Genghis Bush - ILANA MERCER

“Let Milo design The Wall. If conservatives can rehabilitate the unrepentant George Bush; they can forgive Milo for saying stupid stuff.”—ILANA, “Let Milo Design The Wall,” March 3, 2017, The Liberty Conservative.
“Said Saint Augustine, ‘The confession of evil works is the first beginning of good works.’ The Republican Party under Bush did the devil’s work. Bar the sainted Ron Paul, not a dog of a Republican lifted his leg in protest of the unjust war on Iraq. To embark on the good, the GOP must come clean about the bad.”—ILANA (February 19, 2016)
“Donald Trump has buried George W. Bush, for good. Or so we hope. This might not be ‘Morning in America,’ but it is a moral victory for values in America. Somewhere in those Judeo-Christian values touted by ‘values voters’ is an injunction against mass murder.”—ILANA (February 26, 2016)
“We do know. We can say for sure. And we have all the documents. George W. Bush lied America into war.”—ILANA (February 26, 2016)
“Whereas Barack Obama allowed Hillary to henpeck him into destabilizing one country, Libya; Bush Jr. gave the world the Iraq-Syria Axis of ISIS.”—ILANA (January 22, 2016)
“Barack Obama’s cringe-factor has crescendoed—so much so that conservatives feel comfortable about dusting off an equally awful dictator, Bush 43, and presenting him and his dynasty to the public for another round.”—ILANA (“Don’t Get ‘Grubered’ By W’s Groupies,” Nov. 21, 2014)
“Sideshow ‘O’ has done Bush one better. Obama is using the the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) provisions against ‘friendlies.'”—ILANA (May 17, 2013)
“The dome of drones with which Barack Obama has blanketed the world, and this president’s more modest forays abroad—these have only convinced conservatives of the righteousness of Genghis Bush’s faith-based initiative to Iraq and beyond.”—ILANA (May 10, 2013)
On the difference between Bush and Obama: “C’mon. Six trillion dollars of debt vs. eight trillion: the act of racking up such financial liabilities exists on a continuum of criminality – it does not constitute a difference in kind (or in ‘core values’).” —ILANA (August 6, 2010)
“Bush and Obama are not big government guys. Genghis B. and B. Hussein Obama stand guilty of government giganticism; of government elephantiasis.” —ILANA (August 6, 2010)
“Bush harbored a death wish for America of the Founders. So does Obama.”—ILANA (March 6, 2009)
“George W. Bush set the scene for Barack H. Obama. Stimulus, bailouts, a house for every Hispanic—these were Bush’s babies.”—ILANA (March 6, 2009)
“’Bush’s bailout society‘ is an instantiation of the principles upon which ‘Bush’s ownership society’ was founded: credit for those who are not creditworthy.—ILANA (October 3, 2008)
“Bush’s ownership society, built as it was on quicksand, has metamorphosed into the bailout society.”—ILANA (September 26, 2008)
“Bush would wrestle a crocodile for a criminal alien. Medellín the murderer was no exception.”—ILANA (August 8, 2008)
“Bush babble, I believe, is less a consequence of congenital stupidity than it is of the confusion caused by incessant, habitual lying. —ILANA (February 8, 2008)
“The Bush Doctrine: Aggress against non-aggressors (Iraq); surrender to aggressors (gangs, goons and grafter crossing our Southwestern border).”—ILANA (March 7, 2008)
“Left-liberals … believe a judicial activist is someone who reverses precedent. George Bush thinks a judicial activist is someone who disobeys the President.”—ILANA (October 3, 2005)
“Bush’s ‘bring ’em on’ grin one can also observe on the face of a demented patient with end-stage syphilis.”—ILANA MERCER “BUSH’S 16 WORDS MISS THE BIG PICTURE,” (July 16, 2003)
“Bush is a stupid man, but he’s not a yes man. He’s not even a ‘let’s-hear-what-you-have-to-say’ man. He’s a ‘do-as-I-say’ ‘Decider,’ a nickname he gave himself.”—ILANA (July 13, 2007)
“Bush has betrayed US borders and identity because, he doesn’t believe in them. Afghani and Israeli: if Bush had his way, they’d all be molded into global democrats, citizens of the world.”—ILANA (July 13, 2007)
“I liked Bush when he started out. Libertarians were generally hopeful about a president who promised a humble foreign policy and less taxation. I still liked Bush when he chased bin Laden in Afghanistan. But soon after, the real Bush revealed himself to anyone willing to see: A man with a megalomaniacal glint in the eyes and an unstoppable will to wage war on a backward, secular, harmless Arab state, hobbled by sanctions.” (July 13, 2007)
“Bush … should be slithering on his belly to Bashar to thank him for serving as the US’s pressure relief valve vis-à-vis Iraq. Together, Jordan and Syria have taken in 1.6 million fleeing Iraqi refugees.”—ILANA (April 2, 2007)
“If Bush is so concerned about how the Arab world views us, he should not have invaded a sovereign Arab country, killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians, and propelled the place into a bloody civil war.”—ILANA (March 11, 2006)
“Why would George Bush care whether Harriet E. Miers can tell Blackstone from Bentham when he can’t?”—ILANA (October 3, 2005)
“Our Demagogue-in-Chief insists that democracy will both empower and pacify Muslims. [But] Democratic elections across the Muslim world would see the pan-Islamists take power everywhere; then elections would cease.”—ILANA (January 26, 2005)
“Bush bamboozled Boobus Americanus into believing that war in Iraq and terrorism in America were mutually exclusive conditions.”—ILANA MERCER (November 4, 2005)
“Bush only recently and reluctantly dropped one untruth from his repertoire of fictoids— that empty weather-monitoring vans harbored teams of Dr. Suleiman Strangeloves.”—ILANA MERCER, “HE CONTORTS, I DECIDE,” August 13, 2004
“In the process of pursuing some sort of neoconservative ‘Manifest Destiny,’ President Bush has junked the American Constitution—it gave him no authority to ‘promote’ global freedom, democracy or nation-building with blood and treasure not his own.”—ILANA (September 11, 2003)
“George W. Bush is oblivious to a basic principle of his own conservative ideology: Top-down central planning—economic or political—is doomed to fail.”—ILANA (September 11, 2003)
“Under the Bush Iraq Doctrine, evidence against a theory constitutes evidence for a theory: No smoking gun meant that there was a hidden gun somewhere or a plan to acquire a gun, or a hidden plan to acquire a gun and hide it.”—ILANA MERCER, “Axis of Illogic” (December 18, 2002)
