  • The fat lady has sung, off key (Addended and updated)

    George Rebane [This is the addended, edited, and updated transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 16 December 2020.] Last Monday the Electoral College elected Joe Biden to be the 46th president of the United States.  The election was heavily contested for two distinct reasons, but to no avail.  Let me be clear from…

  • From Fox News to …? (updated 14nov20)

    George Rebane OK boys and girls, things have gotten rotten in the Murdoch media empire.  I’ve been pissing and moaning about Fox News for months now (always did have my gimlet eye trained on them) as their news coverage and copy kept drifting, now visibly sliding, toward lamestream journalism.  Their ‘fair, balanced, and unafraid’ has…

  • I fear for our beloved Republic (updated 7nov20)

    George Rebane With the election over and unknown thousands of votes yet to be discovered, counted, and adjudicated, we have entered a virgin and wild land untrammeled in our history.  Having arrived therein, today we are literally a polarized population of pioneers who see the other as savages to be subdued.  Common ground for launching…

  • Scattershots – 4sep20 (updated 9sep20)

    The most important goal of the leftist project is to use the twin 2020 tragedies to alter the very storyline of America. – Mike Gonzales George Rebane The Great Divide draws nigh.  One of our astute readers highlighted ‘The Revolution is Upon Us’ by Mike Gonzales in the comment stream of the last Sandbox.  It…

  • Shifting from the Fourth to the Fifth

    George Rebane Let me get this straight, led by Rep Schiff, the Dems are taking the DHS to task for doing its job in developing and providing intelligence on today’s anti-American rioters, their enablers, and their propagandists.  WaPo, the arch-leftwing lamestream outlet, presents one of its totally misleading reports on what’s happening in the land,…

  • E Pluribus Unum – Still? Really? (updated 2aug20)

    George Rebane ‘There are more things that unite Americans than drive them apart.’  This shibboleth, or one in a similar vein, is often heard when conversation-lite turns to the polarization now visible everywhere in our land.  Unfortunately, these conversations don’t go much deeper than the participants sagely nodding their heads before abandoning the topic and…

  • Reflections on Racism – no time to decide (updated)

    George Rebane A barren desert is now the middle ground separating Americans from their woke and fundamentally transformed brethren. Racism has been an enduring theme on RR for years – e.g. back in 2010, through the years, and a more recent commentary in 2019.  With readers we have dissected it 20 ways from Sunday.  Even…

  • Hunker Down Diary – 16jun20

    “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”  A. Lincoln George Rebane Yesterday was HD100 for the Rebanes, and Jo Ann announced that we are done hunkering down.  Truth be known, this will not be a sudden change in our collective behviors, we’ve been kinda easing out of our lockdown over the last few weeks.  And…

  • Riot Reflections – 30may20 (updated)

    George Rebane The videod murder of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis police gave rise to justified public protests that quickly turned into destructive and violent riots which have little to do with the death of Mr Floyd, and instead have again revealed that we Americans are no longer ‘one people’ who can…

  • Local liberals lambast loosening lockdowns (updated)

    George Rebane As we and others across the country have pointed out, phasing out the C19 lockdowns has become the latest political chasm in the Great Divide.  You know that our country is now fundamentally transformed when it can no longer come together for a unified response to a national emergency.  It’s not a reach…
