PowerLine issues a challenge to liberal legislator Mindy Greiling

PowerLine's Scott Johnson has issued challenge to Mindy Greiling, the liberal legislator who called for the Star Tribune to fire a conservative columnist.
.
Background: Greiling took issue with two columns conservative Star Tribune columnist Katherine Kersten wrote about about a Muslim school. In response, Greiling wrote a letter to the Minnesota Star Tribube demanding that Kersten be fired.
.
You can read Kersten's two columns addressing the TIZA Muslim school here and here. Greiling's letter demanding Kersten be fired is here.
.
Scott Johnson demonstrated here that the facts of Katherine Kersten's columns are not in dispute.
.
Scott Johnson has emailed Greiling with this challenge:
Dear Rep. Greiling: I write for the Power Line Web site (powerlineblog.com). I read your letter to the editor of the Star Tribune calling for Katherine Kersten's resignation based on what you call her "gross distortion of facts" regarding TIZA. I have carefully read her columns and related material as well as interviewed Morgan Brown of the Department of Education. I find your letter itself a gross abuse of power and a reckless assault on the truth. In this post I set forth the facts and call for your resignation.

Please let me know what facts you dispute and on what ground. I will post your response in its entirety on our site.
Will Greiling rise to the challenge or scurry back to her hen house?
