  • The President’s (Annotated) Weekly Address

    George Rebane [This is President Obama’s 2oct10 weekly radio address with my commentary annotated in blue italics.  All emphases are mine.] Over the past twenty months, we’ve been fighting not just to create more jobs today, but to rebuild our economy on a stronger foundation.  Our future as a nation depends on making sure that the…

  • KVMR Commentary – John Kerry Assesses the Voters

    George Rebane [This piece was recorded as my regular bi-weekly commentary on KVMR-FM 89.5 and broadcast on 1 October 2010.] There is more to be said about John Kerry’s assessment of voters earlier this week.  For openers, it’s rare that Senator Kerry and I agree, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to balance the…

  • As the Elections Nears

    George Rebane We should expect more from the American Redistribution and Re-election Act.  Please note the recent $222K bump; details here.

  • Sines of the Times

    George Rebane Students of history and current affairs must be intrigued as they witness the ebb and flow of civilizations, cultures, and fortunes.  If they are of a conservative nature and hail from the west, they must also be sitting on a growing inventory of fear.  We are seeing a resurgence of socialism and the…

  • CARB Űber Alles

    George Rebane Ms Mary D. Nichols, chair of the California Air Resources Board, came to Nevada City tonight to speak to us about AB32.  To a full city council chamber the lady calmly laid out the regulatory program that still awaits us should Prop23 fail to halt the implementation of the rest of California’s demonstration…

  • California’s Ups and Downs

    George Rebane   We can’t help but be out front, in whatever direction we’re heading.  As California dives for the mud, it is pushing harder than ever on the accelerator by raising taxes, fees, and regulations.   The disinformation on Prop23 to suspend the remainder of AB32 – California’s carbon cap n’ tax on steroids –…

  • ‘Solutions for America’ and More Non-solutions

    George Rebane Contrary to what the leftwing has been telling us since 2008, the conservatives have submitted alternatives to socialism at every turn.  Following the Alinsky almanac to the letter, the administration and its congressional echo chamber have continued to air the same message for over two years now – ‘they are the party of…

  • To Pee or Not To Pee?

    George Rebane That is indeed the question.  A reader from the northwest reminded me of the following little essay which brings it all into focus.  The argument is succinctly made for a new government program that would apply to all people from the homeless to the honorables.  Normally I am not in favor of most…

  • From the Log of the Titanic

    George Rebane News is now coming in that the true national debt may actually have gone above $200T (google ‘$200T national debt’ for a snootfull).  Recall that the boobs in the Beltway are themselves fessing up to something over $16T which completely ignores the “off budget” obligations.  Even though they are off budget, they’re not…
