Why Chavez Chose Social Safety Net Over Skyscrapers

The Good, The Bad, and the Very, Very Cacidrosisly Ugly

The Good! Paul Krugman. The New York Times columnist smashed the myth of Social Security insolvency during his Sunday appearance on ABC's This Week. When Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson urged his fellow panelists to take a hard look at the "facts" of government spending - Krugman interrupted to point out the Senator's ...well... less than accurate understanding of reality. Senator Johnson and his corporate backed buddies have everyone worried about quoute - on - quote entitlement spending - but here's the truth - Social Security is as well-funded a program as any. Now that most of the mainstream media has succumbed to the right's Chicken Little rhetoric - it's reassuring to see a pundit of Krugman's influence call this obession with Social Security's downfall what it is - a big fat lie.

Crazy Alert - Strongest Hoo-Hoo Ever!

Thom Hartmann's crazy alert

Addiction's Shrinking Gender Gap

If Fukushima happened here...

It's been two years since a devestating tsunami hit Japan - and crippled the Daichii nuclear power plant in Fukushima.

Privatize Schools Teach Hippies are Dirty & Celebrate the KKK

Randi Weingarten, American Federation of Teachers, joins Thom Hartmann. Louisiana's voucher program supports schools that teach creationism and celebrate the KKK. Satan worshipping hippies - heroic Klansmen - and - real - live dragons! No - these aren't figments of Glenn Beck's delusional mind. They're true facts. Well - at least according to the new series of textbooks used in schools funded by Louisiana's voucher program.

Former Iran Prez says, "Argo is wrong"

Robert Parry, Consortium News, "America's Stolen Narrative" joins Thom Hartmann. Argo wowed audiences with its thrilling action scenes and compelling story. But does it distort history and rehash the lies that won Reagan the Presidency?

If Women Were in Charge...

Today is International Women's Day, a day that was originally created to celebrate women's economic, political and social achievements. And, since the very first International Women's Day was celebrated in 1910, women have made tremendous strides when it comes to political, economic, and social power. Just ask the all-female crew that was on an Air France flight from Paris to Washington today on an Airbus 380, the world's largest commercial airplane. Just decades ago, the thought of an all-female crew piloting a transatlantic flight on the world's biggest airplane would have been inconceivable. Unfortunately, while women have made great strides across the globe and right here in the United States, there is still a tremendous amount of work to be done Women have come a long way since the first International Women's Day in 1910, a time when they couldn't even vote in the United States and, in some states, were still legally the property of their husbands. But now is not the time to take a "good enough" approach when it comes to female empowerment in our country. Women can help save our culture, our country and even our planet. It's time for men to get out of the way. For the good of all of us.
