Thieme was a verbal "hatchet man" for "Big oil" seminars organized by HL Hunt. Thieme was a so-called expert on communist "brainwashing" techniques. Which? Thieme has reverse engineered into christian theology for corporate MIC agenda.

Also Barabara Bush attended this Church and currently lives less than 2 miles away in Houston, Tx.
Many people were upset when Barbara said(paraphrasing) that people in Katrina were "better off" in the Astrodome than were they came from in Louisiana. It is NO WONDER. The racist Thieme called black people "melanoderms" and said(paraphrasing) "that black people were lucky to have been slaves and they are "better off" than where they came from living in the jungle throwing spears at each other"

And, Dan Quayles wife grew up in this church.

It is easily could be called a "Big Oil political counter-revolutionary Church", but that would not be enough to describe it.

@John, thank you for that information! The GOP, I believe, hold meetings and tapes are shown; materials are handed out; and one message talking points are encouraged. Unless Americans wise up, we will brain washed by their garbage and nonsense. The GOP has been very effective in spreading hatred, corruption, and lies. American brains are too numb to even think of answers to resolve our many problems.

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:
"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."
David Korten, author of Agenda for a New Economy, The Great Turning, and When Corporations Rule the World
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:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
