Category: Great Divide

  • Bipartisanship RIP (updated 7mar17)

    George Rebane A couple of days have passed since President Trump’s speech to Congress, so you’d think some of the dust would start to settle – not a chance.  The Left did not hear even a semblance of the speech the rest of us did.   The Alt-Left is now firmly in charge of the Democratic…

  • Where Now Democrats? (updated 10feb17)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 8 February 2017.] A lot has happened on both sides of the aisle in the last couple of weeks.  President Trump is off to a determined if not bumpy start to deliver on his campaign promises, and the Democrats …?  Well,…

  • Exactly how did the Russkies do it??

    George Rebane Well now that Congressman John Lewis has declared the Trump presidency “illegitimate”, that icon of civil rights and registration-free voting has attracted more Democrat politicians to join him on the leftwing’s bandwagon to oppose our new president.  Lewis’ contention is that the election is illegitimate due to Russia’s “conspiracy” to oppose Clinton, thereby…

  • Our Socialists Are Pissed

    George Rebane The ground shaking shock of 8 November 2016 is not going away; it is getting stronger if anything.  And as Team Trump unveils more of its projected policies and planned programs, America’s socialists along with their well-placed elites are getting more and more scared.  Why?  Because with each described initiative it looks like…

  • The National Pipeline Lie (updated 10dec16)

    George Rebane As we observe the 75th anniversary of ‘The day that will live in infamy’, it is good to reflect on what brought about that day, and several such days since then.  Traditionally isolationists in the early 20th century years, we were told that WW1 was the war to end all wars.  Most people…

  • Progressives Partying on a Pimple

    George Rebane ‘YES, California!’ draws more than a smile from some of us longtime prescients who witness the ongoing dissolution of the America our forebears and we have labored to build.  In these pages and on some other commentariats this has been labeled as the coming Great Divide.  There is no agreement in which of…

  • So where now?

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 23 November 2016.] So where are we going now?  We have a new president-elect voted in by Americans living across the vast expanse of our continent, people who dwell mostly in the smaller cities and towns, people who work the land, people…

  • Living in Colonial America

    George Rebane The land that you live on matters.  Our Founders and their neighbors knew that, and when they lost control of their lives and livelihoods to a distant power, they separated their homelands from foreign control so that they could again determine the common course of their own lives, families, and enterprises.  Today America…

  • Trump’s Tentative Triumph (updated 10nov16)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary to be broadcast tonight.  I am posting it early due to the heavy reader interest and related comments pertaining to yesterday’s election.] Early this morning columnist David Brooks, NYT’s futile nod to political balance, opined that Trump’s victory was made possible by Americans…

  • In the Wake of the Great Divider

    George Rebane The collectivist of whatever hue avoids reasoned debate wherever he encounters it because he quickly finds that his cherished arguments are but baseless slogans that will not even support a conversation thread let alone serve as a riposte to reason.  Moreover, he also discovers that attempts to seek refuge in history, science, or economics…
