I have struggled with airing my views and I have basically taken your advice and shut up about it. Today I was in a signing with a Realtor, borrower and an escrow officer and i knew my borrower shared my liberal views and the Realtor i suspected shared my views and so I brought up a few things and I was right. It sort of pissed off the escrow officer I believe but I did not care, it created solidarity with my borrower and my Realtor and we all sort of had fun making the escrow officer squirm.

I am a subscriber to Chad’s LO lab site and have been for almost a year. I will continue to visit your site as long as Chad posts audio clips. It’s the only reason I visit here.
It’s unfortunate that in-your-face political/religious opinions have to appear here. Very unprofessional. Thanks.
Have you any idea what a BLOG IS??? It is a forum to discuss issues! Politic and Religion as expressed through marketing IS A BUSINESS issue. Hence it has a place here on a BLOG about marketing. Perhaps you should have watched the welcome video that WARNS you to stay out if you have delicate sensibilities.
Sorry pal, but our definition of professional differs, and if THAT post ticked you off, you ain’t seen nothin yet. This blog may not be for your taste – and that’s ok – just like TV – change the channel! This one is PG-13, and rough around the edges, just like me!
I try to keep my personal views out of my blog but some times it is impossible. Just like when talking with friends or family politics and religion are definitely off limits. There is too much of a change of alienating readers.
