Turning A Tragedy Into A Political Farce
Michelle Malkin is attempting to make political points out of a tragedy that has befallen an immigrant family from Ukraine who have settled in Tacoma, Washington. Their twelve year old daughter was murdered by another immigrant. Malkin has titled her running "coverage" of this tragedy "Bloody consequences of open borders: The kidnapping and murder of Zina Linnik ". This girl was killed because of immigration, so we must close the borders. Would you like to step on the girl's coffin and mug holding a "Close the Borders" placard while you are at it?
The actual story is quite tragic. Terapon Adhahn was an abused child born in Thailand. When he was ten, his mother met a U.S. Special Forces soldier who she married. The family moved to the U.S. soon after. He grew up an army brat, and enlisted himself when he left high school. He spent seven years in the U.S. Army and was married. That was when he was convicted of the incest statutory rape of a sixteen year old relative.
He could have been deported, because apparently even though he would have been qualified due to his marriage, his service in the military, and also because he had a child born in this country, he didn't have citizenship.
Police have arrested him under suspicion of murdering Zina Linnik That is what Michelle Malkin is busy crowing about. The fact that he wasn't deported and he now murdered a young girl is proof that our open border policy is leading to tragedies such as these.
By most reasonable standards, the man is an American. He came over as a child, served seven years in our Army, spending his formative years here. Blaming this on lax immigration is offensive and exploitative.
Of course the same tactic was attempted with the Virginia Tech tragedy. That killer had been in the U.S. legally for 15 of his 23 years. We have a problem with immigration in this country. These stories are not typical stories of illegal immigration, and to use them to attempt to affect policy is an offense to the victims.

Unhinged racist lunatic Michelle Malkin is outraged by a double standard in regards to youth journalism. Let's listen to the crazy lady tell her story.
Here is a tale of two breeds of undercover journalists. One has been celebrated by the national media and journalism organizations. The other has been shunned. One has champions in Congress. The other is facing litigation.
David McSwane, a high-school honors student, posed as a dropout and druggie. “I wanted to do something cool, go undercover and do something unusual,” he told the Rocky Mountain News. McSwane deliberately failed a high-school equivalency test, caught recruiters on tape driving him to purchase a detox kit, and reported that they urged him to obtain a phony diploma. A local CBS station picked up the story — prompting the Army to shut down its recruiting stations nationwide for ethics training.
There have been numerous instances of governmental agents known as military recruiters who have lied to young men and women, often times legal minors, in order to get them into the military. I was lied to by my recruiter before I went in. Thanks by the way, asshole.
Now in desperation to keep their own asses out of Iraq and in their cushy recruiting jobs, recruiters are not just lying to recruits, but forging documents, instructing unqualified people with mental and drug problems, criminal records to represent the United States in uniform with very powerful weapons being handed to them. It is extremely serious. It would not be too surprising to find out that one of the people who have tortured prisoners, or raped civilians, or committed acts like the massacre at Haditha had something in their records that was covered up in order to allow them to serve. This has damaged our reputation around the world, and made us new enemies in the process.
On the other hand, Michelle Malkin has found something just as important that isn't getting the attention it deserves due to the liberal media engaged in a massive cover-up.
No such laurels have been awarded to Lila Rose, however. And none will be forthcoming, I predict. Rose is an 18-year-old student journalist at UCLA. Like McSwane and his breed of undercover reporters, she surreptitiously infiltrated a massive organization that enlists young people. Like McSwane and his breed of undercover reporters, Rose exposed deceptive practices. Rose posed as a 15-year-old seeking the services and advice of her target. Like McSwane and his breed of undercover reporters, she caught her targets urging her to lie and evade the law in order to sign her up.
But Rose’s target was the Left’s beloved Planned Parenthood, not the military. And that has made all the difference in the nonexistent national coverage of her undercover journalism. Rose edits The Advocate, a pro-life campus publication of the student group Live Action. She posed as a minor impregnated by a 23-year-old boyfriend and caught a Planned Parenthood employee advising her to lie about her age to relieve the abortion provider from a legal obligation to report statutory rape to the police.
ONE employee of a private organization did something unethical. She believed that a person might be 15 and had consensual sex with a 23 year old. This is a crime. It should be prosecuted. I don't enjoy men sleeping with teen-age girls, and think they need to be held accountable. It gets gray for me when it is 18 and 15, but all the same, this employee should be fired, and investigated.
Michelle Malkin is trying to equate the two things as being equal. She is quite mental and inane at the same time. There was somebody in my platoon in basic training who wigged out near the end. He went into the bathroom and began to smash his face into the mirror repeatedly. If my drill instructor decided to slip him a few Xanax and ignore it just to keep the body count going, I would have been a bit put out, considering we had a live fire excercise the following day.
In the military we were told that we were ambassadors of the United States when we were overseas. This ridiculous war has generated the need for more bodies and people are cutting corners left and right. The students who exposed recruiters trying to get potentially dangerous individuals into the military have done a great service to our nation.
The pro-life student who pretended to be 15 year old exposed an employee who might have just worried about destroying the young girl's life if she had to testify against her older boyfriend in a rape trial.
Apples to oranges Malkin. Your sense of proportion is bananas.

No, that isn't news. Mrs Internment Camp 2005 has a new article stating that those who protest a deployment for Bush's insane surge effort are basically in league with the terrorists. How does a person get to be as sleazy and immoral? Is it from hanging around with closeted gay porn stars too much?
It seems that there are two populations of people who hate Strykers: moonbats and insurgents."Question their patriotism? You bet I do.
I question your morality Magalong. I also question the wingnut welfare that keeps you in the green. I question the fact that this war is a collosal fuck up by your hero Commander Cuckoo Bananas, and your idea of supporting the troops is sending more of them into the meat grinder of IED explosions created by the insane policies of the grown-ups in Washington.
If I ever become dictator of the US, you will have your own wing in an internment camp so scientists can take psychological tests, full body scans, and map your DNA, so we can abort any babies who might have a predisposition to be like you. We will then crack those baby eggs on a piece of melba toast and enjoy them with a nice Mermosa.

Doctors have diagnosed a blood clot in Vice President Dick Cheney's lower left leg, AP reports.
"Vice President Dick Cheney made a visit to the hospital today after experiencing what his office called some 'discomfort' following his recent trip overseas," the Associated Press reports. "A statement from cheney's office said an ultrasound revealed a deep venous thrombosis (DVT) or 'blood clot' in his left lower leg and added his doctors will treat him with blood thinning medication for several months."
The sixty-six year old vice president "experienced mild calf discomfort," according to the AP, "and in light of his recent prolonged air travel, he visited his doctor's office at the George Washington University Medical Faculty Associates this afternoon."
Dick Cheney's heart really doesn't function that well. The metaphor just speaks for itself. Before Michelle Malkin bitches about my lack of sensitivity for the bringer of

Fox News Channel is testing another pilot on Sunday that will air following its experiment in news satire, "The ½ Hour News Hour." "It's Out There," a half-hour of stories derived from blogs, will get a half-hour test run following Joel Surnow's satirical take on news.
Show, fronted by conservative blogger-columnist Michele Malkin and former Clinton administration operative Kirsten Powers, will take on political and cultural issues enflaming the blogosphere.
Well this blog thinks that Michelle "Intern the Japs" Malkin and Fox news are a perfect fit. Both suck.
