CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 28, 2024
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL IS ONE OF THE FEW BASTIONS OF REAL JOURNALISM LEFT IN THE COUNTRY. OTHER MEDIA IS DOMINATED BY FORMER WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARIES, FORMER CONGRESSMEN, ACTIVISTS ON BOTH SIDES AND OTHERS WITH NO JOURNALISM BACKGROUND. NOT THE JOURNAL.
YESTERDAY’S COLUMN BY GERARD BAKER IS A CRITIQUE OF THE DECEPTION PRACTICED BY THE DEMOCRAT PARTY. BAKER NOTES THAT DEMOCRATS HAVE FOOLED VOTERS FOR AT LEAST THE LAST 20 YEARS BY PRESENTING THEMSELVES AS MODERATES AND GOVERNING AS FAR LEFTIES.
HE NOTES THE CHANTS “USA, USA” AND THE AMERICAN FLAGS AT THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION IN CHICAGO WERE MEANT TO DECEIVE VOTERS INTO BELIEVING THEIR EYES, NOT THINK WITH THEIR BRAINS.
BAKER CALLS VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE TIM WALZ A “GIANT MIDDLE AMERICA CLICHÉ, PRACTICALLY PULLING THE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYBOOK OUT OF HIS BACK POCKET AND URGING THE NATION TO VOTE FOR HIM SO HE COULD GO OUT THERE ONE MORE TIME AND WIN JUST ONE FOR THE GRIFTER.”
THIS ELECTION IS ABOUT CAPITALISM SURVIVING, OR SOCIALISM REPLACING IT; A WEAK VS. A STRONG FOREIGN POLICY INCLUDING SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL. AND SO MUCH MORE. DON’T BE FOOLED. YOU WON’T BE IF YOU READ THE JOURNAL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
