  • George Rebane I want to get this post up in a timely manner for tonight’s last debate of the most fractious political season since the Confederates finally decided to open fire on Ft Sumter.  In my decades I have never seen the country so frustrated and choose our candidates so unwisely.  For the Left, the…

  • George Rebane Who among us could stand to have their each and every private utterance displayed on a klieg lit national billboard?  Donald Trump’s most recently revealed transgression is causing an affected coast-to-coast hyperventilation at an intensity that for some more sensitive souls may result in a medical problem.  Upon close inspection there is nothing…

  • George Rebane ALL authorizations of government actions not related to national security shall be identified to the specific person responsible, duly recorded and archived citing applicable authority, and subsequently made available to the public upon legitimate inquiry.  ALL such government actions whose authorizations turn out anonymous shall immediately be deemed illegal on their face, and those…

  • George Rebane Well boys and girls, the candidates went after each other in a most civil manner tonight.  The ad hominems were at an absolute minimum.  Hillary's health was not an issue; the lady stood up to the rigors of the evening in a commendable manner.  Both gave presidential level performances, and if anything, I…

  • George Rebane OK, boys and girls, I see that between now and November many of us will have real serious problems with the two main candidates running for president.  To date these feelings have proven so strong that they demand expression under posts of opportunity, posts that have more focused topics and whose comment streams don’t…

  • [Last night the various factions of the local MMJ stakeholders held a townhall gathering in the historic Nevada Theater.  It was moderated by Pascale Fusshoeller of Yubanet.com and broadcast live on KVMR.  Jo Ann and I were in attendance in the packed hall.  The on onstage panel of five made lengthy opening statements after which they…

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 6 July 2016.] Today millions of Americans believe that yesterday morning we saw justice publicly executed at the hand of a corrupt federal government.  And the executioner was none other than FBI Director James Comey, who was not supposed to wield…

  • George Rebane This morning we heard FBI Director James Comey announce that the bureau’s exhaustive investigation found no reason to bring criminal charges against Hillary Clinton regarding the goings on with her private email servers when she was Secretary of State. His conclusion was based on two factors – Lack of intent to harm the…
