  • George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 12 October 2016.] The bottom line is that blacks and other minorities have not made much progress for their unstinting and unexamined loyalty to Democratic politicians and policies.  And as recently discovered Clinton emails reveal, there is an ongoing effort to induce…

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 28 September 2016.] ‘The blue of the grass’ is the color green in an African language.  That’s a lot of letters compared to the five letters in the word ‘green’ to get across the same message.  But it’s also getting harder…

  • We must never forget that 9/11 was NOT a natural disaster. [update] This morning I am sickened and saddened at our national observances of the 9/11 Islamic terror attacks and their reports in the lamestream media.  Examining the public remarks of leaders like President Obama and reports by Associated Press et al, they come across…

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 31 August 2016.] For quite some time now Americans have heard the siren song of Nordic socialism performed consistently by our country’s Left from which more and more are actually outing themselves as socialists.  In this election season we have heard…

  • George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 17 August 2016.] Student debt and college costs are out of control.  Under the passionate paeans of progressives over the last decades, we have been taught that we’re equal enough so that everyone will benefit from a college education and therefore everyone…

  • George Rebane Columnist and RR reader George Boardman wrote an excellent and timely critique of California’s STEM education available today in our secondary schools.  Not only did he present relevant stats on the status of courses offered across the state, he also gave a chilling summary of the new revisionist history and social studies subjects that…

  • George Rebane Progressivism's Litmus Test is their introduction of public policies that eliminate dependence of social order on culture, and their replacement with prescriptions based solely on the state's threat of gratuitous and arbitrary application of overwhelming force. National Lie #53(or whatever) – Illegal aliens are a net contribution to our GDP.  Really?? … according to a new report from…

  • George Rebane This will be America’s 240th birthday celebration observed by divers cohorts of “real live nephews of our Uncle Sam” not all of whom wish him a long life.  Our divisions today are at least as great as those which gave rise to the South’s War for Independence – aka the Civil War.  Americans…

  • George Rebane The ripples from Brexit will travel far and wide, and in their turn give rise to more of what happened in the UK.  Brexit and its aftermath will once again confirm what we have here argued for years – people want to live where their culture is dominant and celebrate the self-determination to…

  • George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 22 June 2016 and posted early to get the word out.] Dear listeners, today let’s take a break from politics and terror and capitalist greed, and talk about happier things.  This year our very own Music in the Mountains is celebrating its…
