Truthiness in the wild

[David Bowie]

A sighting of "truthiness" (though with scare quotes) in the wild in a
question asked by a non-reporter (and i think that's an important
point--most of the sightings of "truthiness" i've seen so far have been
by professional writers) on one of washingtonpost.com's chat
sessions--see
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/discussion/2006/01/27/DI2006012700849.html?referrer=email&referrer=email&referrer=email

The question where it appears is just short of halfway through the chat.

     house, there is too little; some must be purchased. If there is
     chocolate in the house, there is too much; it must be consumed.
