  • The Evil Party – more lives lost to the Left (updated 21jun21)

    The fact that Joe Biden is even considering opening our southern border to a group of unvetted illegal aliens in a massive caravan – in the middle of a pandemic, while millions of Americans are unemployed – tells you everything you need to know about Democrats’ priorities.  - Anonymous George Rebane In voices hushed by…

  • Toward Reunification, One More Time (updated 13jun21)

    George Rebane [This commentary appeared here in the 5jun21 op-ed pages of The Union.  The response in the newspaper’s online edition comment stream was as predicted (by publisher Don Rogers among others), and I expand on this in the addendum below.] In my last two Other Voices columns – ‘Farewell Unity’ (2apr21), ‘Where exactly are…

  • Scattershots – 3jun21 (updated 8jun21)

    Why promote a minimalist government – “It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.”  Thomas Sowell George Rebane Anyone notice how student debt is propagandized as an act of nature that…

  • The Evil Party Marches On (updated 4jun21)

    George Rebane You can fool some people most of the time; you can fool most people some of the time; and today you can also fool most of the people most of the time. As ensconced in communist Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, the new Democratic Party has thoroughly embraced its dictum ‘Accuse others of…

  • Scattershots – 24may21 (updated 31may21)

    If "being shot is a risk police officers take with the job", then isn't being shot a risk criminals take when breaking the law? George Rebane Tomorrow our Left will celebrate the life of George Floyd on the anniversary of his death last year in the custody of the Minneapolis police.  The ‘celebration’ itself is…

  • Systemic Racism in America

    George Rebane Systemic racism is alive and well in America, and it has been in a fine fettle for most of the last fifty years.  We have our progressive and Marxist neighbors to thank for bringing it to our attention, only not in the way that they have massaged the national message.  All of our…

  • All the news youse can use

    George Rebane Ever try to find a coherent set of TV program ratings on the web?  I just tried to do it again, after avoiding the frustration for a number of years.  My sweetie-pie and I were having one of our breakfast conversations when the topic turned to a news article that cited how informed…

  • Suppressing Climate Change Debate

    “If it’s consensus, it isn’t science. If it’s science, it isn’t consensus. Period.” - Michael Crichton in a famous 2003 lecture at Caltech. George Rebane The evil Democrats and their corporatist allies continue their massive nationwide campaign to suppress speech and the First Amendment.  Among their latest forays in this area of America’s public discourse is…

  • Equality vs Equity

    George Rebane The latest socialist bamboozle is the Democrats’ new declaration that America is now more racially divided than it has been for years, and what we now need to fix our society is to pass new laws and regulations to instill equity across the land.  Forget about equality, we’re now told that is a…

  • Scattershots – 12may21 (updated 14may21)

    George Rebane Online cheating at all time high (here).  Getting someone else to do your assignment or take your test is a big business in the current epoch of remote learning.  Students cite the difficulty in learning anything in the remote and virtual presentations of material they are offered.  Others say that the stress level…
