CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 15, 2020
IT WAS A TOUGH CHOICE LAST NIGHT. SHOULD I WATCH THE LAST DEBATE AMONG DEMOCRAT CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT BEFORE THE IOWA CAUCUSES, OR THE “JEOPARDY” GREATEST OF ALL TIME TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS?
GUESS WHICH ONE I CHOSE? RIGHT YOU ARE. IT WAS “JEOPARDY,” WHERE REAL KNOWLEDGE IS REWARDED.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO WATCH A DEBATE AMONG DEMOCRATS TO KNOW WHAT THEY WILL SAY. THEY PROMOTE WHAT GOVERNMENT CAN DO FOR YOU, NOT WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOURSELF. IT’S A SOPHISTICATED FORM OF BRIBERY: VOTE FOR ME AND I’LL GIVE YOU MORE STUFF. NEVER MIND THE DEBT. NEVER MIND YOUR RESPONSIBILITY IN MAKING A LIFE FOR YOURSELF. GOVERNMENT REPLACES GOD IN THEIR MINDS, IF THEY BELIEVED IN GOD, WHICH IT APPEARS MOST DON’T; OR THEY DON’T LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS ON THINGS THAT MATTER.
THERE WAS THE PREDICTABLE CRITICISM OF PRESIDENT TRUMP, WHO HAS DONE MORE TO TURN THIS COUNTRY AROUND IN THREE YEARS THAN ANY REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT IN RECENT MEMORY.
THEY HATE HIM FOR THAT. POLITICIANS AREN’T SUPPOSED TO CHANGE THINGS FOR THE BETTER. THE LEFT PREFERS REVOLUTION TO RESOLUTION. IF A PROBLEM WERE FIXED THEY WOULDN’T HAVE THE ISSUE TO RUN ON. CAN’T WAIT FOR TONIGHT’S “JEOPARDY.” I’M CAL THOMAS.
