  • 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…

  • George Rebane Dan Henninger’s ‘Dumb and Dumber’ is a corroborating essay on the relentless growth of ‘dumbth’ in America.  As technology accelerates, the failures of government unionized schools grow more impactive on our social order in everything from understanding governance to finding a job.  President Obama, the Left’s penultimate liar (now overshadowed by HRC) continues…

  • 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…

  • [This article was submitted by Mr Norm Sauer of Nevada City, retired attorney, Nevada City resident, and member of the Union Editorial Board.  The Union has declined to publish it.  The piece appears here, as received, in line with RR's policy on publishing its readers, and also to augment my thin coverage of HRC's astounding 'interview' - definitely…

  • George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 14 September 2016.] There was happy dancing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue this morning.  The much publicized mirth has to do with what appears to a break in the longstanding doldrums in which our economy has been mired for the last eight…

  • 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…
