Unwarranted Pinocchios [Mark Krikorian]
Michael Dobbs, in his "fact checker" column in the Post, gives Huckabee "two Pinocchios" for "significant omissions or exaggerations" because he partially modeled his immigration plan on an NR cover story I did. Now, I'm no big Huckabee fan, but that's simply unfair — the page describing his plan actually footnotes my NR piece, for heaven's sake. Not til the last paragraph of the story does Dobbs get around to mentioning that: "In Huckabee's defense, it must be noted that his Web site credits Krikorian for some of his immigration ideas." So where's the omission? What's the function of think tanks if not to develop and articulate ideas for politicians to adopt?
