CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 5, 2024
IT’S AMUSING, BUT PREDICTABLE, TO WATCH AND READ THE LIBERAL MEDIA’S REACTION TO THE RESIGNATION OF CLAUDINE GAY AS PRESIDENT OF HARVARD.
FIRST, RACISM WAS TO BLAME, ACCORDING TO THE NOTORIOUS AL SHARPTON. WHY ANYONE LISTENS TO HIM IS BEYOND ME.
THEN IT WAS MYSOGINY. WRITERS FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES CLAIM REPUBLICANS ARE TO BE BLAMED. YOU KNOW, THOSE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BAN BOOKS AND “PUT Y’ALL BACK IN CHAINS” AS JOE BIDEN ONCE TOLD A BLACK AUDIENCE.
CONSERVATIVES ARE TO BLAME BECAUSE THEY WANT TO IMPOSE THEIR VIEWS ON CHILDREN. NEVER MIND THAT THE SECULAR PROGRESSIVES AND TRANSGENDER-AFFIRMING LEFT HAVE BEEN IMPOSING THEIR WORLDVIEW FOR YEARS, CAUSING MANY PARENTS TO LEAVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
GAY NOW CLAIMS SHE IMMEDIATELY CREDITED THE MATERIAL SHE PLAGIARIZED WHEN IT WAS MADE KNOWN TO HER. THAT’S NOT TRUE. SHE HAS SHOWN NO REMORSE, ISSUED NO APOLOGY AND SOUGHT TO JUSTIFY WHAT SHE DID. CONTRITION MIGHT HAVE HELPED KEEP HER JOB, BUT FEW SEEM SORRY FOR ANY WRONG THEY COMMIT THESE DAYS. SHE CAN BE COMFORTED BY HER NEARLY ONE MILLION DOLLAR SALARY AND SHE WILL KEEP TEACHING. MAYBE SHE CAN TEACH A COURSE ABOUT THE DANGERS OF PLAGIARIZING. I’M CAL THOMAS.
