    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 14 December 2016.  The addendum contains graphics and links relevant to the arguments of the commentary.] It is again time to take a look at how America’s future is shaping up with respect to the most important measure available – the…

  • Election 2016 Fallout

    [Mr Norm Sauer is a retired attorney, member of The Union Editorial Board, and a regular columnist for the newspaper.  He submitted the following article to RR and The Union which also published it today (here).  In this piece Mr Sauer reflects on the election's aftermath and its portents; it is posted as received.  gjr]…

  • Working for a post-American future

    George Rebane Recent email revelations have put paid on the longheld conclusion that America’s Left is actively working to take us into a post-American future.  This view is underwritten by most on the Right and many on the Left.  The entire proposition is wrapped up in the widely accepted notion of an evolving America.  Currently…

  • Dump Trump and Pillory Hillary – 27oct16 (updated 29oct16)

    George Rebane While I’m working on a piece to again attempt – more graphically this time – to explain the fragility of highly categorized poll results, the news of the election’s uncertain outcome pours in.  Readers should take special note of the financial markets in which the big kids such as the very wealthy, institutional…

  • The STS Crisis??! WTF!

    George Rebane The progressive plague is well on its way into the STEM fields, seeking to put their moralizing stamp on what our STEM workers should (and ultimately can) think about and work on.  The same progressive pinheads have finally concluded that the discoveries of science and the developments of engineering are not ‘value neutral’…

  • Our Pernicious Progressive Press

    George Rebane ‘The Press Buries Clinton’s Sins’ writes WSJ’s Kim Strassel as she outlines the overwhelmingly one-sided reporting “as reporters focus on Trump, the miss new details on Clinton’s rotten record.”  By “miss” she means pernicious failure to report the daily mounting evidence that defines the public record of Hillary’s actions, actions which for others…

  • ‘Immigration in 1958 vs. 2016’

    [Under the same title this piece by Ms Annamaria Sauer was published in the 8oct16 edition of The Union.  Ms Sauer emailed the article and at her request it is happily posted here as received.  The Sauers are friends, and as an ethnic Estonian I share an ancient relationship with Annamaria the ethnic Hungarian for…

  • Never Forget (updated)

    We must never forget that 9/11 was NOT a natural disaster. [update] This morning I am sickened and saddened at our national observances of the 9/11 Islamic terror attacks and their reports in the lamestream media.  Examining the public remarks of leaders like President Obama and reports by Associated Press et al, they come across…

  • Ruminations – 6sep16 (updated 10sep16)

    George Rebane Windpower works when energy markets are deregulated.  Texas continues to make news. “The roots of Texas’ renewables boom go back to 1999, when then-Gov. George W. Bush and a Republican-dominated legislature overhauled the Texas power market. The free market-oriented deregulation broke the grip of most monopoly utilities that controlled generation, transmission and retail…

  • ‘Misreading the Nordic Model’

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 31 August 2016.] For quite some time now Americans have heard the siren song of Nordic socialism performed consistently by our country’s Left from which more and more are actually outing themselves as socialists.  In this election season we have heard…
