  • George Rebane Saw Bob Crabb’s latest contribution in this morning’s Union – therefrom it is filched and displayed below for all to see. Oh, the slings and arrows that penetrate most deeply come not from the enemy, but alas, the friend.  This piece of contemporary art recalls an ancient ode from another Bob who lived…

  • There is no limit to what you can accomplish if you don’t care who gets the credit. ― Ronald Reagan George Rebane Last Tuesday’s Nevada County Board of Supervisors meeting achieved its larger purpose that was promoted by a lot of mostly conservative attendees belonging to organizations like CABPRO and the local Tea Party.  A…

  • George Rebane The Left and their supporters deny the existence of UN's Agenda21 and their part in promoting its precepts.  That's to be expected of global collectivists to whom local control is anathema.  What is more insiduous is when such precepts under the "sustainable development" banner of the ICLEIs – the regional and local Agenda21…

  • George Rebane That is the title of a piece by Stanislav Mishin which appeared in the 27apr09 issue of Pravda, a few months after Obama’s inauguration.  It was then already clear to many of us in the US and also around the world that our new communist-nurtured president had every intention of fulfilling his promise…

  • First they came for the veterans, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a veteran; then they came for Tea Party members, and I didn’t speak out because I didn’t belong to the Tea Party; then they came for …; and then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak…

  • George Rebane [This is the submitted form of my column to The Union published in their 15sep12 print and online editions.  The new Union website doesn’t appear to have date-specific URLs, and its contents, including my column, have no apparent permalinks.  The column is available in their ‘e-edition’ which is an image of the print…

  • George Rebane 9/11 was a horrific day in American history, when we were attacked by Islamic religious zealots who willingly sacrificed themselves in the service of their jihad against western civilization and its “Great Satan”, the United States. A similar surprise attack occurred on 7 December 1941 when Imperial Japan decided to disable America so…

  • George Rebane For the last year plus we’ve heard from Team Obama about how his policies have improved the economy by “creating” 4+ million new jobs since 2009.  It is on the other side of astounding how his supporters lap this up as being some kind of improvement rather than the actual disaster that it…
