Category: Great Divide

  • Today’s Employment and Entrepreneurship

    George Rebane So here’s the drill.  In our risibly insane land we have the following three factors in some kind of convoluted and crazy collision when it comes to work and making workplaces. In today’s economy unfilled jobs abound by the millions.  Construction jobs not requiring a college education are near the top of the…

  • Scattershots – 6jul18 (updated 8jul18)

    A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves. – Bertrand De Jouvenel George Rebane Liberal logic juries.  Reviewing some of the ‘Russian interference’ comment streams to confirm the kind of logic our leftwing readers accept and present as evidence that Russia did indeed throw the 2016 election to assure Trump’s victory,…

  • Scattershots – 29may18 (updated)

    George Rebane The Great Divide debate continues as muddled as ever.  We refer to leftwing commenter jon smith’s 134pm re my 1104am in the 26may18 Sandbox.  The man(?) is apparently not aware of the years-long Great Divide debate in these pages and in the national dialogue (also referenced here, see RR’s ‘Great Divide’ category).  In…

  • Ruminations – 27feb18 (updated 3mar18)

    ‘Remember, the government cannot give anything to anyone that they have not first taken away from someone else.’ Anonymous George Rebane The Democratic Party’s sharp move to the left during the last ten years is now visible to all save only the most politically myopic among us.  Daily dunnings of fellow Democrats (especially in California)…

  • Deep State’s Rogue Roots (3feb18 update)

    George Rebane In a republic the only government oversight the people have is through their elected representatives, and that is necessarily political. The 2feb18 release of the Nunes memo underscores a serious concern that has arisen among most Americans since the Obama era national elections, and now heightened by the suspicious goings on during and…

  • ‘Truth Decay’ (updated 23jan18)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 17 January 2018.  A slightly edited version of the broadcast commentary appears here in the 20jan18 Union.] We are now such a tragically polarized nation that almost all of us believe we are being misled through the various media.  We believe…

  • Our idiots write

    [The letters from two local progressive worthies appeared in the 24nov17 Union.  They are published here as a part of the public service component of RR.  My commentaries on the liberal mind pale when compared to the real things.  You really can’t make this stuff up.  gjr] Trump-Republican gun culture and gun violence When will…

  • Democratic Socialists of America (updated 14nov17)

    Lord, give me coffee to change things I can change, wine to accept the things I cannot change, and bourbon to forget about the whole mess. George Rebane DSA candidates running openly as socialists under the Democrat banner now have 35 seats in the country’s state legislatures.  “Tuesday’s election night gains for the group were…

  • Sandbox – 5nov17

    [I think I'll start this sandbox off with another confirmation of the 'two separate worlds' notion that abets our progress toward the Great Divide.  It is always good to climb up the taxonomical tree to see under which branch these individual dust-ups we dissect belong.   A futile exchange on Bob Crabb’s blog (here).  Mr Crabb…

  • Racialism Rising

    George Rebane Racialism – the ideology, based on a heightened consciousness of the race of others, that promotes racial divisions and strife to hasten the breakdown of large sovereign nation-states on the road to a unified global world order. In America there should be as little room for racism as for racialism.  We Americans should equally…
