Ms. Malkin several months back wrote a particularly bent column about immigration... I'm not really inclined to hunt it down.

So you'd like for us to research and verify your allegations...

If you really care about it, you can look it up. My objections are clearly stated in the thread.

However, you can also take an objective look at Ms. Malkin's writing for yourself. I think you'll find that what she says cannot always be taken at face value.

This is a perfect example. Malkin can be reasonably be expected to point to this as an example of how illegal immigration enables terrorism.

OK, so Malvo jumps ship. Does this mean that illegal immigration and this terrorist act are somehow related?

Well, no. Not really. Other thant the fact that Malvo was an illegal, it has nothing to do with the sniper shootings.

After all, the terrorist angle came about because Malvo fell into cahoots with his stepdad -- an American, born and bred. They went on a crime spree, for which the original idea, not to mention the money and expertise, almost certainly came from a domestic source -- John Mohammed.

So Malkin's likely conclusion does not hold water. If she ties Malvo's illegal status to terrorism, it's because she's bent the facts in order to do so.

Bottom line: Michelle Malkin is not a particularly honest columnist, which is why I no longer take her seriously.
