  • The Din of the Downward Drums

    George Rebane [From time to time it’s good to recall that a prime purpose of RR is to leave a record that in this day and age not all Americans were informationally deprived sheeple who daily swallowed the lies and propaganda of its Constitution defying and corrupt government peopled by the abysmally ignorant and terminally…

  • The fed’s ‘Fair and Balanced’ is creeping back (Addended) (updated 18feb14)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 14 February 2014.] In the roaring 40s, that’s the 1940s, when socialism was still trying to reestablish its Depression era foothold in the United States, the Federal Communications Commission was one of the federal agencies that worked hard to spread its…

  • Economic Bombshells Muffled

    George Rebane Those getting their news from the lamestream regularly miss important aspects of recent developments.  Three particular items come to mind that will first affect our economy, and then perhaps impact our slide toward socialism. The Republicrats have repealed the requirement for a national debt ceiling, thereby allowing the Treasury to continue borrowing with…

  • The Liberal Mind – Work and Workers (updated 11feb14)

    George Rebane Two major factors are now in the forefront of impending social upheavals in America – the growing economic destruction wrought by Obamacare and the accelerating surge of systemic unemployment.  And there is little help on the way because the polarized sides have no middle ground in which to search for solutions.  To even…

  • They continue to prepare for us

    George Rebane With every passing day governments at all levels fear Americans more and more.  RR readers are well informed (here and here) on the unexplainable reasons why such diverse bureaus and agencies as EPA, US Forest Service, Dept of Eduction, NOAA, …, and now the USPS (here) are buying millions of rounds of small…

  • Newspeak describes Obamacare (updated 14feb14)

    ‘In the West, everything that is not forbidden is allowed; in the East everything not allowed is forbidden.’  Cold War summary of the two sides that today highlights the difference between the Right and the Left. George Rebane Since the CBO report on the latest estimate of Obamacare’s jobs destruction, all kinds of liberal spin…

  • Journalism’s New Lows or just SOP?

    George Rebane The low cognitive reach of today’s journalists in intellect, knowledge base, and command of English is well recognized.  But more and more of their deficits in reasoning and research are making themselves felt as they fall behind in their role as our society’s watchdogs.  Three examples will illustrate. Gov Christie’s ‘Bridgegate’ is not…

  • Farm Bill Gutted, Compromised, and Castrated (updated 30jan14)

    George Rebane I don’t even want think about Obama’s SOTU speech last night, it was a five star non-starter that served only one purpose, to act as cover for the Republicans’ caving on the 2014 farm bill that will soon become law of the land for the next five years.  The bill came out of…

  • State of the Union – we wait with trepidation

    George Rebane NPR woke us up this morning with another cheery report of California’s progress in education and unfunded public employees’ pension liabilitities.  We are now told that latest testing shows three out of four fourth graders are reading below grade level.  And the solution to that is, …, wait for it, more of the…

  • Bookends to Income Inequality (Addended)(updated 27jan14)

    George Rebane [This is the transcript to my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 24 January 2014.] The class warfare drums have been dusted off and are again starting to pound ever more loudly across our land.  It is time to put Obamacare and the economy behind us, and focus on the nation’s real problem –…
