I've been trying to enjoy the political combat this season, as I'm sure many are, but I keep getting distracted by fair and unfair commentators who are balanced and unbalanced, professional and unprofessional pols, elected and unelected and unelectable officials, news speakers and readers...and even many intelligent people!
Why?
Good question, glad you asked!
It's those god damn words that people rely on AS IF THEY HAD ANY MEANING!!
You know what I mean. "At this point in time" is a pretty good example. How about just "now"!?!
But there's a whole new crop of vacuous words that are now being over-worked.
So basically here are my talking points: at the end of the day, I'm not going to flip-flop on anything. I'll just pivot in case I want to surge, and you may vet me if you choose.
