  • SB419 – Stupid becomes stupider

    George Rebane There is no lower bound to progressive stupidity.  This truth is again confirmed and demonstrated to boot by SB419 signed into law by our Gov Nutjob.  Adding to all the other problems with our progressively punished public education in California, the new law installs ‘the willfully defiant classroom’ into our schools.  It legalizes…

  • Dropout Derby – 13jan20

    George Rebane Well, I am relieved to see the socialist demagogue Booker retire from this race.  The man was a way too good-looking and smooth talking Marxist with the ability to bamboozle a lot of people before November.  He may still be a candidate for Warren’s VP, unless she wants to pick someone less rabidly…

  • It’s Still the Economy, Stupid!

    George Rebane While Messrs Smith, Bastiat, Mises, Hayek, and Freedman explained it all, Mr Henry Hazlitt succinctly summarized the whole thing in his classic, Economics in One Lesson (1946).  This book has become such a fundamental text, that you don’t even have to buy a copy of it any more.  It is now online in…

  • Sandbox – 11jan20

    [Many apologies for letting the last sandbox get a little soggy.  So many issues, so little time.  gjr]

  • Dropout Derby – 10jan20

    George Rebane Marianne Williamson, self-help and spiritual adviser, and part of the Democrat menagerie of candidates, withdrew from the race to POTUS today.  From my perch, her withdrawal was probably for the best, since displacing the former residents of the Pantheon, the secular humanist Democrats have eschewed anything that might have out-evolved their own kind.

  • Ruminations – 10jan20 (updated 13jan20)

    George Rebane The Dems’ Chorus of Cacophony is now shrieking at Trump for taking out Soleimani the terrorist as a prophylactic for imminent acts of terror, exactly the same thing they blamed and still blame Bush2 for NOT taking out Bin Laden in order to prevent 9/11.  We recall it was Bill Clinton who declined…

  • Scattershots – 9jan20

    George Rebane Progressives’ public displays of caring social involvement will abruptly end when they finally destroy the economy that enables such displays. Joining the chorus of all Democrats, Sen Tim Kaine is a POS and a lying scumbag every time he opens his mouth.  Last night on FN he lied about there being members of…

  • Why Black Lives Don’t Matter to Blacks

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 8 January 2020.] Do black lives really matter?  Well that clearly depends on whose talk and whose walk you pay attention to.  The loud talk from our congresscritters and black leaders is that black lives very much matter, and that it’s the…

  • A Larger Context for Trump’s Next Mid-East Move

    George Rebane Thanks to President Trump, we are again at a crossroads which gives us an opportunity to define America’s stand in the Mid-East, and a related strategy for a new crisp and clear global foreign policy, one understood by all to achieve and maintain a power balance that promotes peace and prosperity to a…

  • Ruminations – 5jan20 (updated 6jan20)

    George Rebane On hubris and nemesis in the Deep State – an interview (here) with Victor Davis Hanson sheds some new light on the goings on in the unelected state within a state.  (H/T to correspondent) Consulting Congress required?  The Constitution is very specific on the matters of national security that require the President to…
