  • National dumbth on parade, again (updated 1jul18)

    George Rebane Today the nation will witness ‘hundreds of thousands’ of Americans demonstrating against what is represented as “Trump’s immigration policy”.  The demonstrations are sponsored by the usual leftwing anti-American and socialist organizations, and will focus on the ‘separation of children’ aspect of US Code (including our extant immigration law) that requires the separation of…

  • Sandbox – 29jun18

    [OK boys and girls, it's time for SCOTUS roulette.  Make known your odds that one of your favorite candidates will get the presidential nod.  gjr]

  • No Abyss for Progressives

    George Rebane ‘Progressive movement jumping into abyss’ by Manny Montes appeared in the 23jun18 Union, opening with the hopeful salvo – An extraordinary thing is happening right before our eyes.  The implosion of the progressive movement, and its complicit ministry of propaganda, our news media, are jumping head first into the abyss, oblivious to the…

  • Tom Coleman, RIP

    George Rebane My dear friend and one of Nevada County’s iconoclastic gentlemen and longtime community leaders Tom Coleman died last night in Reno of heart failure.  He was playing poker when he collapsed and was taken to the hospital where doctors did all they could, but were not able to save him.  Tom was the…

  • Ruminations – 26jun18 (updated 28jun18)

    Maxine Waters (D-CA) is a crook and certifiable idiot, and the best thing that has happened to Republicans in a long time – she’s a gift that keeps giving.  Her latest call for alt-Left hoodlums to physically confront, in public or at their residences, people who either work in the administration or are on record…

  • Sandbox – 25jun18

    [Here's the next batch of fresh sand.  I find it interesting how the intersection of what interests me and RR's commenters goes up and down.  It appears that the interests of our most voluble readers pretty much track the news cycle, often leaving unattended more fundamental and systemic events/trends that impact our lives and country. …

  • The Diaspora of Dumbth in America

    A nation ignorant and free, that never was and never shall be.  Thomas Jefferson George Rebane Nothing in recent memory highlights the dumbing of the American mind like today’s hysteria about separating kids from adults (parents or coyotes) who criminally enter the United States.  Led by the Left, our news media, both lamestream and conservative,…

  • The Old-age Dependency Train Wreck

    George Rebane The baby boomer retirement tsunami is in full swing, and the number of working age Americans whose efforts will support the rapidly growing population of retireds is shrinking at an alarming rate.  Some significant verbiage expanding on the problem is available in ‘A Generation of Americans Is Entering Old Age the Least Prepared…

  • Ruminations – 22jun18 (updated 24jun18)

    George Rebane Dr Charles Krauthammer (1950-2018).  This man was an intellectual staple in our house for at least twenty years, and his most recent stint on Fox News brought him to our dinner table on an almost daily basis.  His towering intellect, expansive knowledge base, exquisite reasoning, and gentle, often self-effacing humor made him a…

  • The Existential Abrogation of Sovereignty

    George Rebane Across this land we are debating the wrong thing.  There is no contention about separating kids from parents.  No one want to do that gratuitously.  But as a society, we do it when we must.  And we do it daily with American kids by the thousands when their parents are jailed or otherwise…
