  • Ruminations – 6jun13 (updated 7jun13)

    Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force! You are about to embark upon a great crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty loving people everywhere march with you. In company with our brave Allies and brothers in…

  • Mugsy explains it away

    George Rebane [At police headquarters we enter the viewing room showing an interrogation already in progress with Mugsy, an accomplished bank robber.] Detective:  So Mugsy, we had you under surveillance and saw you enter the bank packing heat and a note in your pocket that read, ‘THIS IS A HOLDUP, don’t make any noise or…

  • … in the Eye of the Beholder

    "That's because we haven't yet played Cowboys and Muslims, but it's a'comin'."  (punchline to a joke about a conversation between an American Indian, a Muslim exchange student, and an old cowboy waiting at a small town airport in Montana.) George Rebane Readers should be clear by now that I don’t record these thoughts to endear…

  • Travails of our Community Organizer (updated 30may13)

    George Rebane Actually, that should have been ‘… our out-of-depth Community Organizer’; but where to begin? The ongoing and growing scandals – Asleep or fiddling while Benghazi burns, Holder going after Fox News reporter, IRS going after conservative orgs, DOJ tapping into AP, … – are piling up faster than the administration spin doctors can…

  • Fetus + 12 inches = Baby

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 17 May 2013.] OK, if you’ve been habitually glued to the lamestream media, you probably just recently heard of the murder trial of late term abortionist and now convicted hat trick killer Dr Kermit Gosnell.  According to court testimony Gosnell ran a…

  • Ruminations – 16may13 (updated 18may13)

    George Rebane The flowering Obamagate scandals are simply “controversies” as National Propaganda Radio spent a great deal of time this morning assuring its audience.  Nothing special here, the President always comes out to the formally prepared East Room in the evenings to remark on little kerfuffles or differences of opinion.  Everyone go back to sleep.…

  • Living in Obamastan – what’s not to like?

    George Rebane What was foretold has come to pass, he has delivered with a vengeance and a promise of more to come. 1.    Benghazi – ineptness, tragedy, cover-up, lies, demonstration of weakness, …2.    Syria – inattention, ineptness, tragedy, loss of prestige and confidence, …3.    Obamacare – national healthcare and economic disaster, ultimate partisanship, ineptness, uncertainty,…

  • The Senate’s Amnesty Bill (updated 10apr13)

    George Rebane The Senate will “mark up” and pass their version of immigration reform, probably tomorrow.  What is turning out to be an amnesty bill has drawn a lot of fire from the Right for a lot of reasons, not all of them flying in tight formation.  For example, the Heritage Foundation has published a…

  • Breaking Bread – ‘2nd Amendment and Gun Control’ (updated 10may13)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 3 May 2013.  I have included an extensive addendum to memorialize the structure of the current gun control debate in our country’s widening ideological schism, and to illustrate key factors in the asymmetric understanding and approach taken by the Left and…

  • Ruminations – 30apr13 (edited)

    George Rebane New York is airing a series of hilarious ads claiming that it is now the best place in the nation to start a new business or find a home for an existing one.  And the basis for the hilarity?  Why, New York’s low taxes for such businesses coming to the Empire State.  Now…
