  • ‘Democracy Dies in California’

    “To impose a new burden on fast-food restaurants, the state plans to ignore the constitution’s right of voters to review laws.” George Rebane California suffers a continuous stream of social, economic, and political disasters.  All of these are formulated, brought to bear, and implemented by the state’s virulently anti-American Democratic Party.  Most of the public…

  • The Kennan/Byrnes Foreign Policy Conundrum

    George Rebane I recently finished reading a most fascinating and informative account of the international geo-strategic process of decision making by the Allies during WW2.  The work titled Speaking Frankly (1947) by James F. Byrnes (here), diplomat, jurist, and politician extraordinaire, was a command performance and hit the top of the charts when it was…

  • Election 2022 – America’s Voters Tested (updated 15nov22)

    George Rebane So, election day 2022 is finally here.  It arrived with a months-long preamble of leftwing lies about the current state of the country and the portents for its future were we to deviate from the sorry road that got us to where we are under this administration.  The question now is how many…

  • America’s Ingrained Indelible Ignorance

    George Rebane Union columnist Terry McLaughlin penned an important column in today’s (3nov22) newspaper titled ‘Perceptions and reality’.  In there she cited studies from academe and data from government agencies about the large deficits in what our adult population, which includes the electorate, knows about our country and what beliefs they actually use on which…

  • Scattershots – 12oct22 (updated 16oct22)

    California is a warning to the nation.  Kevin Kiley George Rebane Unhinged leftwinger op-ed in the 12oct22 Union. (here) In this community the ideological sentiments (aka blinders) of Ms Cheryl Cook are well known.  In today’s column she corroborates her reputation as a woke progressive who strives for a world repulsive to anyone to the…

  • Thus spake VDH

    Civilization is fragile. It hinges on ensuring the stuff of life.  To be able to eat, to move about, to have shelter, to be free from state or tribal coercion, to be secure abroad and safe at home—only that allows cultures to be freed from the daily drudgery of mere survival.  Civilization alone permits humans…

  • Dark Days Diary – 30sep22 (updated 1oct22)

    George Rebane Sen Joe Manchin has turned out to be another double dummy political hack and a major disappointment, succumbing to the predictable and obvious wiles of Sen Schumer.  Ol’ Joe had us all fooled during the past year as being the staunch stalwart, along with Sen Sinema (D-AZ), against the economic ruin the Dems…

  • Underserved, really?

    George Rebane Underserved groups used to describe populations without adequate access to goods and services, e.g. education, medical care. This included rural, elderly, low-literacy, blue collar, and poor populations. Minorities (i.e. Blacks, Hispanics, homosexuals, transphiles, illegal aliens, …) per se were not included, but often belonged to one or more or the included categories.  The current…

  • Scattershots – 21sep2022 (updated 23sep22)

    George Rebane Do any of them know what they’re talking about?  Here’s a comment from a liberal sackhead – I sense much desperation on this site from the host's diatribes against women, blacks, and the march toward MAGA extremism. … The hosts(sic) denigrates educated women, and assumed anyone not a rank MAGA is an idiot…

  • ‘The Real Threat to Our Republic’ (updated 12sep22)

    George Rebane Over the years I’ve touched on the impact that the ‘educated’ liberal woman have had on our society and our republic.  My own experience with such people has been uniformly informative and corroborated by many readings on the subject.  I’ve been meaning to write a definitive piece on these females who pervade our…
