It's just like English -

It's logical = Es lógico .

That is logical = Eso es lógico .

It is logical = Es lógico - The subject is omitted in Spanish in this case

That is logical = Eso es lógico - The subject is now a determiner

The differences between languages is that English uses "it" and later in the sentences it clarifies what we mean by "it", while in Spanish you can't use this redundancy:

It is logical to assume... = Es lógico asumir...

You can't say "Eso es lógico asumir..." [Wrong!!]

Entonces, solamente cuando digo "it's" tengo que decir solamente "es" , tengo razon?

Yes, you got it >> "It's" or "It is" is just "Es" /// "That is" is "Eso es". - Goldie_Miel, Feb 8, 2012

So, when we wanna say "it is" it's should be "es es" and one "es" is removed?

It would just be "es" :) - SonrisaDelSol, Feb 8, 2012

I'm a beginner in Spanish, but I think both of them are right and there is no special situation that you should use the first one instead of the second one. I think in Spanish, pronouns can be omitted because they are seen in conjugation of the verb.
