I've been asked for my thoughts/opinions regarding the Pete Hegseth address in Quantico last week. I was reluctant to share for the better part of the last few days as I am with the Tim Kennedy Stolen Valor discussion. But here I am, not speaking about it politically and almost as a bit of a continuation from last weeks struggle bus regarding the world & our country's state of the human element.
'Holding the Middle Ground' is much different than 'Fence Sitting'. I use holding vs occupying or standing in. To hold something insinuates intention. Much the same as fence sitting implies simply waiting to fall on the side with the greatest favor or probability of winning. I suppose we could swap out middle ground for common ground, but I am choosing middle much because I don't believe those in the middle are aware of or invested with anything in common.
Add value, not noise. Just thought I'd poke that out there as well.
