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."
From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
Yes to both options above, and you can add to that the spy program which has also enraged our allies while creating new enemies and has spied on millions of innocent people, both here and abroad for no apparent reason. The only thing I don't understand is why the United Nations has done nothing to stop the horrors this country is inflicting on the world at large? Certainly if the Dominican Republic or Bangladesh were commiting these atrocities, charges would have been filed against these countries and they would have been taken to the Hague. And there is no way I will ever believe that our President had no knowledge of the extent to which these atrocities were being carried out. At the least he should be required to return the Nobel Peace Prize. What is the purpose of the United Nations if it cannot keep ALL its members in line. If it cannot punish a country for obvious brutality being inflicted not only on its own people, but the people of foreign governments, then its existence should definitely be called into question.
Our drone murders have made us the msot hated country in the world and it's "collateral damage" is making more people into "terrorists".
In truth we are the worlds worse terrorist. Who else has the military to kill people at will anywhere in the world and get away with it?
We are above the law, we are a lawless, criminal country and we murder at will anywhere at any time, no one is safe from this terrorist government.
Someday some "terrorist" could send us a little gift of a drone strike or more upon Washington DC and kill some of "our" people.
The government in power is corrupt, unjust and criminal and does not represent we the people, the 95%, only the rich have a voice since now $$$$$$ is speech and corporations are "people".
I would love to see the progressive states seceed from this criminal government, leave them stuck with the red stated full of crazy religious retards. Then those free states would no longer have to be taxed to support those unjust, illegal endless wars and occupations or support the red states and their "conservative", retarded, backward governments.
What "national image" are you referring to? The former image of the US as peacemaker and defender of human rights, or the 21st century version where the dollar bill is king and "human" rights suffer while corporations gorge at the trough?
After eight years of dumbya all O has to offer is more of the same in this area. Who will be surprized WHEN the merchants of death sell drone defeating technology to the rest of the world, including the "terrarists", just to have the US taxpayer foot the bill for a new generation of remote control killing machines. Buy stock in Lockheed and the rest of the war profiteers. Don't forget that the cops are using these "toys" now too.
