CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY SEPTEMBER 18, 2026
THIS IS JUST MY THEORY, BUT I THINK ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS RAPIDLY GAINING ATTENTION BECAUSE WE HAVE LOST SO MUCH NATURAL INTELLIGENCE. WE HAVE ALSO LOST WISDOM BECAUSE WE HAVE FORGOTTEN WHERE IT IS LOCATED.
HOW MANY YOUNG PEOPLE READ BOOKS? THEY APPEAR TO SPEND MOST OF THEIR TIME ON LINE. MANY CAN’T SPEAK PROPER ENGLIGH. THEIR SENTENCES ARE FULL OF “LIKE,” AND “YOU KNOW.”
CONSIDER THE RISE OF SOCIALISM. AMERICANS HAVE NEVER HAD TO LIVE UNDER SOCIALISM AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT COSTS IN FREEDOM, AVAILABILITY OF FOOD AND SO MUCH ELSE WE TAKE FOR GRANTED.
THAT THE NOVEMBER MIDTERM ELECTIONS ARE CLOSE IN SO MANY STATES TESTIFIES TO THE IGNORANCE OF LOW INFORMATION VOTERS. WHY IS JAMES TALARICO SO CLOSE IN THE TEXAS SENATE RACE WHEN HE CAN QUICKLY NAME HIS FAVORITE DRAG QUEEN AND HAS SAID THINGS ABOUT GOD AND SCRIPTURE THAT ARE UNTRUE? FOR THAT MATTER WHY DID REPUBLICAN VOTERS PICK KEN PAXTON FOR SENATE. PAXTON IS AN ADULTERER AND TAX CHEAT WHO WAS IMPEACHED, BUT NOT CONVICTED BY HIS OWN PARTY IN THE STATE LEGISLATURE.
REPUBLICANS AREN’T ARGUING WHY THEIR POSITIONS ARE BEST. IT’S MOSTLY ABOUT PERSONALITIES. MAYBE THAT’S WHY WE NEED AI, BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE DON’T KNOW VERY MUCH. I’M CAL THOMAS.
