When you feel the need to scream out to the world (or at least your local paper) about how you feel on a very important issue, but just cannot find the right words, I am there for you like the well-read, crafty, intelligent, worldly friend that never lets you down and always comes through for you in a pinch.
You want to write about social issues, I'm on it. You want to wax philosophic on government corruption, I'm with you.
There is no personal belief or moral I wont' surrender for a five-spot.
