This is sad that Sen. Cruz has health care paid by all of us would stop the uninsured from getting help. What a shame on him he does not have the backing of the GOP in the Senate

You must know that this is called GREED, not caring about the poor, and working people?...

they get their ability to stay rich, and above the law? from who???

SOLUTIONS ...

cut all war spending and declare PEACE! shut down all the military bases around the world, we are not the policeman of the world...we have no right to tell other countries what to do with WMD, the US bombed millions in Japan, and hirosima for our tests...they are still suffering! and DRONES KILL WOMEN AND CHILDREN EVERDAY, INCLUDING THE INNOCENT people, all the poor countries we gave money (aid for peace? or food, or bases) using our tax dollars! The US has lost all morale value, and any spiritual growth.

We need to return to the PEACE CORPS and start feeding the hungry, and clean up our act...start with GREEN RENEWABLE CLEAN SUSTAINABLE ENERGY NOW....do you know that 300 tons of nuclear waste are spilling into the ocean every day!!! this is WMD!!!! planetary exstintion...we need to be infored with the truth!!! no more lies by corrupt congress....go green, recycle Congress!!

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 The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
Mike Farrell, actor, political activist, and author of Just Call Me Mike and Of Mule and Man
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
Van Jones, cofounder of RebuildTheDream.com and author of The Green Collar Economy
