Category: Agenda 21

  • Agenda21 – drones overhead, black boxes in cars, …

    George Rebane Unmanned surveillance aircraft come in a range of sizes that fit in the palm of your hand to big ones the size of airliners.  The 21apr12 WSJ reports that the smaller ones are being snapped up by stateside governmental agencies ranging from federal bureaus to local police.  Their manifold uses should be obvious…

  • More Milestones on our Downward Spiral

    George Rebane This week has seen a lot of dilapidation in our ship of state.  For openers, Peggy Noonan takes an overarching survey of events that reflects on our national character.  From other perspectives we see what it is to be on a careening progressive luge as this administration more fully reveals itself, and what…

  • Every Commons ends in Tragedy

    "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."  Winston Churchill George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular bi-weekly KVMR radio commentary broadcast on 13 April 2012.] Years ago when our kids were in early grade school, mom…

  • Socialism’s trail of tears, long time coming

    George Rebane A reader sent me this little blast from the past, published in the year I first set foot on these shores.  The ode below was composed as it became clear that the nation’s flirtation with communism in the Great Depression had not been fully purged by Truman’s partial efforts to sunset some of…

  • Ruminations – 20mar12

    George Rebane A regular correspondent reminds us that the drumbeat for Agenda21’s one-size government suits everyone is continuing apace.  The formerly prestigious, now leftwing Scientific American, laments that none of its prescriptions from green energy, through gun confiscation, to man-made global warming can be implemented without the much stronger arm of a much bigger brother. …

  • New Executive Order – Autocracy in the wings?

    George Rebane President Obama signed a new EO a couple of days ago that describes what powers the executive branch will assume during a self-declared national emergency.  The 16mar12 EO references and updates previous EOs that have been in force to handle similar extreme situations in the land, but there are some items in this…

  • Ruminations – 16mar2012

    George Rebane We watched a DVRd recent ’60 Minutes’ piece on a fifty year program by Texas ranchers to conserve over 150 African game species on their own range lands.  Through their own efforts they have taken contributions from the nation’s zoos and built up the herds/flocks, in the process saving many species that were…

  • Why we rage and what we can never condone

    George Rebane Here's a detail that has escaped me about the whole can of worms about the millions of illegal aliens in our country and the thousands more arriving every month.  The US Code dating back to 1940 required all aliens in the US to present proper identification giving evidence of their status when required…

  • Nevada County Scattershots – 3 March 2012

    George Rebane Friend Bob Crabb’s 3mar12 Union cartoon above captures well the spirit and goals of Agenda21 (q.v.), and the brave new world we are being herded to pell-mell.  (BTW, Bob now has his own blog which you can visit through the ‘Our Links’ panel on the right.) And while I’m in the mood, in…

  • The Great Divide – 29feb12 update on work in process (updated 4mar12)

    George Rebane This is a weblog entry to update our ‘progress’ toward a fundamental transformation of America.  As has been discussed, we are past the tipping point with two alternative destinations that will redefine the social, economic, and political landscape of the North American landmass.  The first is the United Socialist States of America (USSA)…
