CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 13, 2023
FRESH OFF THE EXPLANATIONS AND EXCUSES THAT THE DISCOVERY OF CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS IN AN OFFICE USED BY PRESIDENT BIDEN WHEN HE WAS VICE PRESIDENT IS NO BIG DEAL AND NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT DONALD TRUMP HAD AT MAR-A-LAGO, COMES A DISCOVERY OF MORE DOCUMENTS.
AT FIRST, THE WHITE HOUSE SAID BIDEN’S LAWYERS FOUND THE CLASSIFIED MATERIAL IN A LOCKED AND SECURE CLOSET AND IMMEDIATELY TURNED THEM OVER TO THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES AS THE LAW REQUIRES.
THIS TIME THERE HAS BEEN NO WORD – NO EXPLANATION OR EXCUSE – FROM THE WHITE HOUSE. IT APPEARS THE SEARCH FOR STILL MORE DOCUMENTS IS CONTINUING.
THIS RAISES THE ISSUE OF HYPOCRISY AND DOUBLE STANDARDS, BUT WHEN ONE IS A DEMOCRAT AND ON THE LEFT THE SAME STANDARDS DON’T ALWAYS APPLY.
RECALL HOW THE MEDIA AND DEMOCATS WERE ALL OVER TRUMP IN THEIR CRITICISM OF HIM. SOME CALLED FOR CRIMINAL CHARGES TO BE BROUGHT AGAINST THE FORMER PRESIDENT. YOU DON’T – AND PROBABLY WON’T – HEAR ANYTHING APPROACHING THAT OVER THE BIDEN CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS. AS RADIO TALK SHOW HOST CHRIS PLANTE IS FOND OF SAYING: “IF THE LEFT DIDN’T HAVE DOUBLE STANDARDS THEY WOULD HAVE NO STANDARDS AT ALL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
