prediction for 2015 (a little late)

This year, the phrase “let me be clear” by people other than Pres. Obama will peak in its overuse. Let me be clear – I think it is a great stylistic curlicue, evokes strength, and focuses your attention as a listener. But like a good song played too much on the radio, or a fashion that becomes too easy and popular, i’m starting to get sick of this little piece of verbal seasoning. Enough already.
