CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 26, 2026
DELTA AIRLINES IS ONTO SOMETHING. IT HAS SAID IT WILL NOT ALLLOW MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO SKIP THE LINE AT AIRPORTS AND BE ALLOWED TO BOARD FIRST UNTIL CONGRESS PAYS TSA AGENTS. THAT ALSO GOES FOR CONGRESSIONAL STAFF.
TOO BAD SOMEONE CAN’T CUT CONGRESSIONAL PAY UNTIL THEY ACT IN THE INTEREST OF THE PUBLIC, WHO THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT. THEY REPRESENT ONLY THEMSELVES AND FOCUS MORE AND MORE ON THEIR OWN CAREERS AND RE-ELECTION PROSPECTS. AND THE DEBT GROWS. SO DOES THE CYNICISM.
WHO IS REALLY TO BLAME FOR OUR INCREASINGLY DYSFUNCTIONAL GOVERNMENT? THESE CHARACTERS SPEND MORE TIME ON TV DENOUNCING THE OPPOSITION PARTY THAN FINDING SOLUTIONS TO OUR MOST IMPORTANT CHALLENGES.
ULTIMATELY, IT’S THE FAULT OF THE VOTERS, ESPECIALLY LOW-INFORMATION VOTERS, MANY OF WHOM KNOW LITTLE OR NOTHING ABOUT ISSUES, AND RESPOND TO OUTRAGEOUS POLITICAL ADS.
KUDOS TO DELTA AIRLINES, WHOSE MOTTO USED TO BE “DELTA IS READY WHEN YOU ARE.” NOW WITH MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND STAFF FORCED TO WAIT IN LONG LINES LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, THEY’LL GET THE MESSAGE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
