Setting us Free?

One of Matawan's most famous citizens in its long history was "Poet of the Revolution" Phillip Freneau. Another famous poet, Khalil Gibran, in his classic work, Sand and Foam, said:

"Let my strength be equal to my enemy, so that Truth may be the victor"

Aristotle's version is just slightly more complicated:

"To say of what is that it is not, or of what is not that it is, is false, while to say of what is that it is, and of what is not that it is not, is true"

A mouthful, to be sure, but hey, he was setting the ground rules for some pretty important stuff, stuff we're still talking about millenia later. The truth is something important, that much everyone can agree on. Many times, truth can seem subjective; at other times, it can seem very clear-cut. What we endeavor to do here, at Truth in Matawan, is cut through the misstaements and mistakes, the hidden agendas, the political claptrap, and especially the blatant lies, and get at what should be important to every tax-paying citizen of Matawan--The Truth.
