  • And what if we just say NO? (Addended again)

    George Rebane [This the transcript of the 19nov2010 edition of my bi-weekly KVMR-FM 89.5 commentary.  Today’s cartoon in the 20nov2010 Union by my friend RL ‘Bob’ Crabb is on the same topic.  It is here purloined by permission.] This week I attended the November luncheon meeting of the Nevada County Republican Women Federated, of which I…

  • The Tea Party Movement – here to stay

    George Rebane Last night at the GV Elks Lodge the Nevada County Tea Party Patriots held a packed house celebration of the mid-term election results – California excepted, but Nevada County included.  Jo Ann and I attended with our friends Russ and Ellen Steele.  While both Russ and I did our usual scribbling during the goings…

  • Ruminations – 29oct2010

    George Rebane The chronicle of the young but mighty Tea Party Movement (TPM) has been started and is being presented as a multi-part series starting in today’s 29oct10 WSJ (here).  Because the TPM is truly an American grass roots phenomenon, the recounting of its birth and today’s adolescence is a bit of a mish-mash.  The…

  • A Peek Into a Cozy Nest

    George Rebane Yesterday afternoon the Northern Sierra Air Quality Management District held its scheduled Board of Directors meeting at the Helling Library.  I attended as the only representative of ‘the public’.  Actually, I went there to witness our local AQMD’s deliberation on CARB’s AB32 new diesel regulations that threaten to and probably will drive out…

    George Rebane Evidence is mounting daily that the California Air Resources Board is grossly incompetent – this in addition to having all the other diseases and ailments that normally infect big powerful government bureaucracies.  The SF Chronicle reported (here) over two weeks ago that – California grossly miscalculated pollution levels in a scientific analysis used…

    George Rebane The October luncheon meeting of the Nevada County Republican Women Federated was again held at the Alta Sierra Country Club and was well attended by its large and growing cohort of members and associate members of which I count myself.  Attending with me was my friend and fellow blogger Russ Steele of NC…

  • … of shoes and ships and sealing wax (and SBC)

    George Rebane The local blogs and my emails have been buzzing with questions and charges of how non-profit 501c3  organizations (like SBC) and private California corporations (like CABPRO) should deport themselves.  Apropos such organizations, attorney Barry Pruett (Inside NC Politics) has given good tutorials on the relevant sections of the tax code.  My problem with…

  • Nevada County Treasurer – The Dai and Tina Show (updated 4oct2010)

    George Rebane Dai Meagher and Tina Vernon are the two candidates running for Nevada County Treasurer. Over the last few weeks there have been some rumors that Dai has had a tax lien in his financial past.  I asked Dai about this, and he confirmed to me that this indeed was the case, and the…

  • As the Elections Nears

    George Rebane We should expect more from the American Redistribution and Re-election Act.  Please note the recent $222K bump; details here.
