  • ‘Tis the politically directed shopping season

    George Rebane A correspondent sent me the following information about which retailers support which political parties in the country.  You wouldn’t want to shop in the wrong place now would you?  Brought to you in the spirit of the season as a dispute-free and modest public service. With the holidays upon us, we might wish…

  • Ruminations – 11dec2011

    George Rebane People are asking whether Obama has become irrelevant.  My answer is an emphatic NO.  As long as he is in office, President Obama will remain a loose cannon impacting the fate of our country with his jaundiced ideology of an America destined to disappear into the woodwork of a new global order.  I…

    George Rebane In today’s Union, James Hinman calls for a new high school in Nevada County that focuses on producing graduates who are able to go directly into the workforce and begin earning a living at a job that can develop into a career path (here)  These pages have long argued that today’s colleges focus…

  • Ruminations – 21nov2011

    George Rebane Two prominent Democrat pollsters argue for ‘The Hillary Moment’ in 2012.  They make a compelling case for Reid and Pelosi to pick up the phone and call Obama to ask him to take the Truman/Johnson moral high ground and bow out.  Their well-stated arguments revolve around The Community Organizer’s horrible record in office,…

  • Hiroshima+66, Detroit+welfare

    George Rebane In 1945 Hiroshima was devastated by the first atom bomb used in anger.  The bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki saved a net of at least two million lives and untold millions of casualties, plus a Japan devastated more horribly than it already was in August 1945 when the bombs were dropped.  The outcry…

  • Threshold of New Progressive Era Hailed

    George Rebane Jeffery Sachs of Columbia University is a very prominent and celebrated far Left academician who writes extensively in the national media.  For example, he is the spearhead of that august Scientific American having been politicized over the last decade or so (it is now also a much thinner magazine with articles that have…

  • Van Jones – he’s baaaack! (updated)

    George Rebane We know that this formerly proud communist has been busy since he had to be jettisoned by Team Obama, but all that has been relatively sub-rosa.  Now the newly-minted Marxist in mufti is on his ascent to the top of the pile located somewhere beyond the American Left.  The man again deserves a…
