You should really consider getting into politics. I suspect you could make a lot more money there than as a financial adviser. You could model your campaign after those of Bill Clinton. You know? Believe in nothing and never espouse a strong conviction about anything.I'm just a financial advisor, and I have to carefully examine all facets of a situation before I make a move.Oh damn...stop. I am laughing too hard. Please stop.It's terribly simplistic.Is this statement considered partisan in your mind?I realize that's how partisans think. "If you're not this, you must be that".and that IS riding the fence.
Simple, binary, safe.
No problem.

"Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice... and moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue."
What, in your mind, is "extremism", specifically?
What, in your mind, is "liberty", specifically?
What, in your mind, is "moderation", specifically?
What, in your mind, is "justice", specifically?
My mind doesn't work in bumper sticker slogans. Life is more complicated than that.

You really missed your calling. You should be a liberal politician.
I don't have the luxury of just spitting out shallow slogans like some drunk guy at a bar saying "If I were King, I'd....."
I know that there are always multiple sides to a ry, and I'm humble enough to realize I don't know it all. So I have to carefully and patiently collect, digest, and analyze information before drawing a conclusion.
I can't just listen to the radio to be told what to think, I have to be responsible.
