healthcare from Hell (updated 8jul17)

    George Rebane Union columnist Terry McLaughlin writes an excellent expose of nationalized healthcare in the newspaper’s 6jul17 edition – ‘Government run healthcare wouldn’t be cheaper; more efficient’.  In there she includes a detailed report from New Zealand, one of the countries often cited by socialists of how a healthcare system should work.  As you might…

  • Happy INDEPENDENCE (sic) Day!

    George Rebane President Trump appears to have entered a new phase of his administration with the escalation of this Tweet Travails and the second faltering of ‘Replace and Repeal’ while tax reform waits (withers?) in the wings and the national budget is not even on the back burner (‘Continuing Resolutions’ don’t count).  When MOCs return…

  • Assault on Cemental Hill

    George Rebane Our irrepressible yet lovable port-side cartoonist RL ‘Bob’ Crabb offers his latest in the 1jul17 Union which I have filched and included here for your edification and entertainment. Sadly, as time has passed, Bob has seen less and less to like about what he finds in these pages.  But what the above graphic…
