  • George Rebane by In service of the massive ‘gun violence’ diversion revived and orchestrated by Obama to bolster Democrats’ hopes for November, we here in Nevada County have decided to suddenly observe the 15th anniversary of a local tragedy in which an insane resident went on a rampage and killed three of our neighbors.  Keenly aware…

  • George Rebane Re Ms Annamaria Sauer’s letter in the 26dec15 Union responding to the charge that the NC Republican Women Federated are wasting their time deriving a biased, therefore worthless, audit of the newspaper’s count of publishing politically slanted op-ed content. The local hard Left has long criticized The Union as being tilted toward the…

  • George Rebane The local Left joins the national Left in their happy dance about the ‘Climate Change agreement’ reached in Paris this week.  What they don’t seem to appreciate is that it will have about as much impact on earth’s climate, no matter how widely it is accepted or rejected, as does the Iran deal…

  • George Rebane Some time ago I reported (here) on the results of an audit on the ideological tilt of The Union performed by the Nevada County Republican Women Federated. This was in response to our local Left claiming that our newspaper had become ‘The Tea Party Gazette’.  As usual, these know-nothings missed the boat.  The…

  • George Rebane Former county supervisor and current CEO of the Sierra Fund, Ms Izzy Martin, will most certainly become a significant factor promoting the formation of the new state of North California (see also State of Jefferson).  The community organizer and environmental activist is an archetype leftwinger who is doing everything possible to grow Leviathan…

  • George Rebane We have been told forever by the Left that our county’s Board of Supervisors is a non-partisan governing body.  No one believes it, especially our progressives, but the message must be repeated endlessly to the county’s light thinkers.  The existential fact is that the supes are all partisan and readily exhibit their individual…

  • George Rebane Kudos to Mr Frank Pinney for placing a full page ‘Paid Advertisement’ essay on the PGW hoax in the 9nov15 Union.  He summarizes in one place extensive data and information (covered here and on other regional blogs over the years) into one piece that also has a distinctly local flavor to it.  Its appearance now is timely due to the…

  • George Rebane The assumed level of perceived risk in competitive markets is constant.  When governments alleviate known risks, added unknown risks will be assumed to maintain the balance – profit demands it. Obama’s economy continues to scoot along on its butt.  Seven years on and we have finally achieved the steady state snail-paced GDP and…
