It doesn't much matter what they say as long as they continue to split their party. Less than far right conservatives may decide to sit out the midterms out of frustration with the GOP crazies. Not all conservatives are against new energy sources or working on climate change. Not all conservatives are for big ag farming running their family farms out of business, or big corporate running their small businesses out of town. Many of the Christian right are not for GMO's or mystery meat. There are small points where progressives can make in-roads.

It could just be the ticket Democrats need to take back the House and/or shore up the senate. But alas, it may be truly a ruse, made up to mess with the heads of liberals. Frankly I don't see how Tea Baggers could get more out of touch with reality than they already are, unless there's another major crash that effects their livelyhoods more directly. Just as some democrats can be lead like sheep by main stream media, so many republicans follow like sheep every year to vote their party line, no matter how much nutty nonsense they spew forth. So, liberals still need to hit the ground running to get around all the voter suppression coming down the pike before the midterms.

Thom's Blog Is On the Move

Hello All

Thom's blog in this space and moving to a new home.

Please follow us across to hartmannreport.com - this will be the only place going forward to read Thom's blog posts and articles.

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."
David C. Korten, author of The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community and When Corporations Rule the World and board chair of YES! magazine
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
Paul Hawken, coauthor of Natural Capitalism and author of The Ecology of Commerce
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
