Category: Great Divide

  • States enforcing federal laws

    George Rebane Today SCOTUS handed down a decision to strike down major provisions of Arizona’s attempt to enforce fallow federal laws against illegal aliens – both illegal immigrants and illegal entrants.  The 25jun12 WSJ reports –  The court backed a section of the Arizona state law that calls for police to check the immigration status…

  • ‘Whose fault?’ and ‘market morality’

    George Rebane On Russ Steele’s NC2012 there is a comment stream in which people are groping for some middle ground.  I have contributed to it by asking what would one do with such a middle ground, were one to be discovered.  The point being that it’s highly likely that there is no profitable middle ground…

  • The Great Divide – the debate continues

    George Rebane RL ‘Bob’ Crabb posted ‘Inept vs Insane: The National Feud’ on his blog which by its title alone invited a heated discussion in its comment stream.  I put in my two cents and started a thread that had Bob worrying that people would “put holes in (his) new blog”.  Points were raised and…

  • The Liberal Mind – Yes Virginia, we really are different (updated 10apr12)

    George Rebane The curious and inexplicable course of our polarized public discourse has been examined for some time in these pages, even to the extent that ‘The Liberal Mind’ is an RR category of collected posts on this issue.  To a reasonable person on the so-called Right, the reasoning processes of the so-called Left are…

  • Why we rage and what we can never condone

    George Rebane Here's a detail that has escaped me about the whole can of worms about the millions of illegal aliens in our country and the thousands more arriving every month.  The US Code dating back to 1940 required all aliens in the US to present proper identification giving evidence of their status when required…

  • The Great Divide – 29feb12 update on work in process (updated 4mar12)

    George Rebane This is a weblog entry to update our ‘progress’ toward a fundamental transformation of America.  As has been discussed, we are past the tipping point with two alternative destinations that will redefine the social, economic, and political landscape of the North American landmass.  The first is the United Socialist States of America (USSA)…

  • Occupy vs TeaParty – A comparative summary

    George Rebane The following table arrived from a correspondent and RR reader.  We note the similarities in the two movements.  Edifying.

  • Obama now ‘The Divider’

    George Rebane The Great Divide (and search RR) has been a subject of interest and debate among readers.  Our friends from the Left honor me with accusations of being a lone rogue in shining a light on the path that appears to be tearing the country apart.  Unfortunately as thinkers and commentators across the country…

  • We Are the Real Terrorists

    George Rebane Truthout.org has published a major article ‘Breivik's Fundamentalist War on Politics, and Ours’ which is a progressive manifesto, and itself a declaration of war on conservatives and their politics.  Author Henry Giroux (one of truthout’s “news analysts”) forges every connection imaginable between Breivik, the Norwegian mass murderer, and anybody to the right of…

  • Ruminations – 15jun2012

    The experiment that said “the bigger the state, the more just the society” clearly failed. There is no point pretending that it didn’t. – Tony Blair George Rebane – It’s the Sun, stupid!– Dems put bad stuff on hold til 2012– Mexican right of return Russ Steele at NC Media Watch reports here the latest real…
