From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"With the ever-growing influence of corporate CEOs and their right-wing allies in all aspects of American life, Hartmann’s work is more relevant than ever. Throughout his career, Hartmann has spoken compellingly about the value of people-centered democracy and the challenges that millions of ordinary Americans face today as a result of a dogma dedicated to putting profit above all else. This collection is a rousing call for Americans to work together and put people first again."
From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
I believe in justice, equal justice under the "LAW" if you can find someone to enforce the laws! that would be refreshing!!
In the 2010 election, Barrett and Walker were close, about 1 million votes each.
There were 1 million recall signatures collected (840,000 "valid"), a great start.
Plus people are more informed about ALEC, the John Doe probe is closing in on Walker, the new DNR czar is talking about privitizing public hunting grounds etc. There are even Republican groups formed to tell people NOT to vote for Walker.
And there has been a tremendous mobilization of get out the vote, esp in Milwaukee's poorer districts.
Did Obama’s DNC effectively through Wisconsin under the bus so as not to antagonize Obama’s ALECy’ campaign supporters?
