Bill Kristol and The Washington Post

(It's time to get this show back on the road, I guess."

It seems that Bill Kristol will write a monthly column at The Washington Post. It would be nice if The Post put less effort into taking a "collect 'em all" approach to conservative talking heads and more effort into ... oh, gosh, I don't know ... incorporating actual facts into its reporting.

The supposed reason is to provide a "diverse range of opinions" on the op-ed page. Huh? The Post already has plenty of freedom-hating "conservatives" and freedom-hating "liberals." Only in Washington would a group of opinions all clustered around the bottom of the Nolan chart be deemed "diverse."
