John Calvin Thomas (born 2 December 1942) is an American syndicated columnist, author and radio commentator. During the 1960s and early 1970s he worked as a reporter at NBC News. During a hiatus in his undergraduate education, he joined the U.S. Army, and served at the Armed Forces Radio in New York. His program on CNBC was nominated for a CableACE Award in 1995. His column, which began in 1984, is syndicated by Tribune Content Agency. Thomas joined Fox News as a political contributor in 1997. He was a panelist on Fox News Watch, a Fox News Channel program critiquing media coverage, and until September 2005 hosted After Hours with Cal Thomas on the same network. He also gives a daily radio commentary, syndicated by Salem Radio Network. From 2005 until the end of 2015, Thomas had been a columnist for USA Today, where he wrote articles with friend and political opposite, Bob Beckel, in the style of "point-counterpoint". Thomas has written extensively about political issues and he supports, among other things, many American positions related to Israel. He has written 10 books, including Blinded By Might, that discussed, among other things, the role of the Moral Majority in American politics of the 1980s. Thomas was vice president of the Moral Majority from 1980 to 1985. Cal Thomas asks, Why must we constantly refight the same battles over and over? Why don't we consult the past and use common sense in order to see that what others have discovered can still work today? Our politics and even our spiritual lives too often resemble the film Groundhog Day in which actor Bill Murray wakes up and repeats the same event again and again with the same results. Think present-day Washington. We KNOW what works but politics too often gets in the way. That's why Congress has an approval rating lower than cockroaches and colonoscopies and only slightly above pedophiles. What Works is about solutions, not theories. It's about pressuring political leadership to forget about the next election and start focusing on the needs of the people who work hard, send their tax dollars to Washington, and long to see the country achieve something of value. What Works is so well done. And I think it is actually important . . . People say this or that article, is important, but this book really is. It is excellence on each page, written by the best.
