Indeed.. And well said, Cal. Veteran columnist Cal Thomas is responsible for that outstanding, and timely, piece. He’s exactly right! Politics really is a contact sport. And, Democrats historically are much better at it than Republicans because they will do whatever it takes to win; even cheat, lie, and worse. Republicans tend to “take the higher road,” and then lose…like John McCain, Bob Dole, George H.W. Bush (second term), and on and on. Politics is about ideas, and battling it out in those arena of ideas. And, the GOP for too long has always tried to take that “higher road” so as not to offend, or worse, to be called “racist, sexist,” and so on. I had a boss at Ft. Carson, CO once who said, “it isn’t about winning or losing. It’s about winning.” Exactly.. While we should never lie, cheat or do anything illegal or amoral, we shouldn’t just lay down on the railroad tracks and get run over like a bunch of suckers. Trump is the first GOP President I can remember who gets that, and actually fights back. He’s the honey badger that doesn’t care…and it’s refreshing to see. Thanks Cal! 🙂

Opinion/Analysis: After every other Democratic candidate dropped out, Obama finally endorses Biden
Trump, all up til yesterday, kept asking the press at his daily briefings.. “Why hasn’t Obama endorsed Biden yet?” It has been awfully strange how Obama was SO silent during the majority of the primary season and didn’t endorse his former VP til just yesterday…and then by only a streaming video online. Anyway, thanks to Cal Thomas for laying out the history. For more, click on the text above.

Cal Thomas: ‘White poverty and me’ – Incentive, not skin color, determines station in life
Opinion: The failure of multiculturalism – National leaders are closing their eyes to Islam’s refusal to assimilate
Opinion: No more green and white
Veteran columnist, and author, Cal Thomas absolutely nails it here with this great op/ed on the destructive nature of political correctness in our public schools today. PC has become SO ridiculous.. Parents need to do their part and fight back and against the liberal educational establishment, or pull their kids out as Cal suggests here, and put them in private, Catholic, or charter schools…or just home school their kids. That’s probably the best option anymore..
Opinion: ISIS threat: Mr. Obama, blaming others for failure is not a strategy
Cal Thomas tells Obama to man up
Excellent! Cal is spot on!
