  • When free speech goes …

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 2 September 2011.  Podcast here.] Please accept my apologies for the extended respite you have enjoyed over the last weeks from hearing the outrageous thoughts of KVMR’s lonesome conservetarian commentator.  August got unexpectedly busy with all kinds of matters involving travel and…

  • Islamophobia – a rational response? (updated 1sep2011)

                            Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny.  R. Clay Reynolds George Rebane As these pages long attest, for me the answer to the title question is a resounding YES.  And our western governments aid and abet that as being the reasonable response.  The progressive tsunami of proscribing anyone who evinces fear of Islam ranges from Mayor…

  • Epiphany at Trinity

    George Rebane It was our first solo trip with our ‘new’ trailer.  Jo Ann and I got back from Trinity Lake yesterday afternoon after spending a few days under the trees at Pinewood Cove RV Park.  We are lifelong dirt campers, so talking us into upgrading to a starter trailer wasn’t all that difficult.  It…

  • An Evening with the Tea Party Patriots

    George Rebane Mr Paul Emery – KVMR news director, musical personage extraordinaire, bringer of arts, and erudite RR discussant – and I have been invited by the Nevada County TPP to engage in a moderated ‘civil discourse’ on issues of current interest as their featured special program for September.  The event will be held on the…

  • Ruminations – 11aug2011

    George Rebane - The Left’s American Dream movement- UK riots have an unmentionable cause- California’s popular vote law Led by Van Jones, our favorite self-declared communist and former Obama staffer, the American Dream Movement “announced the Contract for the American Dream, a new agenda for economic recovery supported by a grassroots movement that progressive leaders say will rival…

  • We Are the Real Terrorists

    George Rebane Truthout.org has published a major article ‘Breivik's Fundamentalist War on Politics, and Ours’ which is a progressive manifesto, and itself a declaration of war on conservatives and their politics.  Author Henry Giroux (one of truthout’s “news analysts”) forges every connection imaginable between Breivik, the Norwegian mass murderer, and anybody to the right of…

  • Perhaps Muslim-Themed Ethics Training Next (Updated)

    George Rebane This from truthout.com, my favorite website for socialist cum communist news and commentary. Air Force Pulls Christian-Themed Ethics Training for Nuclear Missile Officers After Publication of Truthout ReportJason Leopold, Truthout: "The Air Force, in response to a report published by Truthout earlier this week, has pulled a Christian-themed training session that used a…

  • Cultural Rights

    George Rebane [This piece is actually the expansion of ‘Discussing Norway and Breivik’ which invited a reasoned conversation about the recent terror massacre.  In there I included 25 notions related to that atrocity, and to the growing public debate on multi-culturalism and Islam that is ongoing in Europe and starting in America.  Here is my…

  • Discussing Norway and Breivik

    George Rebane “Norway's murders shouldn't be an excuse to shut down debate over multiculturalism and the failure of many Muslims to assimilate to Europe's cultural norms. British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Nicolas Sarkozy have broken taboos by speaking sensibly on the subject. Democracies need to address their anxieties openly, rather than push…

  • Norway Terror (updated)

    George Rebane So now Norway has Anders Behring Breivik, its own equivalent of America’s Timothy McVey.  We read that the 32 year old farmer has killed almost one hundred people, personally murdering eighty some by shooting each of them at close range.  He also posted a YouTube video (now removed) of himself declaring his terror…
