  • Calexit and the Great Divide

    Not all liberals are stupid; many of them just have bad luck when they try to think. George Rebane [An edited and ‘liberally’ criticized version of this post was published (here) in the 4feb17 issue of The Union.  I answer my critics here.] Well, it’s now official – multi-kulti does not work.  There are limits to cultural differences…

  • Ruminations – 28jan17 (updated)

    George Rebane The progressive media pundits and political cartoonists have gotten a reprieve on creativity.  For at least the next four years they will each get a pass by posting a Trash Trump piece.  I suppose that’s only fair, but while the conservatives didn’t have that latitude with our recently retired Sec8 president, they did…

  • Ruminations – 17jan17 (updated 18jan17)

    The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you can see. – Winston Churchill George Rebane Well, the Dems now have a rip that’s hard to hide – they are a bit fragmented after the election didn’t turn out as bought and paid for, and their intramural shenanigans were exposed to the world, and everyone now…

  • A Tendentious Change in the Offing

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 11 January 2017.] In a few days we will witness the most tendentious changing of the guard our republic has had since Abe Lincoln was sworn in.  Now that’s ‘tendentious’ like in ‘having or showing a definite tendency, bias, or purpose’. …

  • ‘The Russians did it.’ (updated 9jan17)

    George Rebane It turns out that you can fool most of the people, most of the time – a truth long known to politicians, lawyers, and journalists. Yesterday DNI James R Clapper released ‘Assessing Russian Activity and Intentions in Recent US Elections’ dated 6 January 2017.  This 25-page report was supposed to supply the long-awaited…

  • Our Socialists Are Pissed

    George Rebane The ground shaking shock of 8 November 2016 is not going away; it is getting stronger if anything.  And as Team Trump unveils more of its projected policies and planned programs, America’s socialists along with their well-placed elites are getting more and more scared.  Why?  Because with each described initiative it looks like…

  • Scattershots – 3jan17 (updated 4jan17)

    George Rebane Having strong or well-formed political beliefs doesn’t always mean that one is also willing or able to reason about them. Now some keenly honed liberal minds around here think that we should consider the source and therefore ignore the evidence against Hillary.  That’s like telling the DA he can’t prosecute because the police…

  • New S#!t List of “creative and liberal minded” artists

    George Rebane The Left’s raw hatred of President-elect Trump and his supporters knows no bounds.  The man is not yet sworn in, and already leftwing artists are going out of their way to proclaim that they will not perform at his inaugural.  Not long ago, being asked to perform at a presidential event was considered…

  • This Swamp Will Not Drain

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 28 December 2016.] Fifty-five years ago President Eisenhower warned America about the military-industrial complex which he saw had an “unwarranted influence” on our polity.  In the years following, this notion became a rallying cry for our liberals.  But since then the bogeyman…

  • Islamophobia Explained

    George Rebane By all accounts according to the progressives’ definition I am an islamophobe.  My apprehension of Islam’s colonization and eventual conquest of the west has been well documented in these pages.  The ill-read and uneducated leftwingers have taken such apprehensions to be the outrageous screeds of a minority back country white knuckledraggers.  It is hard…
