  • George Rebane The passage of Obamacare promises to be the first salvo of the socialist trifecta that takes the country well beyond the tipping point from the Republic the Founders left us.  The left will celebrate this day as the beginning of the end of the evil United States that they have been battling against…

  • George Rebane The Republican Caucus released this cost summary (Download HBC Analysis of CBO Est HR4872) to their membership yesterday after the version of the House healthcare bill was made public.  The facts summarized are substantive, and, if false, can be exposed.  I predict that the Dems will continue to divert our attention with the fraudulent argument that it's Obamacare…

  • George Rebane Anyone have any money on Obama actually going to Indonesia in June, or any time soon in a blue moon?  Cancelling the double delayed Sunday departure is smart, the scars where his statues were have not yet overgrown with weeds.  And the last we heard, they were still painting his welcoming signs. Bret…

  • George Rebane I have a bad feeling about the upcoming vote on healthcare – it may pass.  The legislation is so horrific that the progressives bent on bringing the next notch of authoritarianism to America are now going to “deem” the Senate’s bill into being without actually passing it.  The sleazebags are so brazen that…

  • George Rebane County CEO Rick Haffey sent out this warning in his usual ‘Friday memo’ to the Supes yesterday.  Good stuff to know as we prepare to answer the 2010 census.  Beware of Fraudulent Census Questionnaires: You may have seen the all county e-mail that was sent out yesterday concerning fraudulent census questionnaires. As the…

  • George Rebane Readers familiar with my screeds were informed almost two years ago of the unfunded liabilities game played across our formerly golden state.   One aspect of the game was how Calpers – the world’s largest state employees’ retirement fund manager – was projecting its future income from the retirement monies it invests.  The yokels…

  • George Rebane Grandson Lucas continues to clear the boards up in Washington state, and his team is headed for the state finals in Spokane. Picture from the Redmond-Reporter.com.  I knew all you guys were waiting for this report 😉  

  • George Rebane Most of us watched some of the political theater from the Blair House yesterday.  As predicted, at least by those who took a day off from lying, the event didn’t go anywhere.  It might have made some of the slow students think that Obamacare is just starting out from somewhere in the ideological…
