CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 12, 2021
THE ANNOUNCED RESIGNATION OF NEW YORK GOVERNOR ANDREW CUOMO IS A LESSON ON SEVERAL LEVELS.
ONE IS THAT PRIDE GOES BEFORE A FALL. IT IS SATAN’S FAVORITE SIN. EVEN IN HIS RESIGNATION
STATEMENT AND HIS LAWYER’S DEMEANING OF THE 11 WOMEN WHO ACCUSED CUOMO OF GROPING AND
OTHER INAPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR, THERE WAS A DENIAL OF WHAT HE IS ALLEGED TO HAVE DONE. CUOMO
SAID HIS BEHAVIOR WAS CONSISTENT WITH HIS ITALIAN BACKGROUND AND SUGGESTED THE LINES HAVE
CHANGED SINCE HE WAS YOUNG.
NO THEY HAVEN’T. HE SIGNED LEGISLATION PROHIBITING SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN THE WORKPLACE.
AND SINCE WHEN HAS IT BEEN OK TO BEHAVE LIKE HE DID WITH WOMEN?
CHUCK TODD OF NBC CLAIMED THAT CUOMO MIGHT MAKE A COMEBACK. ARE STANDARDS REALLY
THAT LOW? UNFORTUNATELY THEY ARE. REMEMBER BILL CLINTON SURIVIVED A SEX SCANDAL – SEVERAL
REALLY – BECAUSE PEOPLE DON’T EXPECT MUCH FROM POLICITIANS. YET WE KEEP ELECTING THE SAME
ONES EXPECTING DIFFERENT OUTCOMES, OR NOT CARING AS LONG AS WE GET MONEY FROM
GOVERNMENT.
SOME PEOPLE NEVER LEARN, DESPITE BIBLICAL WARNINGS AND RECENT HISTORY. I’M CAL THOMAS.
