CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 28, 2020          THE TWO POLITICAL CONVENTIONS – SUCH AS THEY WERE – ARE OVER. BOTH PARTIES NOMINATED THEIR CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT. SPEAKERS AT EACH PARTY’S VIRTUAL CONVENTION  SLAMMED THE OTHER PARTY AND ITS LEADERS AS UNABLE TO LEAD AMERICA. NOTHING NEW THERE. THEY’VE BEEN DOING IT FOR…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 27, 2020          THERE HAVE BEEN MANY GOOD SPEAKERS AT THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION, BUT ONE OF MY FAVORITES WAS NICK SANDMANN. THE 18-YEAR-OLD CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT CAME TO WASHINGTON TO EXERCISE HIS FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS IN A PRO-LIFE MARCH. HE WAS CONFRONTED BY A PROFESSIONAL DEMONSTRATOR WHO CURSED AT HIM…

 CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 26, 2020          THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THIS WEEK’S REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION AND THE ONE BY DEMOCRATS COULD NOT BE MORE STARK. LAST WEEK’S DNC PRE-RECORDED CONVENTION RESEMBLED A FUNERAL. IT WAS ABOUT AN AMERICA I DON’T KNOW. PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING, THE RICH ARE EVIL AND MUST PAY EVEN MORE TAXES. IT…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 25, 2020          AND NOW IT’S THE REPUBLICANS’ TURN. THEIR VIRTUAL CONVENTION OPENED LAST NIGHT AND UNLIKE THE DEMOCRATS CONVENTION – AND THERE IS SO MUCH THAT IS UNLIKE THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION —  MANY OF THE GOP EVENTS WILL BE LIVE. THAT CONVEYS A CERTAIN SPONTANEITY THAT SHOULD WORK TO THEIR…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 24, 2020          THE DEMOCRAT VIRTUAL CONVENTION IS OVER AND TONIGHT REPUBLICANS GET THEIR TURN. IT’S BOUND TO BE A STARK CONTRAST FROM LAST WEEK’S DAILY DOSE OF GLOOM AND DOOM BY ONE DEMOCRAT AFTER ANOTHER. I DIDN’T RECOGNIZE THE COUNTRY I LIVE IN.          ABOUT JOE BIDEN’S SOMEWHAT OPTIMISTIC ACCEPTANCE…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTATRY AUGUST 21, 2020          A FRIEND WROTE ME TO DECRY ALL THE ANGER SHE SEES FROM PEOPLE CHECKING INTO HER VACATION HOTEL. PEOPLE COMING TO SPEND SOME TIME AWAY FROM HOME ARE ANGRY. YOU WOULD THINK IT MIGHT BE THE OPPOSITE.          IN A RECENT INTERVIEW ABOUT MY LATEST BOOK “AMERICA’S EXPIRATION…

CAL THOMAS COMENTARY AUGUST 20, 2020          IN DESCRIBING WHERE THE MODERN DEMOCRAT PARTY WANTS TO TAKE AMERICA, THE WASHINGTON POST, OF ALL PUBLICATIONS (I WON’T EVEN CALL IT A NEWSPAPER ANYMORE) – REFERRED TO IT AS A “FAR-LEFT” AGENDA. OCCASIONALLY THE POST WILL REFER TO SOMEONE AS A LIBERAL, BUT ONLY IN A GOOD…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 18, 2020          THERE ISN’T MUCH THAT WOULD CAUSE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO RETURN TO WASHINGTON FROM THEIR LATEST “VACATION,” BUT SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI IS CALLING THEM BACK TO SLAM THE POST OFFICE.          DEMOCRATS CLAIM PRESIDENT TRUMP WANTS TO SUPPRESS THE NOVEMBER 3 VOTE. THE PRESIDENT HAS SAID THE POST…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 17, 2020          HERE’S AN UPDATE FROM THE SECULAR-PROGRESSIVE LEFT. BLACK LIVES MATTER DEMONSTRATORS IN SEATTLE ARE DEMANDING THAT WHITE HOME OWNERS GIVE UP THEIR HOMES, OR THEY SAY THEY’RE “COMING FOR IT” ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. NO WONDER GUN SALES HAVE SPIKED.          THEY CLAIM IT’S PART OF REPARATIONS –…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 14, 2020          DON’T YOU LOVE THE WAY THE MEDIA LABEL AND CHARACTERIZE POLITICIANS THEY LIKE AND WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT THOSE THEY DON’T? TAKE KAMALA HARRIS. JOE BIDEN’S  RUNNING MATE IS DESCRIBED AS AFRICAN-AMERICAN BY THE MEDIA. HER FATHER IS JAMAICAN AND HER MOTHER IS FROM INDIA. HOW DOES THAT…
