James Lee Burke : The Tin Roof Blowdown & Hurricane Katrina
The Tin Roof Blowdown, by James Lee Burke
Reviewed by Thom HartmannJames Lee Burke is, in my humble opinion, the best living writer in America. He's the Hemingway of our generation. One of my most valued possessions is a first edition of Purple Cane Road, one of his Dave Robicheaux novels. My son-in-law's father walked down the street to his friend Burke's house and asked him to autograph it to me as a Christmas gift.

Dean Baker : The Conservative Nanny State
The Conservative Nanny State, by Dean Baker - economist
Review by Thom Hartmann
It would be difficult to exaggerate the importance of "The Conservative Nanny State" by Dean Baker, a macroeconomist with a PhD in economics from the University of Michigan and co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research in Washington, DC.
It's brilliant, encompassing some of the most important and relevant economic issues of our day.
It's easy to read - at 108 pages and written with a comfortable average-guy style.

How bad are things? Worse than you ever could have imagined.
How good can they become? Better than you ever could have imagined.
Al Gore's film is about global warming and the life of Al Gore. Leonardo DiCaprio's new movie, "The 11th Hour," is about Everything.
This movie moves seamlessly from the global environmental crisis, to species loss, to crises in energy, trash, and toxins. The breadth is breathtaking.
