Tentative Conservative Hero Award

I recently asked if there were no Republican heroes left in America, and though still open-minded, I remain unconvinced that some of our better elected officials on the Right (like Senator Richard Lugar) have quite earned any medals yet. Nonetheless, I am bestowing a tentative conservative hero award this evening. It goes to Andrew Sullivan, who blogs today:

I'm guilty as well. I was so intent on winning this war and so keen to see the administration succeed against our enemy that I gave them too many benefits of the doubt.

I reserve the right to revoke this award the next time Andrew says one of the incredibly stupid things I can't believe a thinking person is capable of saying.
