Weapons for the GOP punditocracy
Friday November 20, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is advancing on the country with an $848 billion health-care bill in hand, which he hopes to bring to the Senate floor before he and cohorts go on holiday. Yet the swiftest arrow in the Republican punditocracy's Obamacare quiver remains this: ...
Your government's jihadi-protection program
Friday November 13, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- To claim you correspond with an al-Qaida recruiter for purposes of "research" is like saying you read Playboy magazine for the articles. The jihadi who committed fratricide at Fort Hood would never have advanced such fatuities. Leave such deception to the nation's military and intellig ...
What? Southern rubes aren't racists after all?
Friday November 06, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- Blanket charges of racism have become the stock-in-trade of the liberal media in reporting on town-hall protesters. For converging to petition their representatives about the administration's profligate policies, independent-minded, patriotic constitutionalists have been savaged by rabid reporter ...
Old blights (Afghanistan) and new (Barack)
Friday October 30, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- A Kabul-based United Nations guesthouse is the latest target to be hit by Afghan insurgents. Eight people, including an American, were killed. Three days prior, capital-city Kabul was the scene of a helicopter crash that claimed 14 American lives, in what the Associated Press characteri ...
On boobs and balloons
Friday October 23, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- If you needed incontrovertible proof that homegrown retardation is far more pressing a problem than homegrown terrorism in modern-day America – 6-year-old Falcon Heene's flight of fancy provided it. The contagion that gripped the nation began on Oct. 15. Anyone turning on the boo ...
Writing in the Age of the Idiot
Friday October 09, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- The reasons for addressing readers' responses to last week's column, "Paleoconservative hypocrisy," lie not in an exaggerated sense of self-importance, but in a sense of urgency. For some particularly jarring retorts (these h ...
Paleoconservative hypocrisy
Friday October 02, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- Geert Wilders is a Dutch parliamentarian and leader of the Freedom Party (PVV). He, and 60 percent of the Dutch population, "considers mass immigration to be the worst mistake since the Second World War." An equal percentage of Wilders' countrymen see Islam as the No. 1 threat to their national i ...
Life in the Oink Sector
Friday September 25, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- Be it the "public option" (that'll eliminate all other options), the co-opting "co-op," or the make-believe market that is the "insurance exchange" – if implemented, these euphemisms for centrally planned medicine will mean many more bureaucracies manned by plenty of government workers. ...
They all lie for someone
Friday September 18, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- Joe Wilson knows of what he speaks. South Carolina's Republican representative is what one of my readers has dubbed deliciously a "subject matter expert" on providing federal health benefits to illegal aliens. Wilson voted "Yea" for the Bush "Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and ...
Is heartland America ignorant and gullible?
Thursday September 10, 2009 by Ilana Mercer -- Given the perpetual parade of "intellectuals" who are not intelligent in our media – Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, PBS and the "parrot press" – I don't expect you to be familiar with political philosopher Paul E. Gottfried. Nevertheless, Paul (he's a friend) is one of ...
