Cal Thomas

The most widely syndicated political columnist in America, Cal Thomas has been capturing America, one reader at a time, for more than 20 years, and he’ll certainly provoke discussion and debate on your editorial pages.

At a time when America’s political scene couldn’t be more compelling, or fast changing, Thomas takes an unwavering stand for traditional conservative values and American “can-do spirit” that transcends either party.

A wide-ranging social commentator rather than a “beltway insider,” Thomas is attuned to mainstream America. And he’ll take on any topic, from the decline of the American family to the growing threat of terrorism.

It's complicated

A longtime conservative friend sent me an email after reading something positive I had written about Newt Gingrich: "Whoever votes or supports Newt for president is out of their mind." It wouldn't be the first time I've been called crazy.
