CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 1, 2021
CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS, FRUSTRATED BY THEIR INABILITY TO FORCE REPUBLICANS TO GO
ALONG WITH THEIR MASSIVE SPENDING BILLS AND THREATENED BY SO-CALLED PROGRESSIVES WHO
WANT MORE, HAVE PASSED ONE OF THOSE CONTINUING RESOLUTIONS TO KEEP CURRENT SPENDING
GOING UNTIL DECEMBER WHEN IT WILL START AGAIN.
THIS IS TYPICAL WASHINGTON DYSFUNCTION: CUT NO SPENDING, JUST KEEP SPENDING.
IN HIS WALL STREET JOURNAL COLUMN, DAN HENNINGER WONDERS “WHETHER THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT IS BECOMING A BLACK HOLE, SIPHONING EVERYTHING NEAR IT INTO A DEADLY INERT MASS.
IT IS IN THE INTEREST OF SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI AND HER FELLOW FORK-CARRIER SENATOR CHUCK
SCHUMER TO NARCOTIZE THE PUBLIC AND PRESS WITH ARCANE PROCESS DETAIL. BUT WHAT WE’RE
WITNESSING IS THE CAPITAL OF A GREAT NATION ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSING THE COUNTRY INTO A
STATE OF LONG-TERM MISGOVERNANCE.”
THIS IS ONE OF THE MAJOR POINTS I MAKE IN MY BOOK “AMERICA’S EXPIRATION DATE.” MASSIVE
NATIONAL DEBT HAS BEEN A KEY FACTOR IN THE DECLINE AND COLLAPSE OF NATIONS. WHAT MAKES US
THINK WE ARE IMMUNE FROM A SIMILAR FATE. I HOPE YOU HAVE THE BOOK OR WILL GET IT. IT IS TURNING
OUT TO BE PROPHETIC. I’M CAL THOMAS.
