Talk:Invasion: How America Still Welcomes Terrorists, Criminals, and Other Foreign Menaces to Our Shores

Untitled
I did not find a mention of the TOC and what you deleted was not a random quote. Where may I ask shall we find a mention of the TOC in wikipedia policy? Going around blanking out stuff can be considered vandalism That fact that you may be an admin does not grant you the right to give misleading statements about Wiki policy and mis-implement others.--CltFn 04:19, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Criticism
The criticism section sounds extremely POV. A fix is necessary.--Kevin W. 17:16, 4 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Agreed, I can't believe there are only positive reviews of this book. I added a POV tag. - Lapinmies 08:54, 10 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks. You are completely right. That section reads more like a back-cover blurb or an advertisement than anything that should appear in an encyclopedia. The current text needs to be either drastically rewritten or deleted entirely. Cheers, CWC (talk) 12:11, 10 February 2007 (UTC)


 * OH MY GOSH! We might've found a book that has no criticism. I'll fix it, you hypersensitive people, you. --SirAndrew1 04:54, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Criticism, yes; critical reviews, no. In this interview, Malkin was asked about the reaction to Invasion and replied:
 * The reaction from most elites has been silence. There have been no reviews in major newspapers, such as the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, and USA Today. Even my former employers—the Seattle Times and L.A. Daily News—have ignored the book.  Other than Cal Thomas, none of the big-name Beltway newspaper pundits wrote about the book.
 * Invasion was one of the most successful conservative books of 2002. So what accounts for the near-blackout among Beltway elites and in the mainstream media?
 * Conservative advocates of illegal alien-friendly policies, like Paul Gigot of the Wall Street Journal and Tamar Jacoby of the Manhattan Institute, presumably are aware of the book but may not want to call attention to it, because they know that doing so will generate buzz and boost sales. In addition, I believe that many of my opponents are uncomfortable addressing national security-based arguments against illegal immigration, and would prefer to trot out well-worn pre-9/11 arguments about the economic and social implications of illegal immigration.
 * Left-leaning advocates of illegal alien-friendly policies seem not to be aware of the book. In October or late September, Angela Kelley of the National Immigration Forum told a Washington DC radio host she had not heard of Invasion. By that time, the book had already made the New York Times extended bestseller list. I guess it wasn't on her radar screen because it has not been reviewed in any of the big papers; some liberals apparently do not listen to conservative talk radio or watch Fox News or read books published by conservative publishing houses like Regnery.
 * In most cases, I attribute the silence not to willful neglect or ignorance but to lack of interest. Most editors and pundits, including conservative opinion leaders, simply do not care about illegal immigration, even after 9/11. The chasm between the public and elites on this issue is large and has been documented by survey research (see http://www.cis.org/articles/2002/back1402.html).
 * I've put a condensed version of this quote in the article as an explanation of the one-sided reviews and removed the POV tag. I hope I struck a reasonable balance; corrections welcome. Cheers, CWC 10:54, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

should we do a book review now?
just wondering.

I don't think either belongs in an encyclopedia article about a book. (All this info is easily available at Amazon.com.) Does anyone disagree? CWC 05:24, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
