Funny how on the report I heard driving home from work, ABC radio news didn't bother to mention which party is doing the blocking....... who needs all that extra detail anyway!

Interesting question! Until that happens, we can't know for sure; but it wouldn't surprise me if Thom's hunch proved accurate. - Aliceinwonderland

It seems to me, Republican leaning people have no interest in what helps ordinary people. Why should a disaster like Sandy keep them awake at night - unless they fell sorry for their "friend" in NJ - Gov, Christie!

From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."

From Screwed:
"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."
David C. Korten, author of The Great Turning and When Corporations Rule the World
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
Tom Hayden, author of The Long Sixties and director, Peace and Justice Resource Center.
