Bush’s Real Sin Was Winning in Iraq

In a few hours, George W. Bush will walk out of the Oval Office for the last time as president. As he leaves, he carries with him the near-universal opprobrium of the permanent class that inhabits our nation’s capital. Yet perhaps the most important reason for this unpopularity is the one least commented on. More […]

… Hardly a coup to boast about. It is a feat of derring-do on about the level of stealing books from libraries on busy days. Read more …

Journalism the loser in Quadrant con

  • John Styles

In the wake of the deception by a freelance journalist who tricked Quadrant into publishing a misleading article, I have a suggestion. Crikey columnist Margaret Simons and the freelance journalist, Katherine Wilson, could use Wilson’s forthcoming baby bonus as seed capital for a new gazette dedicated to their brand of journalistic ethics – working title Postmodern […]

This hoax a dud cheque

  • Keith Windschuttle

One of the inevitable consequences of the placement of a bogus article in the January-February edition of Quadrant by a team associated with the online publication Crikey and its writer Margaret Simons is that, in future, we will scrutinise more closely the personal credentials of authors who submit freelance contributions to the journal. Indeed, as […]

Margaret Simons and an apparent hoax on Quadrant

  • Keith Windschuttle

An author calling herself ‘Sharon Gould’ has tricked Quadrant into publishing in its January-February edition an article about popular scares on biotechnology issues. ‘Gould’ now claims her article is a hoax. However, there is something funny going on here which readers should be aware of. A genuine hoax, like that of Alan Sokal and Ern […]

Who caused the global economic crisis?

  • Roger Kimball

It was liberal Democrats, again led by Senator Christopher Dodd and Congressman Barney Frank, who for years pushed for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to go even further in promoting subprime mortgage loans, which are at the heart of today’s financial crisis. Alan Greenspan warned them four years ago. So did the Chairman of the […]

“Had you been listening to these [ABC] reports during the recent US elections, it would have been a complete mystery to you as to why any sane person would be considering voting for the Republican John McCain. The fact over 46 percent of US voters ended up doing so would baffle you.”

The world cools on global warming

from Wall Street Journal Europe … The Brussels summit symbolizes a turning point. The watered-down climate deal epitomizes the onset of a cooling period in Europe’s hitherto overheated climate debate. It may lead eventually to the complete abandonment of the unilateral climate agenda that has shaped Europe’s green philosophy for nearly 20 years. More …

Welcome to Coombsville

After reading Patrick McCauley’s account of his experiences at Wadeye (Quadrant Magazine, December 2008) I think it would be appropriate to change the name of that place to “Coombsville” – to be a reminder of the horrors which Coombsian doctrine, so slavishly taken up by both sides of politics in Australia, for so long, has […]
