CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY FEBRUARY 9, 2023
PEOPLE CAN SENSE THE STATE OF THE UNION ISN’T AS GOOD AS PRESIDENT BIDEN CLAIMS IT IS.
THE PRESIDENT’S SPEECH LAST NIGHT WAS TYPICAL DEMOCRAT BOILERPLATE. GOVERNMENT IS KING AND WE ARE MERELY VASSELS. WE ARE INCAPABLE OF DOING MUCH ON OUR OWN AND IF WE SUCCEED WE WILL BE TAXED AND REGULATED TO DEATH. ONLY GOVERNMENT CAN SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS. YOU HAVE NO ROLE, EXCEPT TO KEEP VOTING FOR THESE PEOPLE. AND YET IF GOVERNMENT COULD SOLVE PROBLEMS WOULD IT NOT HAVE DONE SO BY NOW? MONEY ISN’T THE ANSWER. FREEDOM IS THE ANSWER.
THAT’S WHAT ARKANSAS REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR SARAH HUCKABEE SANDERS WAS GETTING AT IN HER REBUTTAL.
“GOVERNMENT,” SHE SAID, “EXISTS NOT TO RULE THE PEOPLE, BUT TO SERVE THE PEOPLE.”
“I’M FOR FREEDOM,” SHE SAID. BIDEN IS FOR GOVERNMENT CONTROL. SHE NOTED SHE IS 40 AND BIDEN IS 80 AND IMPLIED IT’S TIME FOR YOUNGER LEADERSHIP. DOES THAT ALSO EXCLUDE FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP?
THEN THERE WAS THIS ZINGER: “I’M THE FIRST WOMEN TO HEAD MY STATE. HE’S THE FIRST MAN TO SURRENDER HIS PRESIDENCY TO A WOKE MOB THAT’S CAN’T EVEN TELL YOU WHAT A WOMAN IS.”
THAT’S THE KIND OF RED MEAT REPUBLICAN VOTERS LIKE TO HEAR. I’M CAL THOMAS.
