More quotes by Cal Thomas
As with most things governmental, failure does not mean having to try something else. It means spending more money.

Freedom is a lonely battle, but if the United States doesn't lead it - sometimes imperfectly, but mostly with honor - who will?
Cal Thomas
Victimhood and a “can't do” spirit is what the Democratic Party has mostly been about since the Great Depression.
Cal Thomas
Democrats' desperate attempt to focus on campaign finance reform instead of laws that may have been broken by the Clinton-Gore campaign is like Mike Tyson demanding a reform in boxing regulations after biting off a piece of Evander Holyfield's ear.

Politicians have limited power. They can't impose morality on themselves. How can they impose it on the country?

In a free society, government reflects the soul of its people. If people want change at the top, they will have to live in different ways. Our major social problems are not the cause of our decadence. They are a reflection of it.

No nation can survive without passing its heritage, language and, yes, faith to the next generation. A country must be built on something substantial and if the cultural elitists think it can be built on 'diversity,' that is a foundation of shifting sand.

The brutality of communism was quickly swept under history's rug, in large part because so many on the left had embraced it as the solution to humankind's problems.
Cal Thomas
No matter how good a public school teacher, he or she will always be required to teach the state's values and the state's perspective on subjects from sex to history and biology.

Radical Islamists are serious about killing in pursuit of their extreme objectives. Releasing their soldiers can only embolden them to take more Americans hostage. The deal for Sgt. Bergdahl may well turn out to have been a bargain with the devil.
Cal Thomas
In business, poor performance leads to bankruptcy or, at a minimum, a restructuring of the company. In American education, failure entitles the bankrupt system to even more taxpayer dollars.
Cal Thomas
America's most dangerous diseases have developed an immunity to politics. We suffer not from a failure of political organization or power, but a failure of love.
Cal Thomas
Once a federal law or policy is in place it is more difficult to kill than a vampire.
Cal Thomas
If we want to produce people who share the values of a democratic culture, they must be taught those values and not be left to acquire them by chance.
Cal Thomas
Not to remember 9/11, is to forget what brought it about.
Cal Thomas
But prosperity without a soul is like a corpse whose heart has stopped beating. There is no life, only consumption.
