CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 23, 2018
THE CONVICTION OF PAUL MANAFORT AND THE GUILTY PLEAS OF MICHAEL COHEN ARE RED MEAT TO THE MAJOR MEDIA AND THE OTHER LEFTISTS WHO CONTINUE TO TRY TO UNDO THE RESULTS OF THE 2016 ELECTION.
THE SPECIAL COUNSEL WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO INVESTIGATE RUSSIAN COLLUSION STILL HAS NOTHING ON THAT ISSUE AND SO HAS WANDERED INTO OTHER TERRITORY.
WHAT ANGERS SO MANY IS THE DOUBLE STANDARD. HILLARY CLINTON WAS NEVER CHARGED FOR MISHANDLING EMAILS THAT CONTAINED CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. NOTHING WAS DONE ABOUT HER ATTEMPTS TO SILENCE AND DISCREDIT WOMEN WHO ACCUSED HER HUSBAND OF SEXUAL IMPROPRIETIES, INCLUDING RAPE.
REMEMBER SENATOR JOHN EDWARDS WHO HAD AN AFFAIR AND A CHILD WITH A WOMAN NAMED REILLIE HUNTER WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DYING OF CANCER? EDWARDS WAS INDICTED AND TRIED ON CHARGES OF USING NEARLY $1 MILLION IN SO-CALLED “GIFTS” FROM TWO WEALTHY SUPPORTERS TO BUY-OFF HUNTER AND PRESENT AN AIDE AS HIS DAUGHTER’S FATHER. A JURY ACQUITTED HIM. SEE WHAT I MEAN BY A DOUBLE STANDARD?
THE MEDIA AND THE LEFT STARTED WITH A GOAL OF IMPEACHING PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THEIR COVERAGE AND ACTIONS ARE AIMED AT ACHIEVING THAT GOAL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
