CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MAY 13, 2024
I’VE BEEN THINKING LATELY ABOUT GOOD CHARACTER. GOOD CHARACTER DOESN’T SEEM TO BE A REQUIREMENT THESE DAYS IN OUR POLITICAL LEADERSHIP. WE ARE CONTENT TO SETTLE FOR LESS, LIKE A WOMAN WHO SETTLES FOR LESS IN A MAN BECAUSE SHE DOESN’T THINK SHE WILL EVER GET MARRIED. LISTEN TO DR. LAURA ON SIRIUS TRIUMPH CHANNEL TO HEAR SOME OF THEM.
GOOD CHARACTER IS THE FOUNDATION NOT ONLY OF A LIFE, BUT OF ONE’S THINKING. A PERSON OF GOOD CHARACTER IS AN EXAMPLE FOR OTHERS TO FOLLOW. A PERSON OF BAD CHARACTER ALSO ATTRACTS FOLLOWERS, BUT THE WRONG KIND.
THE LATE EVANGELIST BILLY GRAHAM SAID: “WHEN WEALTH IS LOST, NOTHING IS LOST; WHEN HEALTH IS LOST, SOMETHING IS LOST; WHEN CHARACTER IS LOST, ALL IS LOST.” IT APPEARS NOT SO MUCH TODAY. LOOK AT SOME OF OUR POLITICAL LEADERSHIP — FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, TO A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT, TO VARIOUS FAMILY MEMBERS OF POLITICIANS, TO CERTAIN MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, GOOD CHARACTER SEEMS IN SHORT SUPPLY. WHY DO WE ELECT THEM AND DOES THAT SAY MORE ABOUT US AND WHAT WE SETTLE FOR THEN ABOUT THEM. LEADERSHIP REFLECTS WHO WE FOLLOW. DRAW YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS ABOUT THAT. I’M CAL THOMAS.
