“only true conservative”

One of my very favorite expressions here at FR; it means something different for each person who uses it.

Ain't that the truth. And it reminds me of the old No True Scotsman fallacy.

Person A: No Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge.

Person A: Then your uncle is not a true Scotsman.
