  • Chuckie Schumer, U.S. Senator (really!)

    George Rebane RR has reported the dismal results of surveys that show many of our political leaders are absolute dunces when it comes to knowledge about our form of government, geo-political events, numeracy, common sense, … .  On the national fiscal crisis CNN reports – “We have three branches of government.  We have the House.  We…

  • Democrats Working on Jobs – Again

    George Rebane Did you catch the latest out of the District of Comedy?  As promised, and for what they were elected, the Congressional Repubs are doing their best to pull back Obamacare and the rest of the $1.5T economic effluent that has flowed out of Washington over the last two plus years.  Every day we…

  • SOTUS 2011 (updated 29jan2011)

    George Rebane The speech was delivered in a workmanlike manner by President Barack Obama, one of the best public speakers in the land.  But its content was so flawed that I thought it best to not say anything at all about it, primarily because it was immediately dissected so assiduously by so many conservative pundits…

  • Bet You Didn’t Know About this Tax

    George Rebane This year I promised to write more stuff on technology and finances.  In the winter I also start writing the year’s TechTest2011 which will be taken in the spring by a select cadre of Nevada County’s high school seniors and juniors.  Reviewing some of the problems from previous TTs, I came upon one…

  • Seating Assignments

    George Rebane I don’t know about you, but I want Congress to sit as they have been for decades during the President’s State of the Union speech.  This hooey about civility and bi-partisanship is more patronizing of the voting public by the ruling elites.  Most of us know its faulty pedigree from the aftermath of…

  • Dan Logue at CABPRO Dinner

    George Rebane Last night at Penny’s Diner CABPRO put on a fine feed to a full house that featured our Assemblyman Dan Logue as guest speaker.  The event was hosted by CABPRO’s executive director Martin Light.  In attendance were all the usual conservative suspects from our community and parts nearby (a few of them pictured…

  • States Busy Strapping on Bankruptcy Kneepads

    George Rebane Regular RR readers are not a bit surprised by the big news heading into this weekend – the states are getting ready to march to Washington, on their knees, and beg for new legislation allowing them to renege on their debts, especially on the $2.5 trillion (unfunded liabilities) they owe to their own…

  • Healthcare, One More Time

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my bi-weekly KVMR-FM commentary broadcast on 21 January 2011.] The dodgy passage of Obamacare last year, its rejection by most Americans, and the results of last November’s election have ushered in a new season of healthcare debate.  It is doubtful that repealing that abominable legislation will come to…

  • Ruminations – 21jan2011

    George Rebane – New Muslim threat, offensive Jihad – American GIs killed by their trainees and combat ‘comrades’– Dog training – Pelline on Rebane and KVMR– Denial of pension problems – New Mexico pulls out of capntax– Prevalent illegal alien attitude? Offensive Jihad.  The latest development on the terrorist front, unreported in the lamestream media,…

  • Our Elected Dummies

    George Rebane RR and its conservative commenters are constantly taken to task by the left for their disdain of the intellectual level of our elected officials.  By their work product they are known.  But that is not enough for our progressive brethren who dismiss that criticism of government to be an attribute of (far?) right…
