CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 21, 2021
THERE AREN’T MANY THINGS TO CELEBRATE THESE DAYS, BUT SUNDAY’S ANNOUNCEMENT BY
SENATOR JOE MANCHIN, THE WEST VIRGINIA DEMOCRAT, THAT HE WON’T VOTE FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN’S
MASSIVE SOCIAL SPENDING BILL IS WORTHY OF PRAISE.
MANCHIN SAID ON FOX HE HAS TRIED EVERY WHICH WAY TO JUSTIFY VOTING FOR THE BLOATED
MEASURE, BUT DOASN’T WANT TO ADD TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO THE DEBT AND APPARENTLY DOESN’T
BELIEVE THE ADMINISTRATION’S CLAIM IT WON’T COST TAXPAYERS ANYTHING.
MANCHIN SAID: “IF I CAN’T GO HOME AND EXPLAIN TO THE PEOPLE OF WEST VIRGINIA, I CAN’T
VOTE FOR IT.”
THE PROGRESSIVES, THAT IS THE FAR LEFT, IMMEDIATELY DENOUNCED MANCHIN. ALEXANDRIA
OCASIO-CORTEZ, WHO SPENDS MOST OF HER TIME BEFORE CAMERAS, CLAIMED MANCHIN’S DECISION
PUTS, “OUR DEMOCRACY ON THE LINE.” IT ALMOST DID.
NO NATION CAN SPEND ITSELF INTO OBLIVION, OR IT WILL WIND UP OBLITERATED. MASSIVE
NATIONAL DEBT HAS BEEN A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO THE DECLINE OF OTHER GREAT NATIONS. IT’S
WHY I WROTE MY BOOK “AMERICA’S EXPIRATION DATE.” GET IT AND SEE WHAT THE LEFT IS DOING TO OUR
COUNTRY. MEANWHILE, KUDOS TO JOE MANCIN, WHO HAS DEMONSTRATED CONVICTION IN
WASHINGTON, A RARITY. I’M CAL THOMAS.
