Two politicians from opposite sides of the aisle but nevertheless good and lifelong friends went out one day for a hot air balloon ride.
During the ride the balloon was blown off its course, and the two sailed for quite some time out over the hinterlands, with nary a soul to be seen.
Finally they saw a man down walking out along the road, and they called down to him "where are we?"
And the man looked up at them and replied "you're in a balloon."
The two agreed it was the perfect political answer.
It was inarguably true, and it provided no meaningful information whatsoever.
