Cal Thomas: Biden vs. Scott – what needs to be said as we look to the future
Fox News
While Sen. Tim Scott dazzled many in his address to the virtual Republican National Convention last year, his response to Biden's speech has likely vaulted him to the top tier of national leadership.
Even more than Scott's dissection of the president's address was his demeanor. It was positive and upbeat. He didn't see a glass half full, but one overflowing with possibilities, if we pour in the right policies. Biden wasn't Everett and Scott was no Lincoln, but Scott in his brevity, along with his kind and optimistic spirit, delivered the superior speech.Biden droned on about expanding the nanny state and offering to take care of everyone except those evil rich people who he claimed, as Democrats always do, are not paying their "fair share." Neither he, nor any other Democrat, says what they mean by "fair." There was no suggestion that any government program should be eliminated, or spending reduced. Not everyone can be critical of another person without making it sound demeaning. Scott criticized Biden's spending and other proposals without personal attacks (Are you listening Donald Trump?).More Related News
