  George Will ended a recent urlLink column (a column that should be read by every neoconservative everywhere) with the following quotation from Alexander Hamilton: I have thought it my duty to exhibit things as they are, not as they ought to be.
He adds it's the core of conservatism. I think it's my duty to add that while truth may indeed be the core of conservatism, our devotion to the truth should be painfully obvious as well.
We don't see truth as a liberal/conservative issue. It would be a grotesquery to assert that just because The Honzman has been known to mislead us, that every other (or indeed any other) conservative would do the same in the same setting. And while we are sure that there are many thoughtful conservatives out there thinking deep and subtle conservative thoughts, we'll continue to hold Fred's feet to the fire until be becomes one. Goodnight everybody everywhere. Goodnight.
