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 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."
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."
If we hadn't gone there we wouldn't have the responsibility. We are just helipng American companies make money from the country.
We should have never gone to Iraq in the first place.
Iraqis need to take control of their country. When will this end ?
More money for the hawks like Cheney. If we keep getting involved,
we will never get out of there.
The founding fathers knew of the danger of religious base government that it could have on the country and its inhabitants. Have you ever heard of the Spanish Inquisition, how about radical Puritan faction known as the English Separatist Church. Today in the news there is a radical Islamic faction in Iraq that is killing innocent people because they don’t believe in their form of Islam, and they are committing genocide today. I do not support any type of genocide of religion, race or culture especially by a religious faction, which was tried once, in Hitler’s Germany, by the slaughtering of the Jewish and other non-Aryan cultures, which a religious base government can pursue. If you take some time study history, world history of religious, Theocracy governments as in the government of Iran, Afghanistan, most of your Islamic governments and other governments. You’ll find more times than not that such government tends to be a dictatorship, as is happening right now in Iraq. However, the elimination of this certain radical Islamic group, ISIS that they are committing genocide themselves, should be a priority for elimination by the total support of the industrialized nations in this world today. Their main goal is to conquer the world and emanating those who do not agree with their form of religious values. This is why the founding fathers of this country insisted in the separation of church and state. For this country will not have a religious dictatorship that can enslaved, tortured and eliminate citizens of their country for not believe in their form of a Superior Being.
