When Cal Thomas Calls for Another Revolution, Is That Sedition?

Cal Thomas Spending obscenities

That Republicans are outspending the most reckless 1980s Democrat (and 1960s Great Society Democrats and 1940s FDR Democrats) is the sorriest spectacle of all.

The Senate vote increased the debt ceiling for the fourth time in five years. The statutory debt limit has now risen by more than $3 trillion since President Bush took office. That any Republican majority could preside over such fiscally irresponsible spending ought to be grounds for revoking their party membership.

This is mostly about politics, not terrorism. …

Coolidge left the presidency with a surplus. So did Bill Clinton. That a Republican Congress and administration are engaging in such promiscuous spending is obscene. If voting in Democrats —who in the past engaged in deficit spending — punishes Republicans, little will change. What to do?

Maybe it’s time for a strong third party, or failing that, another revolution.
