  • Our ERC gets dunned, again

    George Rebane The 9aug17 Union’s lead story was ‘Supes question ERC head’.  Our local business development agency – renamed Economic Resource Council to assuage the progressive palates – has had a sad history of under achievement, not all of which can be laid at its feet.  More than once the county’s sop for inducing economic…

  • Tea Party’s demise greatly exaggerated

    George Rebane Wasn’t it Mark Twain who remarked that “the recent reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated”?  (Click on the image to enlarge.)

  • CALIFORNIA VOTERS ARE BEING DISENFRANCHISED

    [This commentary was submitted by Union columnist and editorial board member Mr Norm Sauer.  It appears concurrently in the newspaper's op-ed pages.  gjr] Norm Sauer Surely, everyone agrees that protecting our citizens’ right to vote to choose their leaders is most important. Votes that are stolen from Americans who vote lawfully are negated as a…

  • Roll on A21 – rollin’, rollin’, rollin’!

    George Rebane We continue on our unintended road to the world described in the UN’s Agenda 21 objectives for ‘voluntary global sustainable development’.  Few people know that A21 is the tacit goal quietly accepted by governments across the world (more here).  On RR, we have been railing against this surreptitiously mandated brave new world for…

  • Ruminations – 11jul17 (updated 13jul17)

    For people whose work is the written word, reporters can be stunningly indifferent to what words actually mean. onthecommons.org George Rebane California is now a one-party state, as recognized by everyone in the land (more here).  The Democrats have sealed their decades-long control with an uncontestable supermajority in the legislature, and dominate all state elective…

  • Ruminations – 29jun17 (updated 3jul17)

    George Rebane Do not confuse allegations with evidence. It appears that most RR commenters are practiced psychologists who not only can ascertain, but overwhelmingly enjoy providing free diagnoses of other commenters’ cognitive and character disorders that give rise to their erroneous assertions and assessments.  And many do this rather than dissect and display the errors…

  • Ruminations – 16jun17 (updated 19jun17)

    George Rebane Clarification of the 1st Amendment kudos to Union publisher Don Rogers for explaining again that the ‘free speech’ amendment applies ONLY to what our government cannot do to limit communications, no matter how wise, dumb, outrageous, … the message may be.  Private parties that control/own media and entertainment outlets are free to limit…

  • Single-Payer Siren Song

    George Rebane If you don’t do numbers, the numbers will inevitably do you. [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 31 May 2017.] With Obamacare crashing and burning everywhere across the land except in the leftwing media, the Republicans are still tangled up with their promised ‘repeal and replace’ legislation. …

  • The pot pot keeps boiling

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 17 May 2017.] We live in confusing times when much of what we hear is manufactured or fake news that overwhelmingly serves to polarize us.  It’s hard to tell whether the late-night comedy hours or the news programs are leading the…

  • Calling all California’s Closeted Communists

    George Rebane The insanity of permitting/inviting people known to believe in the abrogation of the US Constitution and the government upon which it is founded is now beyond doubt.  The Democrats in Sacramento are either terminally stupid or no longer seek to hide the existential truth that they want to do away with America –…
